It severely damages the broiler industry, and results in reduced meat production and feed conversion ratio. Present review will provide a brief note on infectious bronchitis virus infection in poultry especially in broilers. Furthermore, this review will provide evidence that ostrich IgY is a powerful weapon against infectious bronchitis infection in poultry farms. Based on previous research and ostrich IgY potential to cure infectious bronchitis it could be assumed that development of antibody vaccines for new type corona viruses, COVID 19, SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV could be beneficial to control new type corona viruses.
