The question is of significant clinical relevance, as SARS-CoV-2 cross-neutralizing antibodies in IVIGs, if they were present, might afford some protection to people with immune deficiencies and may even represent a treatment option for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients. The current study tested a representative number of IVIG lots for nAbs against SARS-CoV-2 and the longer-circulating HCoV-229E, to establish clarity about cross-neutralization of the pandemic virus by antibodies induced by earlier circulating seasonal coronaviruses. SARS-CoV-2 nAb titers were below the limit of detection for all 54 IVIG lots tested, irrespective of geographic origin of the plasma (Europe vs United States) and plasma collection modality (recovered vs source) ( Figure 1A) . ./cache/cord-327501-8s6dvanf.txt ./txt/cord-327501-8s6dvanf.txt
