Yeah. Also what is with the Regeneron stuff? I know really nothing about it. Is it to supposed to help those who have COVID? -- nm - ty97 Aug 19, 07:32 17
- Yes, it's antibody treatment, which the FDA authorized for covid a while back. The problem is that Regeneron is connected to a DeSantis campaign fund donor. -- (link*) - mara Aug 19, 07:35 15
  - So possible conflict aside, it's a legit treatment? Obviously NOT getting COVID is better, but this stuff is legit. Good to know, thanks! -- nm - ty97 Aug 19, 07:42 10
    - I believe that's what my FIL got last winter because he couldn't be vaccinated yet and had open heart surgery earlier in the year. - spamlet Aug 19, 07:47 9
      - very interesting, thanks -- nm - ty97 Aug 19, 07:51 8
        
        It's the stuff they gave Trump as I recall. -- nm - pmb Aug 19, 08:12 7
        
        And Abbott. -- nm - Spawn Aug 19, 08:32
        
        Each dose is SUPER expensive. -- nm - loosilu Aug 19, 08:18 3
        
        Oh, it's free in Florida. -- nm - mara Aug 19, 08:23 2
        
        well, "free" for the receiver. -- nm - JaxSean Aug 19, 08:46 1
        
        Ah, is the state paying for doses? -- nm - mara Aug 19, 08:49
        
        wasn't that hydroxychloroquine? -- nm - JaxSean Aug 19, 08:17 1
        
        No, his doctors wouldn't have given him that. I mean, they're real doctors. He was at Walter Reed. -- (link*) - mara Aug 19, 08:28
  - "Records also show the Regeneron shares owned by Citadel represent 0.04% of the hedge fund’s holdings." -- nm - Baron and Barratry Aug 19, 07:42
  - The donor is the Citadel founder. $15m in Regeneron is less than he spent in toilet paper for his yacht last year. -- nm - spamlet Aug 19, 07:39 2
    - I see both Spamlet and I wore our Show Me glasses this morning. - Baron and Barratry Aug 19, 07:46 1
      - You brought actual data. I just brought snark. -- nm - spamlet Aug 19, 07:48
- helps people who have invested in that company -- nm - Beaker Aug 19, 07:33
