Updated Protocol for Early Treatment of COVID19

We have now treated over 1000 people with monoclonal antibodies. The trend we’re seeing is that they work well - but early treatment is key. We have not seen any serious reactions in our patients thus far.

Since my last post on the early treatment for COVID-19, some new recommendations for outpatient treatment of COVID-19 have been added. Below is the complete list, based on research done by Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance. Items in bold are new additions to the list since my last post.
