Currently available monoclonal antibody treatments unlikely to be effective against Omicron Circulating SARS-CoV-2 viral variants, including Omicron, are likely to be associated with resistance to widely available monoclonal antibody treatments, including bamlanivimab and etesevimab administered together or REGEN-COV based on in vitro data. However, sotrovimab appears to retain activity against the Omicron variant based on the same data but supplies are currently limited. Therefore, any further allocations of bamlanivimab and etesevimab together, etesevimab alone, and REGEN-COV are paused pending updated data from the CDC. Nationwide shipments of sotrovimab have resumed, and delivery of 55,000 doses of product has begun. An additional 300,000 doses of sotrovimab will be available for distribution in January, including shipments to Alabama.


That was in an email from the Medical Association of AL.
We shut down our infusions at UAB until we get the right one. This was based off the amount of Omicron we have here.

What I’ve been trying to tell y’all is that there has been a coordinated message among most of the hospitals in the south as of today that they are going to stop the antibodies.

Why?

All these hospitals found out the same day it isn’t working?

And who is dying? Because that’s the definition of not working. How can you say it’s not working if people aren’t dying?
