Two Weeks Ago: The AP Runs a Hit Piece Suggesting That DeSantis Is Pushing a Cure for Covid as a Payoff to an Investor Now: Fauci Admits That Treatment Reduces Covid Deaths by... 85%

Just two weeks ago, the AP attempted a disgusting and desperate hit on Ron DeSantis for promoting the treatment of covid with monoclonal antibodies.

They claimed that DeSantis was acting in some kind of criminal way because a single donor of his was also invested in monoclonal antibody treatments (among a million other things).

Under pressure, the AP had to admit that, um, okay, maybe DeSantis wasn't solely motivated by a desire to indirectly boost the stock price of a single stock held by a single investor; maybe -- just maybe -- he was also motivated by the fact that monoclonal antibody treatments seem to work.

And were also being promoted by Joe Biden!

But still, they attempted to claim that DeSantis was only promoting the treatment due to one single investor possibly getting some indirect benefit.

Which he wasn't-- as DeSantis explained, Trump had already ordered the government to buy all the monoclonal antibodies, so there was no additional benefit to the stock price. The product had already been paid for, so actually using it now was... free.

"Well, it was clearly a partisan hit piece. They're trying to act like this is not an effective treatment- it was a bizarre theory to boost Regeneron stock price, but as you know Sean, President Trump bought out all of the Regeneron last year, so it's already been paid for by the federal government. When we take down from Florida to give to patients, there's no charge for it. It has no financial incentive at all. All we're trying to do is help people," DeSantis told Fox News' Sean Hannity on Monday night.

"Now, what the AP did by trying to create a false narrative is some people may believe the narrative and then think that this is not a viable treatment for them so if they're infected, they will not go seek a monoclonal antibody and that will ultimately increase their risk of hospitalization," DeSantis said. "So the AP knew what they were doing, they wanted to do a political hit on me and the fallout from that is that there will likely be people who decline life-saving treatment. And then they have the temerity to act like they were the victim when they got called out on their hit piece."

And now Fauci also admits, Regeneron can reduce covid deaths by 85%.

"COVID-19 sufferers can reduce their risk of hospitalization and death by up to 85 percent if they receive monoclonal antibody treatments in the early stages of their illness, Dr. Anthony Fauci said Tuesday."

By the way, a large CDC study has again proven the near-complete uselessness of masking indoors.

"The study, which analyzed some 90,000 elementary students in 169 Georgia schools from November 16 to December 11, found that there was no statistically significant difference in schools that required students to wear masks compared to schools where masks were optional."

The AP knows all Democrats are corrupt, and they make the assumption that Conservatives are too.

No they just slander.

This is currently the only safe and truly effective treatment for Covid. Period. If you get sick, get monoclonals. Don’t screw around with horse paste or trying to find some quack who will rx it by telehealrh.

I just sent today someone for regeneron who was on ivermectin and getting progressively worse. This is not the first time I have seen ivermectin so squat.

Please. Get something the works. Avoid the ICU with this disease. Get monoclonal treatment as early as possible.

One of our neighbors (early 40s) recently tested positive for COVID with symptoms, and he ended up getting treatment for it. He’s fighting a bit of congestion right now according to his wife, but otherwise he is doing better. Maybe he wouldn’t be as well off without the treatment. I need a new doctor, and his doctor sounds like a good choice, assuming they’re taking new patients.

Regeneron works. A friend's 91-year-old father was vacationing in Sarasota, and came down with Covid. His condition worsened, so he went to a doctor that recommended using Regeneron. My friend's father did just that, and within a couple of days was mostly symptom free. He was by no means a perfectly healthy guy as he is a cancer survivor, so that is proof enough for me that Regeneron works (no vax necessary).

85% isn’t good enough? Better than 100% dead.

I spoke with a friend in Ohio. Both of her parents in their late 60s got COVID. She said that all doctors/hospitals in Ohio now treat people over 60 with monoclonal antibodies, almost immediately when test is positive. Her parents did great.

How difficult is it to get into the treatment centers in FL? I’d guess the appointments are pretty hard to get?

Fauci crossing the line and saying treatments not only work but can stop 85% of all deaths.

Take the Covid death rate and reduce it by 85% - we are in a tiny universe where Covid death is remote.

Regeneron treatments should be everywhere!

I think he knows that the water is running out of the bath tub on these vaccines. Now you have to take one every 15 minutes. No one knows what the long term damage is. Why risk it if the disease could be treated? Why vaccinate children?

Who is the politician and who is the doctor???

In this case DeSantis has more credentials as a doctor than Fauci.

And DeSantis has even more credentials as a politician than Fauci.

I just checked today and appointments were available any time on Sunday August 29th.

Hmmmmm.....85%.....where have we heard that number, before?

Oh, yeah.....Ivermectin studies!

Glad this issue has circled back to bite the FRAUDci, on the back side.

Q: Are physicians who prescribe monoclonals given immunity from liability in the PREP Act?

In farm stores and websites of stores that sell it, now there’s a huge screaming warning that using ivermectin in humans could cause terrible harm and death.

*shrug*

Or not.

;)
