There must be some kind of discrimination going on over there at Brownwood. Some are being turned away due to no test, others walk right in and get the treatment. Weird!

Fortunately all my friends are vaccinated. Desantis’s rollout was so good that Florida’s cases are the highest with so many deaths that there is nowhere to put the bodies. I call that a success.

Give it a rest.

OK, whatever. They are also making the monoclonal treatment available for breakthrough cases.

Many in Florida have chosen not to get the vaccine and a large number of those are getting sick, filling hospital beds, and dying. While the vaccine is the best way to avoid the need for a hospital bed, if your friend finds (his/her)self unvaccinated and sick with Covid then the monoclonal treatment may help.

Florida is still "pushing" vaccines but they are also making monoclonal treatments available for "friends" who knew better than the scientists.

That is not my experience. Have you personally seen this?

Go up a couple of responses. One said they needed a test and the one right after said no test required. Which is it?

29 and 30.

My guess: Some are going to the clinic at the Brownwood theater and others are going to one of the medical facilities in the Brownwood area.

With all these positive COVID-19 people coming to Brownwood - maybe a good idea to steer clear of the area ?? I mean they are only there cuz they are sick !!

Many of the people do not have COVID and are getting the treatments for prevention. They are parking on the side of the theater and entering through the side door not the square entrance. I have dinner res in Brownwood Wed evening.

Yep, could be. Maddening.

Velvet 09-06-2021 02:38 PM

You know the side effects of this treatment, no? Not fun, really. But worth it IF you’re likely to have Covid.

Ben Franklin 09-06-2021 03:49 PM

Someone mentioned it's free. However, it is very expensive, and WE are all paying for it.

My question is - is anyone in the medical profession monitoring this, or does our info come from politicians and/or anecdotal testimonials? Who is keeping the stats?

I find it absolutely amazing that people, including our governor, refuse to get a simple almost painless vaccination, but yet willingly consider and recommend the infusion of antibodies with the use of an IV, pumping medicines of unknown origins into your bloodstream for an hour or so. Do people realize that the antigens being recommended are components of serum and red blood cells from other individuals or even animals?

Simply amazing. Sad, but amazing.

Where did you get your info on DeSantis not being vaccinated?
He was vaccinated last April:
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis Receives Single-Dose COVID-19 Vaccine – NBC 6 South Florida
Simply amazing and sad people spread false information.

Interesting read....For scientists, path to covid endgame remains uncertain

IMHO, there is nothing wrong with requiring proof that an individual meets the criteria for the treatment. I would bet there are people who seek the treatment as a prophylaxis treatment.
