Without Notice FDA Revokes Monoclonal Antibody Treatments for COVID, Promote Difficult to Find Pfizer and Merck Pills as Replacements
January 25, 2022 | Sundance | 411 Comments
This is some next level sketchy, borderline evil, stuff from the U.S. medical establishment. The FDA has revoked the authorization status of monoclonal antibody treatments [Announcement Here], effectively shutting down the treatment option for patients exposed to COVID-19.
The FDA gave no advanced notice of their arbitrary decision; they just issued a press release Monday evening and immediately revoked the Emergency Use Authorization.
The result was that no states were given any time to prepare for the shutdown or cancel the scheduled appointments of their patients.
On the surface the FDA justification is essentially that monoclonal antibody treatments are “unlikely to be active against the omicron variant,” so the monoclonal treatment option is revoked. However, below the surface it looks like the FDA reason for the revocation is to push the Pfizer and Merck pills as the primarily authorized therapeutics. The problem with the pills is they are hard to find and in short supply.
Literally, a few hours before the FDA shut down monoclonal antibody treatments to push the pills, CBS writes an article about how difficult it is to find therapeutic pills {SEE HERE}. But we are supposed to believe these decisions are about public health, right? This is absurd, I mean, seriously, think about it.
If public health was really the driving factor, why wouldn’t federal public health officials make every effort to have all treatments available, and then let your doctor decide which is right for you?
The state of Florida Health Department is not happy and being forced to close all monoclonal antibody treatment sites. They issued the following statement:
