Abstract

One of the most puzzling questions facingboth parents and pediatricians is whysome children suffer severe and life-threatening infections, while others who are exposedto the same pathogen remain uninfected orsuffer only mild illness. There is now growingevidence that differences in host genetics playa major role in determining susceptibility andoutcome of childhood infections,1 in additionto environmental factors such as pathogenvirulence and exposure dose
