first, major covid news with vaccine boosters and regeneron heaines. president n affirmed the c.d.c.'s announcement this morning that americans should plan to get a booster eight months after their second shot. joining us now to break this down is stanford microbiology and immunology professor dr. robert segal. thank you for your time today. >> thank you for in inviting me back. kristen: the white house announced its plan making booster shots available starting september 20. you're eligible to get yours eight months after the second dose. we are waiting for the f.d.a. and the c.d.c. to sign off on that but what do you think about this plan? >> i think it's a good plan. i think that this is putting into play sort of proactively the need for boosters. kristen: dr. anthony fauci shared slides this morning with data to support this conclusion, that boosters are a good idea. tell us the main points he made. >> i'm sorry, i didn't see the interview. but i think the key is that over time, the immune response drops a little bit. that's less of a factor than th

but how effective is regeneron we'll take a closer look. and after the break a man with a knife seen on this video running after another man in san francisco. we'll get into more when a truck hit my car, the insurance company wasn't fair. i didn't know what my case was worth, so i called the barnes firm. call the barnes firm now, and let us help you get the best result possible. ♪ call one eight hundred, eight million ♪ >>san francisco police are investigating a home invasion robbery that was reported in the city's outer sunset neighborhood and police say the robbery was reported around 1030 last night on 45th avenue right near ortega street. officers say a man entered a home pointed a gun at a 43 year-old woman and demanded her money. the woman gave him cash and then police say the suspect took off. if you have any information on what happened here you're asked to call san francisco police. another big story we're following this afternoon a homeless man with a large knife was seen chasing down another man on the streets of san francisco. h

they need to make the regeneron. i'm going to go right back to financials, they need to make regeneron to have regular use like they did for pfizer when i saw jpmorgan at 14 times earnings, i said does that really deserve to have such a low multiple given the amount of cash it has. bank of america if you think rates are going to go high, which i think they may, what a great steal. why not buy back stockm facebook does buyback, but facebook's higher multiple apple does buyback with apple higher multiple. >> and we're going to talk to rod hall later on this morning. >> rod hall? >> in the 10:00 a.m. from goldman, who has been stubbornly neutral on the name. >> there were some people who were negative on palo alto >> that didn't work out too well for them >> no. >> ill-advised strategy. well, look, rod hall, what does it matter? if you're neutral, that gives you the optionality tospeak incorrectly about apple because you don't know it? just kidding rod hall is a very smart guy who wauf thought. >> there's a good note ou

antibody drug made by regeneron is a treatment for covid-19.n large part because under these two republican governors, covid-19 is spreading fast in their states. florida number one in kcovid-19 hospitalizations per capita in the country. texas, not far behind at number seven. >> the vaccination rates were too low to fend off the delta variant. we know we got there because there wasn't indoor masking. it is really mind blowing that these governors are not implementing these measures. >> reporter: resulting in desperation and despair. a woman lying on the floor of a florida clinic waiting for treatment with regeneron's antibody drug. another patient at the clinic took the photo. >> people had nowhere to sit. they are sitting down but they were so sick, the picture really doesn't do it justice because they were moaning in a lot of pain. it really drove the point home as to how serious these people are. i mean, for all i know, these people could have been dying right there and then. >> reporter: despite the high rates of covid-19 in his state, des

nothing is better for the stock price of regeneron then an increase in numbers of covid-19 infections. with covid-19 infections on the rise in florida, governor desantis plans to open between 15 and 20 regeneron treatment sites across the state, that could offer 300 treatments per day. governor desantis spends a little time trying to stop the spread of covid-19, but is doing everything he can to spread the use of regeneron for people in florida infected by covid-19. >> early treatment with these monoclonal antibodies regeneron and others have proven to radically reduce the chance that somebody ends up being hospitalized. at the end of the day, reducing hospital admissions's got to be a top priority. >> vaccination and masks are even more important to reducing hospital admissions, much more important than regeneron. an average so now, republican governor doug doocy issued an executive order to prevent city and county governments from requiring vaccines for their and ploy ease. governor doocy's order came in response to a vote last week by the tucson city council to require that city em

