Monoclonal Antibody Treatment
Why is NY not pushing this for people without covid? I am hearing it works wonders for people WITH covid (know someone who just did it who had covid) but in FL you can get it without having covid.
We are pushing the vaccine here more than we are pushing this treatment it seems.

Re: Monoclonal Antibody Treatment
Wait I'm confused, they are giving this to healthy people?
As a preventative?

Monoclonal Antibody Treatment
I think it’s only for people who tested positive or were exposed but are high risk and unvaccinated.

Re: Monoclonal Antibody Treatment
My primary said you can only get it if you're positive for COVID and have underlying medical issues that could cause a severe case. A friend of mine received it when he was sick with COVID due to high blood pressure and diabetes.

Monoclonal Antibody Treatment
This is also the same as “follow the money” with the vaccine then, right? It also seems to be a novel concept. But considering people are dropping like flies in Florida, I guess DeSantis has to do something.
From Miami Herald:
REGEN-COV consists of two investigational medicines, casirivimab and imdevimab, given together at the same time through an IV infusion or four injections. Patients will have to wait at the site for about an hour to make sure they don’t get side effects.

That's not true. You have to be sick to receive the treatment, even in FL.
Antibody treatment
More than a dozen state-run centers have opened across Florida offering free monoclonal antibody treatment to people sick with COVID-19 and considered to be high risk for severe illness or death.
Often, people who visit these centers feel really sick. The therapy given to them — REGEN-COV by the biotechnology company Regeneron — is designed to give the immune system an extra boost to help combat the disease, enough to hopefully keep them out of the hospital.
----------------
The treatment is for people 12 and older, regardless of vaccination status, who have tested positive and are considered to be “high risk” for severe COVID illness, including hospitalization and death. High-risk people 12 and older who were exposed to COVID and are either not fully vaccinated or have an immunocompromised condition that has lowered their immune response to the vaccine are also eligible.
Some of the conditions the FDA considers to be high risk include diabetes, obesity, chronic lung disease (including moderate to severe asthma), and cardiovascular disease (including congenital heart disease) or hypertension.

Yeah I was confused because I was like- if you aren't sick why would you be getting this treatment?

Exactly. It would be like taking nose spray and cold meds when you're not even sick. lol

Not true I was just talking to my gf in FL this morning and she got it and has not had covid and is not high risk.

So why did she get it though? Like what made her decide to go and get some antibodies? Was she exposed? Work in a high exposure environment like a doctor or hospital?

Then she lied to get it or is lying to you. The requirements for receiving the treatment are you're positive for COVID and high risk. Ask any doctor and read any article on the treatment being given in FL. You're spreading misinformation. Period.
ETA - When I had COVID I spoke with my dr about the treatment. Antibodies are NOT be given to anyone who isn't currently sick with COVID or high risk. It's not a preventive drug, it's a treatment to help those already sick and at risk for hospitalization.

I am thinking because her daughter tested positive for covid even though it was barely a cold.

Read the articles from any newspaper in FL, they clearly state the requirements for receiving the antibody treatment. It's also on the FL Dept of Health website. It has nothing to do with what I "believe," it's just simple facts.

Re: Monoclonal Antibody Treatment
Since you brought up this topic VB/windy/hazel I'm curious as to why you're seemingly "ok" with and excited about an antibody infusion, which by the way is NOT FDA approved and only has emergency authorization, but yet you have yourself twisted in knots over the vaccine. Seems odd that you refuse to get the vaccine because of the "potential dangers" but yet you wouldn't have a problem infusing a non-FDA approved chemical treatment into your body instead. You seem confused.

Once again, I listen more to actual people than the requirements they state which they HAVE to.
I am sure there are many places that bend their rules and this person knows more than we do as she lives there.

I am ok with anything that will help others get better and/or not get sick in the first place.
Never said I would do this or get the vaccine nor said if I ever had it or have gotten the vaccine. All assumptions on your part.
You don't like the fact that you are wrong and trying to push it back on me.

Wrong about what exactly? You don't seem to understand what the monoclonal treatment actually is, how it's used or that it's not even FDA approved. I actually had COVID and spoke with my doctor about it at the time so unlike you, I actually do know what I am talking about.
That aside, it's odd to me that you're "ok with anything that will help others get better and/or not get sick in the first place" but at the same time you're very much anti COVID vaccine. So weird seeing as how the vaccine is a PREVENTIVE treatment which helps people to avoid severe COVID illness, hospitalization and possible death so if you are "ok with anything that will help people not get sick" it makes NO sense to be completely against the vaccine.
The monoclonal antibodies do not PREVENT a person from getting COVID, they are a treatment for high risk individuals once they are already ill. And again, for someone who has been hell bent on vaccines being given before they were FDA approved I am not understanding how you're "ok" with giving people an experimental non-FDA approved infusion of antibodies.
Your logic doesn't make sense. You seem to waiver both ways.
