Data for this study were acquired at RSUI using a retrospective cross-sectional method. The sample is infected patients with COVID-19 from January 2021 to December 2021 who received RDV therapy. The parameters of the effectiveness of the treatment was a reduction of minimally 2 points on the WHO Clinical Progression Scale after 14 days of Remdesivir administration.Results: RDV effectiveness percentage shows 57.5% of patients experienced clinical improvement. The analysis results of the effect of blood type variations on clinical outcomes significantly affect the effectiveness of RDV therapy (OR: 1.705, 95% CI: 1.091–2.665; p = 0.019) but insignificant in terms of mortality status (OR: 0.654, 95% CI: 0.383–1.117; p = 0.120).Conclusion: Blood type variations significantly affected the effectiveness of RDV therapy in infected COVID-19 patients.
