Imperfect storm: is interleukin-33 the Achilles heel of COVID-19?

Abstract
The unique cytokine signature of COVID-19 might provide clues to disease mechanisms and possible future therapies. Here, we propose a pathogenic model in which the alarmin cytokine, interleukin (IL)-33, is a key player in driving all stages of COVID-19 disease (ie, asymptomatic, mild–moderate, severe–critical, and chronic–fibro
