In a separate 19-2 vote, the AMDAC supported the monoclonal antibody's use in children ...

FDA criticized for restricting the use of COVID antibody treatments

Doubts raised on effectiveness of coronavirus antibody testing in the UK

July 15, 2020 -

According to a review of studies conducted by Cochrane, a U.K.-based network that assesses health research to help direct policy, roughly one in 10 antibody tests will miss cases of COVID-19. This could lead to people making harmful decisions delaying treatment or even traveling.

“There is no decision [patients] should be making based on the results of a test,” stated the review’s lead author Jon Deeks, a professor of biostatistics at Birmingham University in England. “We ...

Covid “negative” patients are overwhelming hospitals, exactly as predicted with Antibody Dependent Enhancement

November 10, 2021 -

According to the talking-heads, these people do not have the Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) because many of them are "fully vaccinated," so the whole thing is a "mystery," they claim.

Since the jabs are "safe and effective," there is no explanation for this latest crisis. It must just be a coincidence, right?

"ERs are now swamped with seriously ill patients – but many don't even have covid," reported Michigan Radio.

NPR also relayed the story, pretending ...

February 10, 2021 -

Laboratory analysis showed that the Moderna jab had six times less antibodies that block the virus from human cell receptors when tested against the South African B1351 strain.
