Yes, let's try something different, such as not posting the same nonsense over and over and over again, as you have. This must be your 4th or 5th post speculating about the same thing. Here is the deal: you are not a decision maker.

There will be patients waiting outside using some of the business open to shop, some just sitting outside and near the theater having coffee and a pastry, etc. Remember the words passed on by the Medical personnel HIGHLY CONTAGIOUS!

Monoclonal antibody treatment is a secondary solution. I would like to know if those receiving these treatments are paying for it. They should have to pay for it if they won’t get a vaccination.
i would like to try to live like i did before 2020, so dammit, get a vaccination!

yup!

I would imagine most folks receiving the antibody treatment are not vaccinated. Folks who are vaccinated have a very slim chance of needing hospitalization. That is the beauty of the vaccine.

Anyone have any stats on that?

Oh, please no! This guy is a quack with a capital Q.

Why would you post something coming from your imagination? Why not try to get some facts instead of just letting your imagination run wild?

I'll let you do that so you can prove me wrong.

To answer your question regarding the theater set up as a "petri" dish for the virus ---- it isn't. There is NO evidence that the virus will brew up a "petri" of disease by being treated INSIDE the theater.
For those that suggest that the Savannah RecCenter be used, why would you wish to shut down the RecCenter and all the activities for this? Maybe you would volunteer your home as a treatment site?

I believe the point of it being somewhere other than the theatre, lies in the fact that most people getting these treatment shots are being brought there by someone else. And that someone else is often the spouse or close friend. And that someone else needs something to do while they wait for the person to get their treatment. Or maybe they BOTH stop off in the square before getting in line, have a bite to eat inside the restaurant, maybe go shopping in any of the myriad of shops...

You're supposedly already presenting symptoms when you go for this treatment. The entire square becomes a petri dish, if a majority of people heading to the treatment center are stopping along the way, with symptoms, many rejecting masks, most of them not vaccinated.

At the Sharon, it's more isolated. There's no place to walk to, where you'll be in close proximity to crowds of other people. There are no stores there, no shops, no restaurants. There's little to do there IF you are going specifically to get the treatment, other than wait in line. That makes it safe for everyone else.

OBB......please edit The Sharon for The Savannah Center. I think that is what you meant.

Do you really think that people who are symptomatic for Covid, seeking treatment at the theater, will NOT wear masks? I honestly have to think better of people who willing know they are contagious and know they must take measures for source control. I really want to think better of people. Am I being foolish?

The Sharon is isolated with no shops in the vicinity? I think you meant the Savannah Center which is constantly booked for activities where the Barnwood Theater is wide open.

What is the panic when daily most people are carrying the virus or interacting with people carrying the virus? Now there is close by treatment if people do acquire the disease.

So a family member takes their loved one to a facility in the middle of the Mohave desert for treatment, takes them home and then heads to Brownwood for a drink, dinner and some new clothes shopping. What’s the difference other than dragging their lived one a great distance for help?

That’s not what I was referring to and you know it. The speculation is the behavior of these people seeking treatment. That they will walk all the way around the building for a donut and a cup of coffee. The moral superiority of some of you makes me sick.

[biker1]

Actually, considering that over 90% of those living in The Villages have been vaccinated, I would expect that many of those getting treated are breakthrough cases. The antibody treatment is being recommended for those who have tested positive and those who have been near those who have been tested positive, even if they have been vaccinated.

That's the core of the issue. Are ALL adults responsible adults? It is likely that SOME are irresponsible adults. If most of the patients going for the monoclonal treatment are the same people that were anti-vaccine or vaccine-hesitant - then I would consider them to be by definition - IRRESPONSIBLE adults. Some other people might consider them to be "UNLUCKY" ADULTS - or maybe just "late-to-the-game" adults. I prefer the term irresponsible because they were NOT responsible ENOUGH to their fellow humans to want and try to do something to stop a nationwide and worldwide PLAGUE. CV in its current Delta variant form has swept like a cloud of suffering and death over the United States and we HAD the tools to stop it. But 40% of our patriotic countrymen and women REFUSED (and still refuse) to utilize that tool. And why? Because of ANTI-science or because of ANTI-government or because of ANTI-society? I feel that the window of time has closed on America. If we can NOT agree to fight a Pandemic, then what can we agree to fight? It seems like the answer is EACH OTHER.

[biker1]

No, the treatment is also being recommended if you live with someone who has tested positive. "If a majority of the people heading for the treatment center are stopping along the way ..." ? Where do you get this nonsense from? You have no idea what the numbers are. Seriously, when you don't know what you are talking about the best thing is to keep your trap shut.

I wonder why an anti-vaxxer would all of a sudden be willing to take this new treatment. What is different between this and a vaccine?
