Have they tested this new antibody yet?


A key question. Another I have stems from quote below.

quote:

"As soon as it is infused, that patient is now immune to the disease," Dr. Brunswick said to Fox News. "For the length of time, the antibody is in that system. So, if we were approved [by the FDA] today, everyone who gets that antibody can go back to work and have no fear of catching COVID-19."


How long does it stay in body? Is it one stop shot? will it convey immunity for any length of time? I am guessing days to maybe weeks. Here is a reference for any other nerds that may be out there.

Tap the breaks. In-vitro results only. They don't even have an approved IND yet (approval to start testing in people.)

There are other neutralizing MAB that are further along in development.
