Regeneron’s Covid-19 antibody may help non-hospitalized patients recover faster, early data show:

New data from the biotechnology firm Regeneron seem likely to add to the excitement about drugs called monoclonal antibodies as treatments for Covid-19, but experts caution more data will be needed to know how potentially beneficial the medicines are.

A high dose of the company’s antibody cocktail, REGN-COV2, led levels of the virus to decrease more quickly in infected, non-hospitalized patients, potentially indicating the treatment may help them get better, Regeneron reported Tuesday via press release. Full results will be published at a later date.

We came home. Saw neighbor girls out with Dad. The three year old was on a scooter. The 6 year old was on a bike.
I asked about school. Dad said 6 year old was back in in person school and totally loving it. Six year old daughter said she truly loved being back in school.

Dad said decision weighed heavily on the family re: in person or remote but they decided on in person and it is going well. (My county offers choice of 100% in person or 100% remote.)

Aw that's great!
