The life-saving antibody cocktail drug given to Donald Trump last year will be given to vulnerable NHS patients from next week.
Last month, Health Secretary Sajid Javid heralded Ronapreve as the first treatment designed specifically for Covid-19 to receive regulatory approval in the UK.
The Department for Health and Social Care said on Friday that it had the potential to benefit thousands of patients, with its rollout initially targeted at those who have not mounted an antibody response against Covid-19.
The Government has bought enough of the drug to treat eligible hospital patients across the UK from next week, the department said.
