Florida surgeon general claims feds ‘preventing’ COVID antibody treatments
[EXCERPT]
Florida’s surgeon general has accused the Biden administration of “actively preventing” the distribution of monoclonal antibody treatments for COVID-19, causing an “immediate and life-threatening shortage of treatment options.”
In a letter to Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra Tuesday, Dr. Joseph Ladapo alleged that HHS had reduced the number of antibodies allocated to the Sunshine State earlier this year “without any advanced notice.”
“The sudden suspension of multiple monoclonal antibody therapy treatments from distribution to Florida removes a health care provider’s ability to decide the best treatment options for their patients in this state,” he wrote. “This shortsightedness is especially evident given that the federal government effectively prohibited states from purchasing these monoclonal antibodies and serving their populations directly.”
According to Ladapo, the reduction went into effect after Gov. Ron DeSantis ordered an increase in monoclonal antibody treatments to combat the Delta variant in August. By mid-September, treatment had been administered to nearly 100,000 people before Washington announced what the state surgeon general called a “dramatic reduction in the number of monoclonal antibodies to be allocated” to Florida.
Last week, HHS paused distribution of antibody treatments made by Regeneron and Eli Lilly, saying they were unlikely to be as effective against the Omicron variant that is believed to be responsible for fueling the recent surge in COVID-19 cases. It later revised that order Wednesday, saying the pause would only apply to states or territories in regions where Omicron made up at least 80 percent of COVID-19 cases.
They need to immediately sue. That is probably the only way.
They're blocking ALL the exits.
And Louisiana.
Send the FL Air National Guard to make procurement flights.
Is the GOP intelligent or courageous enough to run ads across the country highlighting the intentional murders of US citizens by Creepy Joe’s goons? No.
What no one in the government, pushing the vaccines-are-good-narrative don’t seem to be considering is, how is what they’re doing going to look in the “long” view?
Think about how things that happened historically look to us today. The phony Tonkin Gulf incident, for example. By not at least looking at alternative treatments...by, in effect, outlawing treatments...how will that play in two, three or ten years? I’m thinking people could go to prison when this is all over.
Very unethical.

Yep!
Just lost one of my mom’s nurses. Outfit she was with was making her get the clot shot.
Don’t blame her.
Wonder if FL NG has a Hercules with Puff installed? This cheap krap has to taper off soonest-—semper fi
Biden actually already halved the amount of antibody treatments we were getting in FL. DeSantis was able to obtain some from some other source, using state money. We should have sued then.
But it’s not too late now, and I agree, that’s the only way we’ll get them.
Biden wants to crush Florida.
When people understand that this administration is dangerous to your health, maybe they will wake up.
I pray they DO go to prison....and beyond.
If they were intelligent enough to create an ad, the media wouldn’t run them.
.....We absolutely need to start a NEW .... LGBTQ Movement .... LGBTQ = Let's Get Biden To Quit ..... Movement
It’s beyond belief.
