With the spread increasing, it would be nice to slow it down before before vaccinations Start.

But supply won’t last long. Better to use it than do nothing but hope.

I would hope this puts an end to protests and Live political events. Maybe better to mail in the votes.

Us cases
>50k/dy
1.5m/month

Production estimated
Regeneron 300k/m
Roche 1m

prophylaxis
Not enough supply to make a dent. To expensive to produce. Leave to vaccines except special small outbreaks- old age home....

Hospitalized
Still waiting for data. But if it works the probably be used to save lives.

Out of hospital
If distributed to all would consume full supply
If distributed to seronegative (old and comorbidity 20%) Then you might have enough supply.

Anyway, other companies will need to deliver vaccines and antibodies to make up for supply shortage.

Just not sure why government hasn’t stepped up to fund project to increase supply 10X. Just in case the other companies fail.
