COVID-19 infection tends to be more lethal in older persons than in the young; death results from an overactive inflammatory response, leading to cytokine storm and organ failure. Here we describe immune regulation of the inflammatory response phenotype as emerging from a process that is analogous to machine-learning algorithms used in computers. We briefly describe some strategic similarities between immune learning and computer machine learning. We reason that a balanced response to COVID-19 infection might be induced by treating the elderly patient with a wellness repertoire of antibodies obtained from healthy young people. We propose that a beneficial training set of such antibodies might be administered in the form of intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg).
