NewScientist: "Antibodies harvested from the blood of paediatricians are up to 25 times better at protecting against the common respiratory infection RSV than existing antibody therapies, and are now being developed as preventative treatments"

This is both so logical and yet absurdly like a science fiction story ...

I saw that TV show!

"This gives Ben immunity to every known disease and an estimated lifespan five to ten times that of other humans, making him, in the doctor's words, "virtually immortal". The billionaire decides that he has to control Richards' life so he can access his life-saving blood."

"When Richards rejects all of Braddock's offers to remain with him, the billionaire has him imprisoned, but he ultimately escapes."