texas governor greg abbott is receiving regeneron after he tested positive for the virus. in florida governor ron desantis is making the treatment available for some residents there study show that regeneron can reduce the rates of covid-19 hospitalizations and deaths. doctors stress it is not a replacement for getting vaccinated but regeneron antibodies can make symptoms less severe. >>if everyone could have access to this treatment i think this is the difference between what we've seen on covid started for so many people are getting hospitalized and i and i think this is the difference that we have now. >>regeneron is usually given to people who test positive for covid-19 and have risk factors such as obesity diabetes or health problems. now to our 4 zone forecast as we give you a live look outside at something our camera is pointing. out of the bay with on the palm trees out there my moving too getting closer to the weekend. so that might be why you're moving pretty fast chief meteorologist lawrence karnow standing by. >>says will the skies be more clear over the weeken

that includes, yes, the cocktail known as regeneron, the eli lilly version of regeneron. hydroxychloroquine,i every method, you get to decide but sadly the health experts andnd biden administration do not appear capable of providing clear, consistent and guidance on everywhere, it is flipping and flopping and flailing all over the place.si people rightly are getting angry, and they feel like they don't know this is a gang that can't shoot straight. they don't know what they are doing. last week the white house said that strict, vaccines mandates. wow, i didn't think that would happen but it did. the teachers unions interestingly they are coming out against the mandates. all of a sudden, it's not exactly clear where the biden administration stands on the issue.e. of course, democrats every election season, they rake in millions and millions of dollars from teachers unions. donate enough money, you can even dictate cdc policy as we have learned previously. make no mistake, vaccine mandates are a terrible idea just like vaccine and the principles of medical privacy. the medi

press conference wred where he opened a site in or llando calld the regeneron climpg he has made it sotibody treatment, that's the one president trump had last fall, got sick, got better immediately. desantis plans to open more sites today. why? that's huge. take the regechlt neron cocktail as soon as you get sick. he was with the head of mr.'s agency for health care administration, simone marstal whose daughter wrust contracted covid, and had 105 fever she went on the regeneron drip and it went to 99.6. why do i care so much about this fda and cdc have entirely dropped the ball when it come to this regeneron cocktail. of all the governors i salute desantis for saying to the fda and cdc, this drug is too important to waste wake up, government. our government bet everything on getting people vaccinated but now that we didn't reach herd immunity fast enough we have another huge outbreak. we need to go back to treatments and testing! and that's the same reason to like abbott labs not long ago we were hearing abbott labs in-home testing was too late because covid was about to be solved so

this regeneron that he's taking, is that something most people would be treated with?where to begin here, anderson? first of all, i wish the governor does well as peter was saying. so you have a situation here where the governor is railing against masks but he himself we learned is not wearing a mask and that said even though he should have been is getting tested on a daily basis instead of wearing a mask and then goes and gets regeneron while he's a symptomatic after having been vaccinated. it's really -- there's not a lot of logic here. instead of wearing a mask, daily testing, $1,500 worth of antibodies and still not wearing a mask after that. i'm not quite sure what the message is here. what the cdc says to your question specifically is if you've been vaccinated, you have a known exposure, you ask get tested within 3 to 5 days after that exposure and wear a mask for 14 days or until you test negative. but this is a situation we're hearing over and over again. we're hearing this in florida as well. we're not going to talk about masks, but instead we're going to advo

versus steroids and then i'm curious about the back story. >> he did get regeneron, that's right.and at the time it was experimental and hadn't been authorized butme that's why they called the commissioner and asked for this authorization. the fda has to provide it within $24 for any patient. they don't need the patient's irname. but they do need other medical history, all the drugs they are on. they can make sure whatever drugs they are going to have will it react to something adversely or exacerbate some underlining conditions. for the white house, they can ask can you do this in a few hours and if he goes to the officials and they don't know, but they say we really need to go by the book on this. the white house basically wants them to cut corners and speeded up and when he realizes it's for trump, he's like you want us to cut corners for the president, that's insane. one of the people we talked to who was familiar with his conditions said they were almost positive it was the antibodies that were responsible for his turnaround, because it's one of those if you give it early in

