OMG! This is the first I'm hearing of this! OMG!
I can't deal with this. This is just too much. 1

quote:A little more than two days before she reported testing positive for the coronavirus, first lady Melania Trump — as well as the president’s sons, daughters and several guests — violated safety protocols at the first presidential debate by taking off their masks after being seated in a live studio audience in Cleveland.
Several in the president’s entourage continued without masks after an official from the Cleveland Clinic, which co-hosted the debate, offered them masks in case they didn’t have any, according to debate moderator Chris Wallace. “They waved them away,” Wallace said on Fox News on Friday morning.
It was a violation of rules that both campaigns agreed to, Frank Fahrenkopf, head of the Commission on Presidential Debates, said in an interview with The Washington Post.
“The first family came in wearing masks, but they took them off. The rules said you had to wear a mask,” Fahrenkopf said. “Everyone in that hall was supposed to keep the mask on, other than the president, Biden and Chris Wallace.”

He got a dose of Regeneron monoclonal antibodies. Study results were just reported last week:

I read it was polyclonal antibodies.
This Twitter thread says that giving him the Regeneron cocktail for "compassionate use" was highly unusual.

Good point about the pulse ox. But sending someone to the hospital "early" on that basis is associated with much better outcomes.

Why are you angry? They made poor choices and are paying the price.
’Cause his pulse ox was dipping and he was freaking out and demanding the maximum dose.quote:Originally posted by wtg:
Have friend who is a medical geek. She was on a zoom call today with other geeks, one of whom is a molecular geneticist (I think). That person was wondering why they gave such a large dose of the Regeneron product to the president; apparently injecting a large quantity of proteins into a person can have undesirable results.
They couldn't understand why such a lightly tested product was being used on POTUS.
Ya gotta wonder....
