BG Medical/Janitorial, any thoughts about Sotrovimab? I believe it's another monoclonal antibody like Regeneron
https://scitechdaily.com/inescapable...mpression=trueThe FDA granted an EUA for sotrovimab in late May after trials showed that people with mild to moderate COVID-19 infections who received an infusion of the therapy had an 85% reduction in rates of hospitalization or death, compared with placebo.
FDA approved?? I dont trust it, give me my horse drugs!
Let me read the data and get back to you. My initial thought is "sounds very expensive".
Edit: reviewing the mechanism it's basically synthetic antibody to spike protein, so as effective as naturally generated antibody but concentrated. Sounds good for acute treatment but the vaccine probably better for prophylaxis.
I'll see what I can dig up.
Edit 2: further review indicates not as good for severe illness requiring oxygen or ventilation.
Can someone explain this to me?

How can a judge order something like this and it be legal? Even if it was prescribed to the person by another doctor, there is still the Hippocratic oath that other doctors take. If those docs think it will cause harm, per their oath, they wouldn't give it to him? Am i just misreading something here, or did i get click baited into bullshit?
O i saw that earlier, but i didn't really have time to read the article. Then i started seeing the same title's all over the place and started to read them. Every now and then i see these articles when it comes to laws or rules and i have a reaction, then i ask my attorney wife about them and a lot of the time she will explain why it was done a certain way. A lot of times, things are taken out of context to provoke those feelings. I'm just trying to find out if this is one of those cases, or if this is a judge ruling outside of his power.
just want to warn you guys to not go to r/ivermectin anymore, and ill leave it at that
if you are curious, definitely do not check it at work
i am being ambiguous because now you are going to check and that’s the plan
but you have still been warned
rip laffs
I blame you guys for going to the r/ivermectin subreddit.
Of course, its also highly unlikely that the hospital even has Ivermectin because theyre a hospital and not a horse veterinary.
"Your honor, our hospital does not have Ivermectin nor will we ever have Ivermectin available for patient use"
Judge: "And why not"
"because we are a hospital that treats humans, not a veterinary that treats animals"
Kuro has said he has not administered what another doctor has prescribed before, so I'm guessing, yes.