she thinks trump received regeneron while he was in the hospital.her question is, did your reporting doctors and hospital and staff suggest it was the steroid that helped him rather than the regeneron? i know you also add, there was this amazing scene where the fda commissioner got a frantic phone call from the white house asking if his agency can sign off on a compassionate use authorization for antibiotic treatment as soon as humanly possible and it turned out it was on behalf of president trump his or her question about regeneron versus steroids, i'm curious about that antibody. >> he did get regeneron and at the time, it was an experimental drug, that's why they call the fda commissioner and asked for the authorization. the fda has to provide it within 24 hours for any patient and they don't need the patient's name, it canal be anonymous but they need their medical history, the drugs they are on so they can make sure whatever truck they sign off on isn't going to react, with something are already on or exacerbate an underlying condition they mig

they aren't going to get regeneron because they can't afford it, it is $1200 a shot.ies and expensive covid treatment that most of their viewers can't afford and will never get instead of giving them useful and powerful information, using their platform to give free information on free prevention, they are tonight's absolute worst. and that's tonight's "reidout." >>> tonight on "all in" -- >> you know, we're not going to sit by as governors try to block and intimidate educators protecting our children. >> the push to protect kids, both from covid-19 and from the governors who banned masks in schools. >> i feel like the governor is definitely trying to make a political statement and my daughter and other kids are just the collateral damage t

the question about regeneron versus steroids and the back story for the antibody. >> he did get regeneront was an experimental job not authorized for use and call the fda commissioner for authorization, has to be provided in 24 hours. they do need all their medical history and all the drugs are on and make sure whatever drug they sign off on will react adversely to exacerbate underlying condition so the white house, can you do this in a few hours? steve hahn goes to career officials, need to go by the book on this. the white house basically wants to cut corners and speed it up, that is insane. one of the people familiar with trump's condition said they were almost positive, monoclonal antibodies, the quick turnaround, the infection can be highly effective. it seems like steroids for the return to the white house. and a burst of energy, the information said they thought it was the regeneron drugs returned him around. >> this question, clearly some checks and balances need to be implemented. is that congressional oversight and restructuring, pulled out of hhs. >> one of the benefits of that

then of course therapeutic known as regeneron.d people, good friend of mine fully vaccinated got tested positive on saturday. had regeneron in less than 24 hours. i just talked to him about an hour ago and he spilling grade. as a matter of fact, he's out fishing alone in his vote. he's like, i still have seven days to quarantine and i'm doing great. but look at how joe biden took all of those already a million shots going into people'smi arma day. when your father-in-law left office, how could l they possiby screw it up this bad with open borders and 1 million people in a high rate of positive holy cases? >> does make you wonder, how could they do it, sean? the answer is joe biden and kamala harris are supposedly in charge of our country. so until we get a handle on the immigrants that are free flowing over our southern border, many of them infected with covid, many of them never get tested and they certainly haven't had the vaccine and until we stop using taxpayer funds to ship them all over the country, we are giving them bus ti

market since last fall from eli lilly and regeneron. and regeneron's drug was used to treat president trump when he got stick with covid-19. there's one on the market with vir partnered with gsk dr. fauci targeted these treatments saying early treatments can reduce the risk or hospitalization from 70% to 80%. they're for people with severe risks either because of age or underlying health conditions regeneron tells us that from early july to now the usage or at least the shipment of these doses has gone up from six fold from less than 25,000 doses before mid-july per week to now more than 150,000. hhs also tells us they've seen significant increases in ordering in recent weeks primarily from areas with lower vaccination rates. and you can see here that region in the southeast accounts for almost half of the orders we've seen since july 1st. and then the area around texas for about a third of the orders we've been seeing. vir technology ceo telling us he's concerned there could be a shortage of these drugs. they're the only company that d

anti-money. >> so he did get regeneron, that's right atthe time it was an experimental drug . been authorized for use so that's why they call the fda commissioner asked for this authorization the fda has to provide it within 24 hours for a patient's they don't need the patient's name of the duty of their medical history, all of the drugs there on so they can make sure whatever drug they sign off on is going to react adversely something already on or exacerbate some underlying condition so the white house is calling steve on saying and you do this in a few hours and receive hondas to the career officials they don't know it's trump yet they say we need to go live book on this. the white house basically wants them to cut corners and speeded up and when he realizes it's for trump he's like you want us to cut corners for the president, that'sinsane . but i think one of the people we talked to who was the trumps condition said they were all positive it was the motto monoclonal anti-bodies that were responsible for his quick turnaround because it's one of these drugs if you get early

