Based on survey responses from physicians and families of SCID children.

Identified early is based on known family history of SCID, prior to manifestation of infections.

Identified late is defined as confirmed with SCID after manifestation of infections.

%

Twenty out of 32 SCID patients identified late died.

**

Ten out of the 23 SCID patients transplanted died.

$

All eight SCID patients without HCT died.
