Focus On Vaccines Overlooks Life-Saving Antibody Therapies For Covid-19 Patients | Rachel Maddow
What has happened to our world? We have a known problem and a known helper and we are not using it?
UK studies have already proven that antibodie treatments don’t actually work. The US is the only place still pushing this. Bet you can fig out the motivation. 💰💰💰
Tested positive right before the new year. I’m immunosuppressed due to a transplant so not just high risk but the highest risk. Asked about monoclonal antibody treatment and everything else. A major university hospital in a major urban city had no access to such. So stop pushing these drugs. They might be available at a few sites where the clinical trials are underway but they are not otherwise available.
Luckily I responded well to steroids and recovered.
Why is it the patient that has to ask for it? If one gets cancer, does the doctor wait for us to tell him what treatment to do?
The Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance (flccc.net) recommends ivermectin (stromectol) a drug with a 30 plus year safety record. Why are they bring ignored?
Money. Why else.
Supplies are limited! Order now!

If you have a gold mine, you shouldn’t waste energy harvesting bat turds.
Antibodies is where it’s at 👍
Why aren’t doctors prescribing this? Why is the patient having to find out about this and advocate for it?
…and why are doctors prescribing Benzos for anxiety when they know that they will end up increasing anxiety. We need to be our own advocates, even with our doctors.
Are insurance companies saying no to monoclonal antibodies because of the cost and because it is expensive they aren’t allow patients to get it?
Didnt you say trump was pushing dangerous conspiracy theories when he said this exact same thing

this could have been over by now, either a hardcore lockdown for a couple weeks and let it die out or open everything up and let it run it’s course until heard immunity kicks in. but instead we’re gonna fight about it and flip flop for a year and still be in the same predicament. what a waste of time and money.
Biden’s vaccine rollout has been a disaster
Why aren’t they talking about ivermectin, too?
Peace be with you all. Praying for this lady hopefully one day she’ll say something positive
He looked disgusted by her.
This is so hard to understand because its a BIG LIE thats why it dont make sense or its confusing .
Therapy’s are sitting on the bench. Time to put lebron james in the game fda
I’m surprised MSNBC is talking about this; I’ve been saying it’s their fault that it’s been overlooked. I heard about stuff like this ages ago from Joe Rogan and his guests.
