A friend got the monoclonal antibodies after being sick for two weeks. He felt better the same day and great the next. Now Biden has restricted our state’s access to the medicine.

“Vaccine” sellers lose money, that’s why.

Why Aren't They Being Promoted?

Because the government has been loathe to do anything that puts the push for vaccines in jeopardy.

If there was a quick treatment for after you get COVID-19, then why need the vaccine that doesn't prevent you from getting COVID-19 anyway?

Just skip the vaccine and take the monoclonal antibodies if you get COVID-19.

It seems as if the government's agenda wasn't to stop people from dying from COVID-19, or they would be aggressively pushing monoclonal antibodies.

Instead, they are pushing the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines, and withholding monoclonal antibodies from states with Republican governors as political punishment, inevitably leading to more COVID-19 hospitalizations and death.

Which is EXACTLY the same experience that President Trump had at Walter Reed. He checked in to the hospital on Friday, got his Regeneron infusion, and left on the Monday of the following week. Remember, he was 74 years old then !! Astonishing for a man his age !!

They aren’t being promoted because they work very well. If people aren’t sick then there’s no fear the elites can leverage to control us—no population control.

No money in it for Big Pharma and the corrupt politicians who receive campaign contributions and kickbacks from them.

When Government gets entangled with Science you get fake science. The Soviet Union embraced the fake science of Lysenkoism with disastrous results. We are seeing the same thing with Covid and Climate change. It is like fighting witchcraft.

The whole thing is highly politicized. It’s almost like it was planned; responses that go outside the planned timeline are suppressed, while the planned responses are supported and promoted by many parts of the government and pharmaceutical industry. It’s pretty easy to tell which are which.

RE: No money in it for Big Pharma

Aren’t Regeneron and Ely Lilly big pharma?

I mean in 2020, Regeneron had annual revenue of close to $2.5 Billion while Moderna had a mere $800 Million.

BUT — in 2021, following the EUA of their Covid vaccine, Moderna revenue for the quarter ending June 30, 2021 was $4.354B, a 6398.51% increase year-over-year.

While Regeneron’s Second quarter 2021 revenues increased 163% to $5.14 billion versus second quarter 2020 including $2.76 billion attributable to REGEN-COV.

Clearly it isn’t all about how big a pharma is. There’s got to be other factors involved ( e.g. who in the decision making body have financial stakes in the vaccines ).

Here's a video of Dr. Vladimir Zelenko from July, discussing treatments for the CCP-Coronavirus before the patient gets to the hospital. Zinc and Hydroxychloroquine are EXTREMELY effective early on, yet the medical community, led by Dr. Anthony Death, suggest to just leave people until they need a ventilator, then ventilate and let them die.

That’s why it’s being restricted by the Biden administration. The fellow who got the antibodies here was told he was the only non-vaccinated person they treated all day. He was their last patient of the day.

Looks like it needs to be administered early.

https://www.regeneron.com/downloads/treatment-covid19-eua-fact-sheet-for-patient.pdf

Scroll down to...

“WHAT IS REGEN-COV (casirivimab and imdevimab)?

REGEN-COV is an investigational medicine used in adults and adolescents (12 years of age and older who weigh at least 88 pounds (40 kg)) who are at high risk for severe COVID-19, including hospitalization or death for:

• treatment of mild to moderate symptoms of COVID-19

• post-exposure prevention of COVID-19 in persons who are:
o not fully vaccinated against COVID-19 (Individuals are considered to be fully vaccinated 2 weeks after their second vaccine dose in a 2-dose series [such as the Pfizer or Moderna vaccines], or 2 weeks after a single-dose vaccine [such as Johnson & Johnson’s Janssen vaccine]), or,
o are not expected to build up enough of an immune response to the complete COVID-19 vaccination (for example, someone with immunocompromising conditions, including someone who is taking immunosuppressive medications),
and

 have been exposed to someone who is infected with SARS-CoV-2. Close contact with someone who is infected with SARS-CoV-2 is defined as being within 6 feet for a total of 15 minutes or more, providing care at home to someone who is sick, having direct physical contact with the person (hugging or kissing, for example), sharing eating or drinking utensils, or being exposed to respiratory droplets from an infected person (sneezing or coughing, for example). For additional details, go to

https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/if-you-aresick/quarantine.html, or

 someone who is at high risk of being exposed to someone who is infected with SARS-CoV-2 because of occurrence of SARS-CoV-2 infection in other individuals in the same institutional setting (for example, as nursing homes, prisons,).”

There are also the side effects. Regeneron.com. Scroll down to the side effects subheader.

FACT SHEET FOR PATIENTS, PARENTS AND CAREGIVERS EMERGENCY USE AUTHORIZATION (EUA) OF REGEN-COVTM (casirivimab and imdevimab) FOR CORONAVIRUS DISEASE 2019 (COVID-19)
https://www.regeneron.com/downloads/treatment-covid19-eua-fact-sheet-for-patient.pdf

WHAT ARE THE IMPORTANT POSSIBLE SIDE EFFECTS OF REGEN-COV (casirivimab and imdevimab)?
Possible side effects of REGEN-COV are:
• Allergic reactions. Allergic reactions can happen during and after infusion or injection of REGEN-COV. Tell your healthcare provider right away or seek immediate medical attention if you get any of the following signs and symptoms of allergic reactions: fever, chills, nausea, headache, shortness of breath, low or high blood pressure, rapid or slow heart rate, chest discomfort or pain, weakness, confusion, feeling tired, wheezing, swelling of your lips, face, or throat, rash including hives, itching, muscle aches, feeling faint, dizziness and sweating. These reactions may be severe or life threatening.
• Worsening symptoms after treatment: You may experience new or worsening symptoms after infusion or injection, including fever, difficulty breathing, rapid or slow heart rate, tiredness, weakness or confusion. If these symptoms occur, contact your healthcare provider or seek immediate medical attention as some of these symptoms have required hospitalization. It is unknown if these symptoms are related to treatment or are due to the progression of COVID-19.

The side effects of getting any medicine by vein may include brief pain, bleeding, bruising of the skin, soreness, swelling, and possible infection at the infusion site. The side effects of getting any medicine by subcutaneous injection may include pain, bruising of the skin, soreness, swelling, and possible infection at the injection site.

These are not all the possible side effects of REGEN-COV. Not a lot of people have been given REGEN-COV. Serious and unexpected side effects may happen. REGEN-COV is still being studied so it is possible that all of the risks are not known at this time.

It is possible that REGEN-COV could interfere with your body’s own ability to fight off a future infection of SARS-CoV-2. Similarly, REGEN-COV may reduce your body’s immune response to a vaccine for SARS-CoV-2. Specific studies have not been conducted to address these possible risks. Talk to your healthcare provider if you have any questions.

No need optó try and get complicated with the answer.

Does Blackrock or Vanguard have controlling shares in the companies that make the stuff?

If they don’t, then that’s why they aren’t promoted.
