Tennessee Follows Federal Guidance, Recommends Vaccinated Don’t Get Monoclonal Antibodies

ZACHARY STIEBER   |   September 21, 2021

Tennessee health officials are now recommending only people who aren’t vaccinated get monoclonal antibody treatments as states see lower numbers of doses because of federal government rationing.

“Our recommendation to monoclonal antibody providers or individual facilities across the state is if they need to prioritize distribution of the treatment, the NIH guidelines are the recommended approach for that prioritization, including prioritizing those who are most likely to be hospitalized,” Bill Christian, a spokesman for the Tennessee Department of Health, told The Epoch Times via email.

“Ultimately, this comes down to providers’ clinical judgment to ensure those most at risk are receiving this treatment,” he added.

The COVID-19 Treatment Guidelines Panel, part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), in early September recommended prioritizing people who are either unvaccinated or partially vaccinated if a shortage of monoclonals cropped up.

The government provides yet another reason why it is better to not get jabbed.

The recommendation is due to the LIEden-caused mab treatment shortage, not any sort of danger or increased risk.

An intentional shortage caused because DeSantis was looking too effective at controlling his state's rate of COVID hospitalization.

An intentional shortage caused because DeSantis was looking too effective at controlling his state's rate of COVID hospitalization.

Actually, the shortage is due to many months of failing to replenish Feds' stocks of the several mab treatments. In the case of Regeneron's REGEN-COV, none was purchased at all by LIEden until about a week ago. As for GSK's mab treatment (authorized in May 2021), as far as I can tell from GSK's press releases, the Feds have purchased none at all. The current shortage is due to LIEden incompetence.

If a person is vaccinated, and the vaccine actually created the superior polyclonal antibodies it is supposed to, then what help would the monoclonals provide in the first place?

The problem with Covid is that people are getting jabbed, not vaccinated.  The jab doesn't produce any antibodies against SARS-2.

It does produce antibodies, but they are not as broad spectrum as those naturally acquired by surviving the disease. Effective early onset treatment remains the best option.
