Passive immunization (PI) may have its origins in the 1800’s, but it is still a useful weapon against infectious diseases like COVID-19. A new study compared the outcomes in two groups of dogs—one treated with hyperimmune plasma and the other a placebo—to ask if the principles behind PI can help speed the recovery of dogs suffering from canine parvovirus.

Read on to see if treatment with a commercially available hyperimmune plasma could make the difference in your next parvo patient.

The goal of passive immunization is to provide sufficient antibodies to fight disease before the recipient’s body makes its own antibodies. Does this approach hold promise in the treatment of canine parvovirus?
