I would aruge against the premise of this article that there's not enough data to support monoclonal use as an alternative to vaccination, in that, if 1 million rounds of monoclonals have been dispensed, there should be more than enough data on efficacy, and on side effects/adverse events. There's obviously recordkeeping of who received infusions. And there would be hospital records of those who were still hospitalized after getting an infusion.

It would be nice to see that data. But I'm still think monoclonals are the way to go for those who have tested positive and then developed worsening symptoms mostly because we don't hear about any adverse events.

Monoclonals have no where near the record of death and debility Covid 'vaccines' have. There's no comparison - the long term effects of the Covid 'vaccine' are only a problem for those who survive the short term effects. :/

Monoclonal Antibodies are Not meant to be a vaccine, but a therapeutic. I took it about 4 days after a verified covid test and felt better the next day and was well in a couple more.

You have to take the infusion within 10 days of a positive test. I should have antibodies enough to get by at least for 6 more months. It is not a vaccine though. It doesn't have all that crap in it from the vaccine. If we have monoclonal antibodies, Ivermectin, and hydroxycloriquin, IMO, we have enough to get by without the vaccine. India and a couple other places have killed covid in their countries by Ivermectin alone.

The article itself did offer the 85% number, for the reduction of hospitalization and death, so there clearly has been some data collection.

Also, these antibody treatments had to have trials to support their Emergency Use Authorizations, just like the vaccines, or any other drug.

The doctors that have posted about it on Free Republic (that I have seen), have been very positive about it - with one important caveat (also raised in the article). There are different types of antibody infusions for COVID, and they not equally safe or effective. That being said, the results are usually profoundly positive, if given early enough (before you need oxygen).

Anecdotally, my good friend who got hit hard with COVID plus pneumonia, reported that the antibody infusion (Regeneron) had him feeling noticeably better in just a few hours, and his fever broke overnight. President Trump and Rudy Giuliani experienced similar results.

I don’t know if it’s the antibodies, but Florida’s daily average deaths due to the virus is now down to 8 people. Texas, which has a somewhat higher virus rate, but still low (finally), still has an average of 200 people a day dying.

Florida took the lead with the antibodies - maybe this is the result...don’t know, since Florida’s death rate is so low now that it may make DeSantis look good, and so the media is keeping silent on it.

The ‘vaccine’ (gene therapy) isn’t a “vaccine substitute”, either. Oh, and I won’t take it. No matter what. I’m immune now anyway.

By the same headline, can’t it be said that the currently promoted vaccines are not substitutes for a real vaccine, either?

The data supporting these antibodies is much more limited than the extensive data supporting currently approved and authorized vaccines..

/\

Uh,

the antibodies data came into being upon the Covid “outbreak”..

The vaccine ( and data) didn’t exist till about 6 months latter..

So the data for vaccines is months less than the antibodies.

( or was the vaccine already in existence months before ?)

Propaganda I say !

But. maybe

our resident misinformation agent

will pop up to let us know what to really beleive soon.
