Coronavirus treatment: Llamas may help save humans from Covid-19, say scientists | News24

• Scientists are looking to llamas to help curb the spread of the deadly Covid-19 pandemic.
• They are extracting antibodies from llamas to test the development of both treatments and diagnostic tests.
• This project is in its infancy.

In the United Kingdom, as elsewhere, the search is on for effective treatments to combat the novel coronavirus. And in Reading, scientists have turned to a herd of llamas to provide very small antibodies, which they believe could neutralise the virus.
