Experimental: Severe COVID-19 pneumonia
Hospitalized patients with SARS-CoV 2 severe infection will receive an anti SARS-CoV 2 Convalescent Plasma

Biological: Anti SARS-CoV 2 Convalescent Plasma in severe COVID-19 patients
Administration of Convalescent Plasma to COVID-19 obtained from donors with prior documented SARS-CoV 2 infection with IgG antibodies to hospitalized COVID-19 severe cases. |
Experimental: Critical COVID- 19 pneumonia
Hospitalized patients with SARS-CoV 2 critical infection will receive an anti SARS-CoV 2 Convalescent Plasma
|
Biological: Anti SARS-CoV 2 Convalescent Plasma in critical COVID-19 patients
Administration of Convalescent Plasma to COVID-19 obtained from donors with prior documented SARS-CoV 2 infection with IgG antibodies to hospitalized COVID-19 critical cases. |
