Would be helpful if he would go to the podium and say early treatment with monoclonal antibody infusion was the standard of care, like he did with remdesivir which doesn't work. Guess he doesn't own stock in regeneron
Falsuchi would probably prescribe a supository and double masking and send your ass home to die

Thanks for the heads up. Do you have anything a person not a doctor could understand that I could send her explaining it?
Mea culpa. Apologies.

Simple explanation is they will give you extra antibodies just in case your body didn't make enough from the vaccine. (not totally scientifically accurate lol)
Takes about an hour, then they'll have you hang out for about an hour just to make sure you feel okay. Then you go home. But it's an early treatment you can't wait and see how sick you get and then decide. If you're at the point of needing the hospital it's too late to get them.
Abbot ordered more infusion sites. I think SA just opened a new one today. They also have mobile infusion teams now, that's who went out and gave them to the 92 year old I mentioned.

Regeneron tails. Not as good as the ones I make.
Son went to HS orientation today. They had vax station set up. Seems kind of late to get it now.
Better late than never
Thanks, I'll pass the info on to her. Her doctor told her if she got COVID, she'd probably die, so I would hope the doc would send her for that treatment. Though this was before she was vaccinated. Is this treatment recommended only for the absolute highest risk people? Eg like my aunt? Or would it be prescribed for say anyone with diabetes? (got a couple in my family) Or other elevated risk factors like cancer, kidney disease, etc?
I suppose. Got my 17 y.o. son vaccinated by April. He wanted it. If he didn't, I wasn't going to force the issue.
Glad he's smarter than his dad
Hi Blake. Glad you're not dead.
Did you force your kid to get the jab?
I do believe he got the vaccine early.
In really new at the parenting thing, but isn’t part of it knowing better and making some key decisions for them?
Not in da zip code
To receive the infusion after testing positive you only have to be over 12 yrs old and have any of the following risk factors
https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019...onditions.html
Those cover most everyone with any type of comorbidity
To receive the infusion as a prophylactic (before testing positive) you have to be immunosuppressed. They just ok'd this like a week ago so they will probably expand authorization as time goes by.
It doesn't affect the vaccine after you are fully vaccinated. If you are unvaccinated, you have to wait 3 months after infusion to get the vaccine because the antibodies will basically neutralize the vaccine response.
Thanks for the info
Also, for the Dr's part there's nothing to it. Just a form to put the pts name and on and a few boxes to circle, then fax to the infusion site. They don't know or ask your comorbidities. It's the Docs call if you need it.Thanks for the info
ing healthcare still stuck on using fax smh. Wife has had to make a couple of weekend runs to the office just to fax them the damn form. They won't accept Dr orders over the phone and no online capability.
Kid is a VERY low risk. But, I get it.
I worried about the myocarditis, since he had an atrial septal defect as a young child.
Don't be that person. You're better.
It is scary sometimes, but it will freak you out when a doctor says there's something wrong with your kid's heart.
And this will very likely NOT be your situation.
Don't worry so much.
