Re the treatments Trump is receiving. They are all experimental with and the circumstances surrounding when and why they are used, is included in this article. Regeneron's antibody treatment is currently FDA rated as "compassionate" use, a designation with limitations as opposed to emergency approval. But these treatments should not be viewed yet as CURES. Neither are they a vaccine. Not everyone who receives these drugs survives COVID19 either. Trump exaggerates his own experiences with the drugs he is receiving. Trump is not FREE of COVID19 nor out of the woods as he announces and pretends to be. Dr. Conley touted the antibodies in Trump's blood as proof he is recovering, HOWEVER, Regeneron is REFUTING this claim stating Dr. Conley is picking up the antibodies provided from the REGENERON treatment.
