Antibodies grown in the lab have proven to block COVID-19 in the Netherlands & Israel & this could come up as a new tool to stop the spread of the infection. Scientists created monoclonal antibodies that can neutralise SARS-CoV2 to prevent human cells from getting infected. The antibodies were found to have blocked the infection in human cells. Monoclonal antibody treatment looks promising but needs extensive trials.
