Israeli Hospital First in World to Test ‘Passive’ COVID-19 Vaccine

This is very encouraging news. Israel may very well become the first country to develop a COVID-19 vaccine. Not one drop should go to those who support the anti-Semitic BDS (Boycott the Jews) Movement.

Israeli Hospital First in World to Test ‘Passive’ COVID-19 Vaccine

By World Israel News, June 24, 2020

People infected with the coronavirus, or any virus for that matter, develop unique antivirus antibodies that could protect sick corona patients from life-threatening symptoms via “passive” immunization.

Hadassah Medical Center in Jerusalem on Tuesday became the first in the world to test a passive vaccine treatment for Coronavirus (COVID-19) by administering Immunoglobulin G (IgG).

Two months ago, Hadassah began collecting plasma rich with antibodies from recovered coronavirus patients, with the aim of producing a treatment for severely ill patients.

The plasmas collected from the recoverees were processed by the Kamada biopharmaceutical company at Kibbutz Beit Kama in the Negev for an IgG-based antibody treatment for corona patients in severe conditions.

Kamada, which develops and manufactures plasma-based drugs, has completed the production of the first dose of human plasma-based corona treatment for COVID-19, a move that has sparked widespread international interest.

Representing approximately 75% of serum antibodies in humans, IgG is the most common type of antibody found in blood circulation.

Hadassah administered the world’s first passive vaccine to a seriously ill patient, a young woman with previous illnesses whose CT results showed completely white lungs, and all known treatment methods have not improved her condition.

Several hours after receiving the treatment, the patient’s condition appears to have stabilized, giving room for cautious optimism.

The venture is operating with the approval of the Ministry of Health and in cooperation with Magen David Adom,

Hadassah CEO Professor Ze’ev Rothstein said that the hospital is “crossing its fingers” for the success of the treatment and thanked everyone who took part in this “complex operation.”

What has China contributed to the vaccine development? The CCP dictatorship steals every thing in sight and only Trump and Australia stand up to the dictatorship. Dictator and murderer, Xi Jinping will give his right arm for Sleepy Dementia China Joe to win.

More virus, selling back supplies they scooped up and others that are defective at inflated prices, is what China has offered.

That is how penicillin proved it’s worth. A young patient was dying of bacterial pneumonia, and the doctors gave her a shot of penicillin, in last-minute desperation. The experiential drug worked, and her recovery began within hours. Later on, randomized controlled clinical trials proved that penicillin worked in others too, and the rest is history. Bacterial pneumonia is quite treatable now, but viral pneumonia is still a very big problem.

It’s ify. CONVID 19 is a virus and not bacterial as was pneumonia.
We’ll see what happends! There seems to be mixed views on how to conquer this….

It’s important to understand the difference between bacteria and viruses. Bacteria are single-cell organisms that can live in various environments, including the human intestines, where they help to digest food, the Mayo Clinic explains. While some types of bacteria are harmless, or even helpful, to humans, others can cause diseases, such as strep throat. Bacterial infections can usually be treated with antibiotics.

Viruses, however, are smaller than bacteria and need a living host in order to multiply. They operate by taking over and hiding inside host cells. They cannot be treated with antibiotics.

I owe my life to penicillin…..in 1947 my Mom had a serious infection while pregnant with me…and I was past 9 months of pregnancy…..the doctors told my grandmother that both of us were going to die….he offered to save one of us….My grandmother demanded that they save both of us….he said the only thing they could use that was used in the war was penicillin…though he wasn’t sure it would work.
And the rest is history.

What is a passive vaccine and was it made with aborted fetal stem cell lines?

Who knows!
I’d like a definition of what a “passive” vaccine it.
We won’t be taking any vaccines for it.

No way here. They want to vaccine the whole world. I do not trust anything that has to do with vaccines. I do not care where it is made. Why are they so desperate to vaccinate the whole world?

Felix…..Active immunization is when we give you a vaccine and your immune system kicks into high gear, and sets up a series of reactions in your body to trick your body into thinking that you’ve actually had the disease. Passive immunization is when you get those pre-formed antibodies.May 11, 2019

A passive vaccine has no live virus in it. And no, if you read it it is made from blood plasma.

I have read otherwise. That any vaccine related to a virus is using aborted fetal stem cell lines. A passive vaccine would be no more effective than just getting the flu and getting over it.

You’ve been reading the wrong thing then. Most vaccines that use the live virus are actually grown in chicken eggs.

It’s unfortunate that the term “passive vaccine” is used since it’s not really a vaccine in the traditional sense. This appears to be a “proprietary technology” to purify sera containing antibodies from patients who have recovered from Covid19 so more appropriately it should be referred to as “passive immunity” or “treatment.” Labeling it as a “vaccine” gives the treatment a bad rap esp. to people leery of vaccines. Traditional vaccines contain antigens that produces “active immunity.” Their marketing department should really not use the word “vaccine.”

If any American authority tries to make me take any vaccine…..I WILL REFUSE…unless it comes from Israel…..otherwise, I’d stick with the “Hydro -z pac.” Because I know it works.

What is the truth about large doses of Vit C curing extreme cases quickly? Anyone?
