An Antibody Cocktail Combats The Deadly Ebola Virus And Sudan Virus

TheScienceBreaker, 2023
There are several deadly viruses in the ebola virus family, but current antibody treatments are effective against only one. Our work discovered two antibodies from human survivors, and their benefit when combined together in a cocktail, to provide broader protection at a lower dose. We reveal surprising findings of how they act to achieve protection.
