LONDON, December 26. /TASS/. A medicine that can potentially prevent people exposed to novel coronavirus from developing COVID-19 is now being tested in the United Kingdom, the Guardian reported on its website Friday.
The medicine, based on monoclonal antibodies created in a laboratory, was developed by UK-Swedish pharmaceutical company AstraZeneca and the University College London Hospitals. If we can prove that this treatment works and prevent people who are exposed to the virus going on to develop Covid-19, it would be an exciting addition to the arsenal of weapons being developed to fight this dreadful virus, said Dr Catherine Houlihan, a UCLH virologist who is leading a study into the drug.
