Antibody cocktail, touted by Trump as 'cure' for Covid-19, to be launched across UK next week for coronavirus patients

Antibody cocktail, touted by Trump as 'cure' for Covid-19, to be launched across UK next week for coronavirus patients

A new antibody drug, Ronapreve, will become available for coronavirus parents across Britain next week, the UK government has said. The drug was used to treat then-US President Donald Trump, who hailed it as a "cure" for Covid-19.

The drug, jointly developed by Roche and Regeneron, will be initially used among those with a weak antibody response to the virus, British health authorities said Friday.

"We have secured a brand new treatment for our most vulnerable patients in hospitals across the UK and I am thrilled it will be saving lives from as early as next week," Health Secretary Sajid Javid said in a statement announcing the Ronapreve launch.

"It will be used to treat patients without antibodies to SARS CoV-2 who are either aged 50 and over, or are aged 12 to 49 and are considered to be immunocompromised."


Eligibility for the treatment will be determined via antibody testing, with those showing a lack of "adequate existing antibody response" approved to receive the drug, Javid added. Ronapreve was greenlit for use in the UK by the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) back in August.

Hailing the upcoming rollout, one of the companies behind the drug expressed hope for the continuation of its partnership with British health authorities.

"This is just another step in our journey to overcome Covid-19, and we will continue to collaborate with partners to identify and investigate multiple options that may help different groups of patients," Covid-19 Lead at Roche, Paul McManus, said in a statement.

"Together with Regeneron, we're grateful for the collaboration of the vaccine taskforce and NHS England in helping to bring this important antibody cocktail to treat and prevent acute Covid-19 across the UK."


The drug is a monoclonal antibody combination treatment. Ronapreve is administered through injections or infusions, binding with the coronavirus and stopping the disease from reaching cells in the respiratory system – effectively, it is said to act similarly to a natural immune response.

The drug garnered worldwide attention when former US President Donald Trump caught Covid-19 during his time in office and was offered the experimental treatment. According to Trump, the drug demonstrated high efficacy, with the then-president hailing it as an ultimate "cure" for coronavirus.

Had both shots. Still alive and kickin'. Wish all you idiots a happy life. Oh....I've also had the polio vaccine, chicken pox and small pox vaccines also. Keep on believing you're right.

Well, my friend, 34, absolutely healthy guy, just died few days ago at home after getting the second jab (Pfizer). The formal death reason in the death certificate is Blockage in the main artery. Technically it’s probably true. To me it sounds like saying that all the millions burned in the extermination camps in 1939 died of shortness of breath.

A funeral director in the UK is blowing the whistle on the amount of deaths because of the jab that are NOT being reported. Surprised? We've been down this "alley" for 1 1/2 years. If you don't get what's going on by now, you are "their willing victim" and will pay the consequences. People forget there are consequences for all actions. https://www.bitchute.com/video/gigUyK3yLtMU/

Gil what about all the lab animals that have died in the last 20 years that they have been working in a MRNA jab since Sars1. They did fine after the jab until they were infected again through catching it in nature, then they all die. This jab never went through animal trials that's why it is only under EUA. People taday are the lab rats and under law can not sue the drug companies. I agree with your other points a society that can not reproduce or tie their shoe laces

I do not think people will die because of the vaccine. Life expectancy is likely to decrease, and male and female fertility will decrease, and the ability to think independently will be reduced, but not mass and sudden death. I do not think there is a basis for the conspiracy that this is mass destruction and not just a quantitative correction of the excess of human beings on earth.

Have you noticed how all the conspiracy theorist ideas are now coming to light. I guess the next one will be antibody dependent enhancement. When all your people start dying that took the jab
