One of the most disconcerting aspects of the COVID-19 pandemic is the wide range of presentations that occur across patients. Some are asymptomatic, only finding out that they had the virus through antibody testing, while others can have severe respiratory syndromes requiring a ventilator to stay alive.

While this phenomenon may still baffle us, there is a possible explanation of what is causing such severe lung damage in the most serious cases. The proposed mechanism deals with a process called an antibody-dependent enhancement, and it may have implications in both treating patients with acute infection and the development of a COVID-19 vaccine in the future.
