The authors wish to thank all physicians, nurses, and assistant nurses who took care of the patients, clinical research assistants and clinical research doctors who included and followed the patients during the trial, physicians, nurses and staff involved in convalescent plasma collection, manufacturing, testing and issuing, and above all the patients who agreed to participate in the study and the convalescent donors who generously gave their plasma. Special thanks to the DRCI of Assistance Publique-Hôpitaux de Paris (APHP), the trial sponsor, and the Unité de Recherche de l'Est Parisien (URC-EST, APHP.SU, site St Antoine site), which managed the trial.
Role of the funding source The funders of the study had no role in study design, data collection, data analysis, data interpretation, or writing of the report. Contributors KL and PT were involved in the protocol design and study design, including conceptualization, methodology, funding acquisition, and resources.
