According to the Washington Post:
quote:

"Therapeutic treatments (in addition to what we already have for the most sick patients) will arrive before vaccines. When someone contracts the novel coronavirus, his or her body’s immune system launches a defense, including producing antibodies that circulate in the blood to help identify infectious invaders. These circulating antibodies offer some protection against future infection (for how long, we still don’t know). Scientists have now engineered clones of these antibodies — what we call monoclonal antibodies — and they are showing to be effective both therapeutically and to prevent infection. They work by attacking the spike protein of the coronavirus, which is how this virus gets into our cells. Stop that from happening, and the virus can’t replicate inside the body.


For my fellow nerds: The injected monoclonal antibodies can bind to the gp120 envelope protein on the COVID19 virus and prevent it from binding to the CD4 receptor and co-receptor on the CD4+ host cell. That can slow down or stop the virus from entering the cell and stop the infection from either starting or spreading.

This kind of treatment, combined with other treatments presently being used, are advancing the treatment to make a real difference as the virus continues to spread widely. We have to do our part also, like don’t just expect to be saved and bailed out from reckless behavior. But this kind of advance can help tremendously.

Yes, it’s fascinating how many ways we can approach a problem we didn’t even know about 8months ago.
