"Monoclonal antibodies could ease record Covid hospitalizations. Why are they going unused?"

Monoclonal antibodies must be given soon after a person has tested positive. "These medications work best when given early," Surgeon General Jerome Adams said during Thursday's briefing. The two monoclonal antibody products that have been authorized for emergency use by the FDA, from the drugmakers Eli Lilly and Regeneron, must be given within the first week of illness.

"Getting these therapeutics does not require having a PCR test," Redd said during Thursday's briefing. (A PCR, or polymerase chain reaction, test is considered the gold standard, but it can take days to get a result.)

Instead, Redd said, "a rapid test is quite appropriate." Rapid tests can return results within minutes, but they have higher rates of false negatives.


quote
Monoclonal antibodies are given intravenously, in an hourlong infusion, with an appointment lasting three to four hours. Because Covid-19 patients are contagious, they must be separated from other vulnerable patients who need outpatient infusions, such as those receiving chemotherapy for cancer.

Monoclonal antibodies like hydroxychloroquine ?

(hint: hydroxychloroquine is NOT a monoclonal antibody nor does it contain any monoclonal antibody or any other type antibody.)

I don't recall Trump saying Monoclonal antibodies should be used so they should be safe enough.

(pretty sure that is where you were going with that)

When President Trump had his case of 'rona, they treated him with monoclonal antibodies from the pharmaceutical company Regeneron. They also put him on an assortment of other medicines, some prescription and some Over The Counter. But not hydroxychloroquine.

What did Synthetic get when he went through his Covid Wringer ? How did Regeneron get this emergency FDA approval. Was there any CDC FDA approved study on hydroxychloroquine. Why not ?

Quaint yes, ignorant no. I did Google it. I also Dictionary.Com-ed monoclonal

Interesting. A clone. Biology.

a cell, cell product, or organism that is genetically identical to the unit or individual from which it was derived.
a population of identical units, cells, or individuals that derive from the same ancestral line.

a person or thing that duplicates, imitates, or closely resembles another in appearance, function, performance, or style:

All we have to do is clone the covid and take more ?

That's three questions. You've used up "Genie." You need another magic lamp.

OK. Three questions that you have the access to answer for yourself. Synthesis? I would review his personal Covid thread to see what he said about that.

There was government interest at the federal level in hydroxychloroquine. The federal government did some stockpiling of it, if I'm not mistaken.

Trump got too far out in front of it. He got out in front of his skis. Way too far out in front of his skis. He sounded like someone who wanted to be retailing it, like a Fuller Brush Man (for hydroxychloroquine.)

Let "cliffw" not be crucified (by himself) on a Cross of Trump.

Opps, my bad. My apologies Chris. I also need to apologize the Brennan, theBDub. I also called him theDBub. Brennan, somehow, every time I see you post, I think of your mother. I would consider it a favor if you would PM me about her.

Oh, I did read his drama novel. Interestingly enough, previous to him attempting suicide (he said someone tried to murder him) I posted my wife's Covid related experiences. Summing it up as a two week case of the flu. Chris nicely asked me to not say it is nothing, as he said, to some of us it is everything. I obliged. I think he programmed himself in to fearing it. I will never forget later, when he got it, his words. "I. Am. Terrified."

I didn't mind his drama novel. I think he fancies himself as a writer and was writing. Writing as a vocation is something I I should have explored. Writing and also advertising.

I know what he was treated with, per his divulgence. The same things you wonder why are not being used.

Stockpiling something which was in abundance of supply, that could be made by any qualified company ? Which was cheap ? Your not mistaken, you are rinselberg. Do you know of any government studies that explored Dr Emanual's claim. I know of more than a few positive for Covid who did use hydroxychloroquine. They are all alive and healthy.

Of the ones that presented actual symptoms of Covid--100 percent. These bad-looking lung X-rays keep on looking bad. I don't think that enough time has gone by yet to have a firm grasp of the longer and long-term implications for these people

I saw that post too. I had to chuckle. Was I supposed to FEAR FOR MY LIFE ? I have my own lung e-xray (from last year) that looks as least that bad, I think worse. I didn't have Covid. My longer and long-term implications ? I am gonna die. What should I do ?

I told my hospital care bots I wanted out of the hospital. They told me they were trying to keep me alive. The next day I told them I would rather die free (out of the hospital) than to be dead and alive in the hospital.

I left the hospital against the advice of the medical "scientists". I feel great, but I am gonna die.

Hey all, I contracted COVID back before Thanksgiving and have since recovered. I was offered HCQ but since my BP had been a little high the last several months it was contraindicated.

With my history of pneumonia I got the same prescription as I did for that - steroids for inflammation and antibiotics for prevention of secondary infection. Over the counter Mucinex and Tylenol and I was pretty much sick for about eight or nine days. Ivermectin wasn't being prescribed at the time and while it's not the sickest I've ever been, it wasn't fun. I think the fatigue that lingered was likely due to the drugs.

I'm donating convalescent plasma now and was told if I got the vaccine I couldn't do it again. I don't know why I'd bother since I'm in the 99.6% that recover and would rather be a part of helping the Herd© than selfishly indulge in a 95% effective vaccine with some associated risk.

In this time of High Anxiety I'd really like some perks for my selflessness (sarcasm) like... airline miles, hotel discounts, free Starbucks? We'll, actually I did get a coupon for a free appetizer at Carrabba's. It's a start.

It (Covid19) is not, & has never been about 'you'. (or me).
