But, unless I am mistaken, recovery with them leaves you still susceptible to the disease. If you recover with your own antibodies, you are subsequently immunized. I think this is not true with the antivirals.

Does anyone know if my understanding is correct? If the recovered are still susceptible, are they more at risk?

The folks receiving these treatments are people who TESTING HAS REVEALED have already been exposed and their bodies have already produced antibodies which are fighting off the virus...just not completely successfully yet. These drugs become allies in fighting off the Coronavirus bugs.

Thank you!

So, the “test” being talked about is to show that you have antibodies for the virus, and not just the virus, itself? Is that correct?
