My point is, death is death.

yes and I know several people that have had it with success. Show me a person in the ICU that rejects Regeneron. I want to see this person in real life.

two coworkes and my grandmother all had the infusion and each of them said they felt much better by the next day....no reactions
there was a 3 day wait for one of the coworkers. other guy got it asap because of prexisting heart condition. my grandmother also got it straight away because of her age and health condition
all are doing fine now.
worth noting...the two co workers are vaccinated, grandma is not

It is also “experimental” (according to this board)
It also has a higher likelihood of immediate side effects when compared to vaccines. (We have seen a couple anaphylactic reactions during infusion. No anaphylactic reactions to vaccines here yet)
Would you use a condom that had holes in it? Wearing the paper mask is effectively the same against the virus.

If you are gasping for air like a goldfish out of water,
I'd bet you wouldn't say no to anything, including experimental treatments.

I had the Bamlanvimab monoclonal antibody treatment.
Had a mild infusion reaction that evening, one hour of a 101.5 fever, and then no issues.
Quick recovery from Covid.
I’ve had 6 people I know who got this or other types of monoclonal antibody treatments, all were high risk, all recovered quickly.
Monoclonal therapy is not a new technology.

It would be the first thing I would ask for

Just testing positive? Or are you talking about being very sick and in the hospital? I have a son who tested positive and he's never felt a thing; why would he take Regeneron?

That wouldn’t be effective unless the person was in a high exposure risk position.
The monoclonal simply gives you a temporary supply of antibodies. They’ve almost completely degraded within 30 days of infusion. Unless you’re getting monthly infusions it won’t work. Additionally monthly exposure is more likely to lead to side effects such as allergic reactions to anaphylaxis.
The best use is in people 3-5 days after getting exposed. This gives them immunity through the high virus replication period while also allowing their own immune system a chance to see the virus and start an active immune response for long term protection.
Beyond 10-14 days post infection, the use is limited to completely ineffective because the virus replication is mostly complete, the damage from the virus is done and now one has to deal with other factors such as preexisting condition complications or consequences from the virus like bacterial pneumonia Etc.

Bees and peanuts also cause anaphylactic reactions

You are kind of being a typical dick here, but let us roll with it.
Would I go get Regeneron because I was exposed or had symptoms - No.
Would I get it like my Dad did, because he was in the hospital and close to being vented and probably dying - Yes.
Without it I probably would have buried my Dad a few months back. Risk vs. reward only you can decide what is right for you.

Depends on the person. Dumb arse.

A friend of mine has had covid for almost 2 weeks now. He was actually starting to get better. On Tuesday he went to get the infusion. 4 hours later he was in the ER. His heart rate dropped, he passed out, next thing he remembered was waking up in an ambulance.
Last time I talked to him they believe he had some sort of anaphylactic reaction to the infusion. First I’ve heard of that happening.

No it doesnt. Its a fragile protein. It doesnt hang around forever. And the mrna is even more fragile

It is amazing when people that are so wrong try to be so right. Loser.

Still waiting on your explanation as to why the post isn’t true
Posted on 8/12/21 at 5:42 pm to Cosmo
Didn't get it when I had Covid. The immune system I was born with kicked in and I recovered in 5 days.
