Abstract

The project concerns immunity, hereunder the possibility to examine specific antibodies generated by COVID-19 patients during and after the disease (both severe and mild cases). The project aims to examine whether those antibodies produced in patients during COVID-19 may boost immunity in new patients or patients in risk groups and in this way support the treatment of the next wave of COVID patients
