New York University and Valley Health System in northern New Jersey notified doctors Sunday that they are suspending monoclonal antibody programs and will not be offering the treatments until they receive more shipments from state and federal health agencies. The hospitals said it was unclear when they will be resupplied.
The hospital said in the “coming weeks” it expected to get a new distribution of sotrovimab from New York state officials but that it will likely have to ration who receives the doses until supply increases. "The Mount Sinai Emergency Departments are not offering monoclonal antibody treatment at this time," the hospital said on its website."As the Omicron variant spreads, we are learning more about it. We are finding that it is passed rapidly from person to person and that most people have mild infections. We are also finding that certain monoclonal antibody treatments are not helpful for patients who become infected with this variant or for post-exposure prophylaxis.
The federal government paused shipments of all monoclonal antibodies in late November while scientists studied the effectiveness of the antibodies against the omicron variant, said a Department of Health and Human Services spokesperson. "We are working with urgency and exploring options to expand our supply capacity in 2022 so that we can support more patients," she said.
We’re all doomed.
Wait what ?! It’s a hoax isn’t it 🤨
Quick talk to the mayor or governor or someone or is it lions and tigers and bears oh my
Save the treatment for vaccinated patients only
Joe rogan probably got at least a half decade supply in his home alone, let’s be honest here
I heard Joe Rogan can cure covid
thanks Joe!! people will die Joe do you get it yet!!
Oh I thought they didn't work? Weird NYC wants them now. Try horse dewormer instead:)
How can NYC be out of that drug for treatment - that makes no sense. And just imagine under BBB they want to put billions into new Federal run programs and they can't even get much needed treatment during a Pandemic. Go figure! AOC POTUS Sen_JoeManchin LindseyGrahamSC
Maybe Biden regime shouldn’t be rationing them
Apparently Apparently they're available in abundance in other states, for whatever reason they're not distributing enough and discouraging the use. Treatment of the illness needs to take precedent, people are dying. Vaccinated included. What is this world.
Don’t treat the obese.
This admin is caught unaware all the time. Afghanistan, omicron, now this. Pathetic. BidenIsAFailure Biden
