If effective, this treatment could protect vulnerable populations who haven t yet been vaccinated – or people who can t get inoculated because of health risks, scientists say. It also might help prevent large outbreaks in communities.
The University College London Hospitals NHS Trust in the United Kingdom is conducting a randomized, controlled trial to determine whether antibody donations are an effective COVID-19 treatment.
Volunteers who are exposed to a person with COVID-19 are given an injection of two different antibodies donated from people who are COVID-19 positive.
Ten people enrolled in the study already have been given the experimental antibody injection. The researchers expect to recruit a total of 1,000 volunteers.
