My first thought is that this is the same as taking plasma from recovered coronavirus patients, but that is not the case. Convalescent plasma is said to stay effective outside the body for only one to eight days. Manufactured antibodies may be easier to use, but still we need to know, how well will they work, and are they affordable enough for mass use?
