"Mysterious cell that remembers viruses for decades could be body’s COVID-19 weapon" https://www.nbcnews.com/science/science-news/...ientists-hope-so-n1232794 Within two to three months, 40 percent of the asymptomatic people had antibody levels that dropped below the threshold to test positive in antibody tests, compared to 12.9 percent of those who had symptoms. Few days ago read about an absence of antibodies was not necessarily a sign we had not developed immunity, T-Cells coming to the rescue. Much much much to learn, but the toolkit to treat the 'symptom' part of the disease is expanding. |

Just reading that a study with convalescent plasma has been stopped abruptly. Treating those arriving for hospital care is already too late... they all already have antibodies which makes it impossible to determine ifs the plasma added antibody load is effective at all.
