Breast Milk Antibodies Could Provide COVID-19 Cure

Users claimed that breast milk from mothers who tested positive for COVID-19 did not contain the virus itself, but did contain antibodies. 

Could the cure to Covid-19 be in #breastmilk?

🤔

Breastmilk of mothers with #COVID19 did not contain any SARS-CoV-2 but did contain SARS-CoV-2 antibodies. When SARS-CoV-2 was added to the milk of women with COVID-19, it was neutralised by the breastmilk. https://t.co/ZNtxKFYkAJ pic.twitter.com/fFU0Ga5njN
