Brief Summary:
Currently there are no proven treatment option for COVID-19. Human convalescent plasma is an option for COVID-19 treatment and could be available from people who have recovered and can donate plasma.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Pneumonia, Interstitial Biological: high-titer anti-Sars-CoV-2 plasma Other: oxygen therapy Phase 1

Detailed Description:
Experience from prior outbreaks with other coronaviruses, such as SARS-CoV-1 shows that convalescent plasma contains neutralizing antibodies to the relevant virus. In the case of SARS-CoV-2, the anticipated mechanism of action by which passive antibody therapy would mediate protection is viral neutralization. The only antibody type that is currently available for immediate use is that found in human convalescent plasma. As more individuals contract COVID-19 and recover, the number of potential donors will continue to increase. The investigators seek to treat participants who are sick enough to warrant hospitalization prior to the onset of overwhelming disease.
