    Oh look, Regeneron Ron is opening more treatment sites. Of course they are using Regeneron which is totally useless for treating Omicron. What a fine expensive placebo -- won't help anyone but will make DeSantis' hedge fund buddies rich.

    Florida To Open Additional Monoclonal Antibody Treatment Sites
    https://miami.cbslocal.com/2022/01/...ditional-monoclonal-antibody-treatment-sites/

    Florida will open five additional monoclonal antibody treatment sites, three of which will be in South Florida.The new sites will open Tuesday, January 18th.

    The South Florida sites will be at Markham Park in Sunrise, Miami Dade College North Campus at 11380 NW 27th Ave, and the West Boynton Recreation Center in Lake Worth.

    The two other sites will be in Jacksonville and Altamonte Springs.

    At the beginning of the month, Governor Ron DeSantis requested that the federal government increase the supply of monoclonal antibody treatments it sends to the state to at least 30,000 doses per week. On January 7th, the governor announced that 15,000 doses of Regeneron had been secured and would support new monoclonal antibody sites.

    A full list of state-supported operational monoclonal antibody therapy sites can be found HERE.

    Monoclonal antibodies help the immune system recognize and respond effectively to the COVID-19 virus.

    Monoclonal antibody therapy treatment is for individuals who have contracted or been exposed to COVID-19. It can prevent severe illness, hospitalization, and death in high-risk patients who have contracted COVID-19.

    The treatment is not a substitute for vaccination.

    It seems like all the english-speaking countries in the world have lost their minds.

    We should not be selling nuclear submarines to Australia based on their abuse of human rights. We should not be sharing intelligence with or supplying weaponry to such a country.

    Australia. Abuse of human rights? LOL You do realize that Australia has had far fewer days locked down with Covid than the U.S. -- this has been pointed out multiple times. Including by one of their politicians who mocked Ted Cruz about Cruz's false claims.

    If you were talking about Australia's abuse of human rights from a historical perspective in regards to their treatment of aborigines then maybe you would have a talking point.

    Australia has had fewer locked down days with COVID than the US? How about Florida? Or Texas?

    Just because you amalgamate a bunch of statist states and come up with an overall number higher doesn't mean shit.

    Additionally, can you show me what states in the US moved "unvaccinated" or Covid + individuals to "off site detention centers"? Call the "centers" whatever you like.

    Enjoy your Australian fantasies. You should understand they locked down by region/city as well based on Covid outbreaks -- and too far less of a degree than the U.S. Maybe we should compare the results in terms of the number of Covid cases per capita, hospitalizations per capita, and deaths per capita between the U.S. and Australia.

    Your Covid detention centers are a fantasy as well -- providing people with no adequate shelter to isolate in with appropriate shelter are not "Covid concentration camps" and the rest of the nonsense poured on by misinformation artists.

    So all the people sent to this "adequate shelter" did so of their own free will? No one is sent to the quarantine camp against their will, is that it?

    Except these three, who must have changed their mind.

    You do know it is the state legislature which drives redistricting -- not the governor. Why is DeSantis even submitting a proposal for redistricting. It is unprecedented for a governor to do this.

    Unprecedented? Are you saying a governor has never done it before?
