Just heard a report that the Eli Lily antibody treatment can work as a short term preventative. Basically it seems they are looking to apply for it be used basically where there may be an out break in people who are negative to keep them from getting it over a shorter period of time. They have said it's not an alternative to the vaccine, just a tool to reduce the number getting infected in an out break in a closed area like nursing homes.
Side note for those who were paying attention to my update on my husband. He had another scan today and met with the doctor he's been assigned as the hospital plus a second doctor who is helping with his case. The mas in the lungs is about a quarter of the size it originally was and the lymph nodes have shrunk except for a few in the chest area where the mass still is. At this point they told him he has less than a 10% likelihood of cancer. Now that they know he whole story, they are sure it's either an allergic reaction or that plus a chemical reaction to something at the hospital he's working at. So they are keeping him out of work for a short time longer and getting him in with a specialist to figure that out and get him back to work. Finally some good news.
