Psaki confirms suspicions about monoclonal treatment shutdown
American Thinker ^ | 2 Feb, 2022 | Matt Dean

Posted on 02/02/2022 4:50:26 AM PST by MtnClimber

The monoclonal antibody ban is actually about Governor Ron DeSantis.

On January 24, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) shut down Florida’s popular monoclonal treatment sites. Without warning, the FDA revised its emergency use authorization (EUA) to cancel appointments for thousands of Floridians who were to be treated for mild to moderate COVID-19 with monoclonal antibodies.

The FDA cites the ineffectiveness of the monoclonal antibody treatments against the new omicron variant. Florida governor Ron DeSantis fired back that this was simply the latest in a series of threats to punish Florida patients and their doctors.

White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki’s response left no doubt that this latest ham-fisted move was designed to chastise Florida and threaten other governors who challenge the administration’s strategy on COVID-19. Psaki simply announced that monoclonal antibodies “do not work against Omicron.” But if Jen’s word isn’t good enough, she added, “this is what scientists are saying” gesticulating in her trademark flourishing hand movements.

The CDC still estimates that the majority of COVID-19 deaths in mid-January 2022 were from the Delta variant. Many Floridians who are sick today are ill from Delta. Moreover, if the Delta variant accounted for 1 percent (the low end of estimates) of the 1.2 million cases in the past month in Florida, more than 10,000 Floridians who would undoubtedly benefit from monoclonal antibodies are now out of luck.

If Trump had done this to New York or California what would the MSM be reporting?

The Biden administration is packed, top to bottom, with criminals.

The Biden regime is wiling to kill people for the political benefit of destroying DeSantis. The MSM is wiling to run cover for the regime.

So, the "Party of the Ratz" knowingly allows citizens to die for political gain!?

That would seem to be the definition of "Impeachable Offense".

Saying? I thought large, double-blind studies were the only scientific test acceptable to analyzing COVID treatments? Or is that true only for treatments like hydroxychloroquine, ivermectin, zinc and vitamin D which might overturn the medical-industrial gravy train?

See my #5.

They have just revealed their “calling card” is to starve ill people of effective thetapeutic medicine.

How many times will they be permitted to do this before we get a war crimes tribunal up and running?

Our political opponents are evil. Review the fast and furious , gunwalker op. Our govt using atf helped traffic assault weapons into mexico in order to then claim the violence in mexico was the fault of lax gun laws in the US. Those cynical bast#rds didn’t care that innocent mexicans would die as long as hrc could make political hay out of the issue. The one good thing to come out of F&F is that for a couple of years the msm didn’t want to touch the gun issue for fear they’d have to talk about the corruption in the atf.

Right. Monoclonals are only effective in the early stages and by mid January 99% of new cases were Omicron.

Talking about deaths is a red herring.

No no...all you need is to be a PhD (in anything) , a teacher (of something) or a politician (who knows nothing)...and youre an expert. Peer reviewed random control studies are meaningless.

Does anyone think that single-payer health insurance won’t be politicalized?
