I don't get it. The same people who refuse the vaccinations --


are lining up to receive monoclonal antibodies after they test positive for Covid.

Two people we know did that. Plus they got a prescription for Ivermectin from their doctor.

We have met the enemy folks….and yes, they live among us. I won’t say he is us because some of us have a grain of sense. And some clearly don’t.

why would a doctor write a prescription for something the drug store probably doesn't have?

Guessing it's caused by some water-borne parasite.

The main reason why most of them won't get their shots is because the Democrats want them to.

It's a hell of a lot easier to just go and get the damned shots than it is to fret over taking Covid tests all the time and then to make sure you get to the hospital early enough to get the monoclonal antibody therapy. And you really have to be in a sad state to believe that veterinary drugs are the answer.

I'm covering the bases. I got my shots and my booster, and if I test positive, I'll get the monoclonal therapy. I'm not taking Ivermectin or Hydroxychloroquine, though.

need it in other states are having difficulty getting approved for the treatment. In the meantime, Florida and Texas covidiots are running around without masks or vaccines and getting monoclonal antibodies with no approval needed. The weekly available supply should be shipped in equal amounts to all states so everyone has a chance. Even if vaccinated, you should get this treatment as soon as you can if you get a breakthrough infection, especially if you have health conditions.
