New York NY,  Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City recently announced that researchers would begin the process of transferring antibodies from people who have recovered from COVID-19 to critically ill COVID-19 patients. The Icahn School of Medicine had reported that they are working on a diagnostic test for COVID-19 that detects antibodies in sick and recovered individuals, rather than genomic information. Media reports suggest that researchers have begun to contact recovered COVID-19 patients in an effort to receive plasma donations. If it works, the blood plasma of people who have recovered from covid-19 would be used to protect health-care workers and help sick people get well.
