We reported on five people with MS, using immunodepleting disease modifying treatments (anti-CD20 monoclonal antibodies and sphingosine-one-phosphate modulators) and with reduced COVID-19 vaccine response, who had mild-to-moderate symptomatic COVID-19, and were treated with anti-SARS-CoV-2 monoclonal antibodies. In particular, we showed the possibility to use monoclonal antibodies to speed-up recovery from COVID-19 in MS, in the absence of any COVID-19 residuals or MS changes (e.g., relapses or disability).
