Scientists Make Major COVID-19 Breakthrough as New Antibody Discovered From NeonNettle: Scientists have made a major breakthrough in the fight against COVID-19 after discovering an antibody that blocks infection by the deadly coronavirus, according to reports.The European researchers say they’ve found an antibody that attacks SARS-CoV-2, the coronavirus behind the current global pandemic.The antibody targets the coronavirus's infamous "spike protein," which it uses to insert its genetic material by hooking onto cells.Tests in mice cells show that antibody, known as 47D11, effectively neutralizes the virus by binding to this protein and preventing it from hooking on. The significant breakthrough offers hope of a treatment for the China-born disease COVID-19, which has killed over 250,000 people so far.Researchers say that if the antibody is injected into humans, it could alter the "course of infection" or protect an uninfected person fro READ MORE: https://neonnettle.com/news/11195-scientists-make-major-covid-19-breakthrough-as-new-antibody-discovered © Neon Nettle
