Biden Administration inserted itself as a middle man for Monoclonal Distribution

That’s the point. There is no reason to have the same supply.

There’s only one company making each type of monoclonal antibody treatments.

What other “supplies” are there?

So use the DPA to increase production and redirect unspent COVID relief funds to pay for it. That is what effective executives would do.

It doesn’t happen by just throwing money at it.

These types of products are tricky to produce.

No they aren’t. There is some lead time, but it’s not “tricky”.

[DMK]

@JayJay

No.

Because people in the business know how things work and you don’t.

So you make a whole host of unfounded assertions, and maybe you’d like to stop doing that.

Get over yourself.

You’re just as much in the dark as anyone else believing you have a leg up. You don’t.

no matter how mad it makes people.

Why must people always project their own emotional responses onto others?

Well no objective reason for attempting to downplay vaccines’ effectiveness has been given…

Management of expectations?

No that’s not it.

@JayJay

No that’s not it.

How do you know?

[DMK]

@WuWei

No they aren’t. There is some lead time, but it’s not “tricky”.

It isn’t tricky. They work for now. The virus will outsmart this treatment as well.

No I’m not as in the dark as anyone else.

I work in the industry. I have access to experts to explain to me things for which I don’t have the expertise. I actually personally know some of the key players in the development of both the vaccines and the therapeutics.

This isn’t bragging…this simply is stating a fact.

So yes…if you are not in the business of making vaccines or biopharms…I know more than you.

Do monoclonals work? Yes or no.

Is man in control?
Why no he’s not.

You’re using the wrong dictionary. Your basic mistake is assuming they are like you.

Here is the Webster.

Ok when you want to have a serious discussion, let me know.

We did that last year. You lost.

If you say so…

I know it. You know it. Is the virus running it’s course? Why yes it is.

Is man in control?
Why no he’s not.

Just. Like. I. Said.

Depends on your definition of “running its course” and “control”.

Several stated human goals were achieved.

We minimized harm…maybe not to the degree we wanted or aimed for but to the degree we could.

We developed vaccines and therapies in record time to further minimize it. We know we saved lives by doing this.

That to me is “control” enough.

Show off your scientific acumen and give me numbers to back up your assertion.

I wait with bated breath…

What is your scientific definition of efficacy?

You first.

You made the claim…you back it up.

And since you obviously are scientifically literate, you ought to know what my definition of efficacy is.

Definition of efficacy
: the power to produce an effect

Here’s Merriam Webster’s definition…do you agree?

[JayJay]

Correct as far as it goes, but we are talking science here.

Give me the scientific definition of efficacy as it pertains to vaccines so we have common ground to discuss the efficacy of the vaccines.

Great…fill in the missing portion.

It isn’t about throwing money at it. Under the DPA facilities capable of manufacturing the desired item are identified and directed by the authority of the DPA to convert their production to the desired item. Case in point there are several monocronal antibody manufactures, but only one seems to be effective against omicron. The DPA can be used to direct those facilities to produce the effective treatment. And there are more facilities in the US capable of this production that could be directed to increase the supply under the DPA. But that would take something more that setting with one’s thumb up their ass shouting vaccine, vaccine uber alles
