British scientists are working on the hypothesis that a person exposed to the Sars-CoV-2 coronavirus take the disease caused by the virus. The drug could guarantee a immunity righ now against Covid for 6-12 months. The study is led by the professor Catherine Houlihan, virologist at the University College London Hospitals NHS Trust (UCLH). “If we could show that this treatment works and can prevent people exposed to the virus from developing Covid-19, it would add another element to the arsenal of weapons that is being developed to combat this terrible virus,” he explained in a statement. Interview with Guardian.
The drug they discovered UCLH and AstraZeneca, the pharmaceutical companies that with the University of Oxford found one of the vaccines anti-coronavirus. This new drug would be available by March or April if it passes all the scientific evidence. “Medicines based on monoclonal antibodies could guarantee immediate immunity, unlike vaccines (which require two doses to provide complete immunity).” The main difficulty, writes the Corriere della Sera, are the very high costs: but they could be decisive in the weapons to be adopted against the virus, along with vaccines and classic measures such as spacing, masks and hygiene.
