The Highly Effective Covid Treatment Joe Biden Won’t Tell You About

“This is the golden goose, okay, this is what we need, and we’ve got a short window to get these people treated,” said Dr. David Thrasher, a pulmonologist from Alabama. “This is the only thing in COVID that I’ve seen that is not controversial.”

“It is incredibly effective if given early enough,” Dr. Overton said of the antibody treatment, adding that the care is “lifesaving.”

Dr. Sujesh Pillai, Chief of Staff for Huntsville Memorial, said the hospital administered more than 50 infusions in a matter of two weeks, and only one person had to be admitted to the hospital.

“When you get the infusion treatment, it’s a one-hour IV infusion that we do in the hospital. You’re not admitted. You go home right after it’s done,” Pillai said. “It’s very well tolerated. It has been shown to have about 70 to 80% chance of preventing you from developing severe COVID or ending up coming to the hospital at all and helping you get a full recovery.”

Erin McCreary, director of stewardship innovation at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, called the treatment “absolutely the standard of care for COVID-19. It is my hope that clinics know that.”

Last week, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R), who is without question leading the way to promote both vaccine and early care like antibody treatment, suggested some public health officials bypassed promotion of the treatment in an effort to drive behavior. Basically, officials were scared if Americans knew about the highly effective treatment, they might forgo a vaccine. DeSantis emphasized the importance of vaccination but criticized those, in his opinion, neglecting to inform the public about all their options and care.

...."The monoclonal antibody series was created using embryonic kidney cells"...

That's not exactly true. The cells were infected and the antibodies were tested on the fetal cells and some mouse cells to see if the antibodies worked. The actual medicine didn't come from the fetal cells.

Think of monoclonal antibodies as plasma with antibodies from a cured covid patient. To test it they used human fetal cells infected with covid. They also used mouse cells changed to human like cells to test it. It works. It lowers the virus load if you use it early enough. If you are already hospitalized, it may not lower the load enough to allow nature to cure the virus. It just gives a head start to the antibodies. Just mentioning "fetal cells" doesn't necessarily mean they are injected inside the patient. They just used them to prove it worked on human type cells containing covid.

Monoclonal antibodies works on several diseases including some cancers using a different base chemical to start with. This is not "new".

You need to ask what the requirements are to get it. Most have to be a certain age and be overweight with diabetes and other things. A healthy person in middle age probably won’t qualify. My wife is reasonably healthy but could win it for me even if she gets covid so I wouldn’t get it. I have about every comorbidity you can have.
