(C;C) 2.9 possible miscall in Ancestry v2.0 datasets; otherwise, probably more susceptible to influenza
(C;T) 1.5 carrier of one allele linked to greater influenza susceptibility
(T;T) 0 more resistant to influenza

rs12252(C;C) individuals have been reported in one study to be more susceptible to influenza and to complications from it.

This has also been flagged by Promethease (as of June 2016) as potentially a SNP prone to being miscalled in data derived from the AncestryDNA v2.0 chips.
