Does IVIG and Blood Products Contain Corona Virus?
The answer is NO.
"There have been NO reported transmissions of enveloped viruses by plasma protein therapies. There has been NO case of SAR-CoV2 transmission associated with blood transfusion. The data presented here should alleviate concerns about the safety of plasma derivatives with regards to SAR-CoV-2."

I have been off IVIG for a few years. (side effects). When COVID19 antibodies start showing up in IVIG I think I'll start it again. Assuming - lots of things.......... For starters - would IVIG with COVID19 antibodies protect me/other IVIG'ers from getting this awful virus - whenever?
