Which of the following does NOT describe a mechanism of action for a monoclonal antibody therapy in Alzheimer's Disease? OA. The antibodies recruit red blood cells to degrade the protein. B. The antibodies recruit cells within the immune system which can phagocytose the protein. OC. The antibodies present in the blood put proteins away from the brain, preventing accumulation in the brain. D. The antibodies triggers plaque disassembly by binding directly to amyloid beta.

COVID-19 is caused by infection with a novel corona virus, SARS-CoV-2. Testing someone for active infection involves examining samples taken from the nasal mucosa for fragments of the virus.

What are the suggested reasons why someone would possess antibodies to SARS-CoV-2.
