+<H2>Description</H2>
+<p>
+This track set shows <b>GWAS meta-analyses</b> from the 
+<a target=_blank href="https://www.covid19hg.org/">
+<b>COVID-19 Host Genetics Initiative (HGI)</b></a>, 
+a collaborative project bringing together the human genetics community to facilitate 
+the generation, analysis and sharing of COVID-19 host genetics research.
+The COVID-19 HGI organizes meta-analyses across multiple studies contributed by 
+<a target="_blank" href="https://www.covid19hg.org/partners/">partners world-wide</a>
+to learn the genetic determinants of SARS-CoV-2 infection susceptibility, disease severity and 
+outcomes, and provides a platform to share the results from such activities, as well as 
+the individual-level data where possible.
+</p>
+<p>
+The specific phenotypes studied by the COVID-19 HGI are those that benefit
+from maximal sample size. The primary analysis focuses on disease severity.
+Two meta-analyses are represented in this track:
+
+<ul>
+<li><b>ANA_C2_V2</b>: covid vs. population (6696 cases from 18 studies)</li>
+<li><b>ANA_B2_V2</b>: hospitalized covid vs. population (3199 cases from 8 studies)</li>
+</ul>
+
+<H2>Display Conventions</H2>
+<p>
+Displayed items are colored by <b>GWAS effect</b>:  red for positive, blue for negative. 
+The height of the item reflects the <b>effect size</b> (log OR scale).
+The color saturation indicates <b>statistical significance</b>: greater than .05 pValue are 
+brightly colored (bright red
+<span style='background-color: #ff0000;'>&nbsp;&nbsp;</span>
+, bright blue
+<span style='background-color: #0000ff;'>&nbsp;&nbsp;</span>
+),
+those with less significance are paler (light red
+<span style='background-color: #ffa0a0;'>&nbsp;&nbsp;</span>
+, light blue
+<span style='background-color: #a0a0ff;'>&nbsp;&nbsp;</span>
+).
+</p>
+
+<p>
+Each track has separate display controls and data can be filtered according to the
+<b>number of studies</b>, <b>minimum -log10 p-value</b>, and the 
+<b>effect size on log(OR) scale</b>, using the track <b>Configure</b> options.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+<b>Mouseover</b> on items shows the rs ID (or chrom:pos if none assigned), both the non-effect 
+and effect alleles, 
+the effect size on log(OR) scale, the -log10 p-value, and the number of studies.
+Further information on each variant is displayed on the details page by a click onto any item.
+</p>  
+
+<H2>Methods</H2>
+<p>
+Data was generated from genome wide SNP array, exome and genome sequencing, leveraging the impact 
+of both common and rare variants. Statistical analysis takes into account differences between 
+sexes, ancestries, and date of sample collection. More information about the prospective studies, 
+processing pipeline, results and data sharing can be found 
+<a target=_blank href="https://www.covid19hg.org/about/">here</a>.

+
+
+<H2>Data Access</H2>
+<p>
+The data underlying these tracks and summary statistics results are publicly available in 
+<a target=_blank href="https://www.covid19hg.org/results">COVID19-hg Release 3 (June 2020)</a>.
+The raw data can be explored interactively with the <a target="_blank" href="../cgi-bin/hgTables">
+Table Browser</a>, or the <a target="_blank" href="../cgi-bin/hgIntegrator">Data Integrator</a>. 
+For automated analysis, the data may be queried from our <a target="_blank"
+href="/goldenPath/help/api.html">REST API</a>. Please refer to
+our <a href="https://groups.google.com/a/soe.ucsc.edu/forum/#!forum/genome"

+
+<H2>Credits</H2>
+<p>
+Thanks to the COVID-19 Host Genetics Initiative contributors and project leads for making these 
+data available, and in particular to Rachel Liao and Juha Karjalainen at the Broad Institute for
+their review and input during browser track development.
