Governor Greg Abbott tested positive today.
And he is already in antibody treatment (which ordinary people cannot have).
Please stop LYING about this. As you have already been told numerous times, anyone whose doctor requests it can have and not pay a dime out of pocket for it. It is like the vaccines. Trump signed something after he was treated for Covid covering this. It is free in any state in the union for any person needing it.

Those Trumpers might be Republicans, but they aren't conservative.
No actual conservative would vote for Trump.
Trump isn't conservative.
Ridiculous. You have it perfectly backward. A Republican might not vote for Trump, but every conservative would and did. No conservative would have considered voting for anyone else. He is infinitely more conservative than anyone who ran against him. The number one conservative issue is immigration.
You made a false comparison. Admit it and move on. You're just looking foolish and dishonest now.
Expound please. Most viruses have animal reservoirs. We’ve banished many of them to the most isolated corners of the planet through vaccines and/or proper mitigative measures.
So, yes, low on science. Science says fat is better than carbs.
That depends on the carbs. Carbs from whole grains, fruit, etc are necessary for a balanced diet. If you replace starchy carbs with actual good carbs, low fat milk is better than whole milk. And that's ignoring the fact that the meals the kids get outside of school are likely to be very high fat, very high carb, and very processed.

Did your doctor request it?
Most patients with no severe symptoms are sent home without treatment at all.

It was my cousins, and yes. They got treated right away because we’ve had multiple family members die from covid. Most patients do not have other conditions that make the doctor think it will most likely get serious.
Where one got hers:
Quote:
Tampa General Hospital’s Global Emerging Diseases Institute (GEDI) offers monoclonal antibody treatments, which has been shown to help reduce hospitalizations and prevent worsening of COVID-19 symptoms. Treatments are offered at no direct cost to patients.
WHO IS ELIGIBLE FOR MONOCLONAL ANTIBODY TREATMENT?
Any patient 12 years of age or older who has tested positive for COVID-19. Patients experiencing mild/moderate symptoms - without increased oxygen requirements from symptom onset. Patients who a medical provider deems "high-risk" for their symptoms progressing to a severe level.
Patients must be within seven days of when their symptoms started.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What does the treatment do?
Helps reduce hospitalizations and prevent worsening of COVID-19 symptoms. Monoclonal antibodies are like the antibodies that are naturally made by the immune system in response to an infection, except a monoclonal antibody is made in a lab so that it only binds to one substance. You may not feel better right away after receiving Monoclonal antibody treatment, but that does not mean it isn’t working. The main goal of the treatment is to prevent worsening symptoms that would require admission to the hospital.
How does it work?
Monoclonal antibodies have been granted Emergency Use Authorization by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for COVID-19 treatment. They are man-made proteins that act like a human antibody in the immune system, defending the body’s cells against the COVID-19 virus. This treatment has been shown to prevent the virus from worsening and spreading.
How is the treatment administered?
The monoclonal antibodies are delivered through a single hour-long infusion treatment. After the procedure, patients are monitored for another hour to ensure there are no side effects and then return home to continue their recovery.
How much does it cost?
Treatment is free.
How long does the treatment take?
The visit will take about 3 to 3½ hours. You may want to bring a drink, a snack, and sweater as it may be chilly. One (1) hour for the Screen on arrival, One (1) hour for the infusion itself and One (1) for observation. Please arrive 15 minutes before your scheduled appointment.
Just stop. You are wrong.

My FB friend posted this. It upsets me that so many people think this way. What about all of the illegals crossing the boarder in Texas?
“ Well, looks like it has come to this in Texas. Please light a candle for this dumpster fire of a state where unvaccinated “freedom” fighters are creating an environment of needless suffering and death. Oh, and all the pediatric ICU beds in DFW are full too.”
how many innocent people get randomly shot 6 times by a stranger?
and in his case, yes - this is a lot of what folks don't have a clue about on ICU. After he has surgery for his broken shoulder, he'll be put in ICU for observation for some period. Given what they say about him, not more than a single day. So, if they have cases that are more acute (life and death) they operate on those first. If they have cases that will need to be in ICU for 3 days, they're doing them first.