regeneron has -- regeneron's finally moving up. drip that makes it so that if you do get it and it's serious, it's regeneron. they're shipping 50,000 of these, i don't know how many of these they can make. that's the stock. >> not the vaccine makers. >> i think they're okay. they've had such a run, moderna. i happen to love moderna as a company. pfizer's still not expensive when you look at pfizer versus say lily on the strength of maybe something for alzheimer's, you realize that these are inflated, and yet, regeneron, it's not an expensive stock, which is rather incredible >> right >> regeneron's a great company they've got so many things going for it, not justmont cloeal antibodies they've got a fantastic anticholesterol, but regeneron is the monoclonal antibody that's what making a lot of people live that would have died. >> that's been a priority for desantis in florida, making some comments about the importance of that cocktail. >> you know, i just have to say that testing, daily testing of kids before they go to school. i've

he has opposed masks and vaccine mandates and i think he is promoting monoclonal antibodies and regeneron, so i'm going to say a. before we commit come i want to check, many facebook viewers are saying a as well. a is the lot. >> a is the lie. these may seem random, but has an important my want to highlight. a, yes, we know certain governors are opposing mandates. but the issue is weird, it is weird to oppose a method of prevention such as vaccines and masks and be in favor of an expensive treatment like regeneron. >> how much does it cost per dose? >> it is probably going to differ. this is thousands of dollars. kristen: per dose? >> per dose. whereas your vaccine is free. there is an equity involved here because not everybody symptomatic is not getting monoclonal antibodies. it is weird to wait until the houses on fire to get fire extinguishers. prevention is what we need. there are headlines about special interests and why monoclonal antibodies are being championed. is important because breakthrough infractions that infections can break out in iceland, but if you look at how many cases

so why would he be treated with regeneron's monoclonal antibody if he's not showing symptoms?> there's been a couple of studies around this now where basically, broadly speaking, the regeneron, the monoclonal antibodies, the outcome measure is to keep people out of the hospital. so that's one of the things. and first they were testing it primarily in people who had mild symptoms who were at high risk of potentially having to go to the hospital. and they found that it had very good efficacy there. and then there was a trial looking at asymptomatic people as well, people who might be considered high risk or higher likelihood of needing to be hospitalized. that's the way these antibodies are supposed to work. in a sense the vaccines induce antibodies. they teach your body how to make antibodies. with regeneron you're essentially giving those antibodies. the vaccination antibodies last longer. but the whole point is to give them earlier when people are either minimally or asymptomatic. and it can help prevent the disease and the person needing to be hospitalized. >> the biden admi

then of course he left a therapeutic known as regeneron.had people, a good friend of mine, fully vaccinated, tested positive on saturday, had regeneron and in less than 24 hours i just talked to him about an hour ago, he's feeling great. as a matter of fact he's fishing alone on his boat happier than he's ever been. he said yeah, still 17 days to quarantine. i'm doing great. he is happy. but look at how joe biden took all of that that was already done, million shots going into people's arms a day. when your father-in-law left office, how could they possibly screw it up this bad with open borders and a million people and a high rate of positive covid cases? >> it does make you wonder, how could they do it? the answer is because joe biden and kamala harris are supposedly in charge of our country, so until we get a handle on immigrants free flowing over our southern border, many infected with covid, many have not been tested, they certainly haven't had the vaccine and until we stop using taxpayer funds to ship them all over the country, we are

regeneron is $1500 per dose. he's getting it. ron desantis pushed that as a solution.ink other state taxpayers will pay for it. it's incredible. by far the most expensive option and of course, you can get really sick. so we're also learning the biden administration is preparing to recommend covid booster shots for most adults eight months after they're fully vaccinated. one source tells our dr. sanjay gupta officials will present the first u.s. data that shows waning immunity among vaccinated amer americans. okay, so that's what we hear but then the cdc experts had a call with doctors today and they actually said this. >> we do want to clarify right away that the need for and timing of a covid-19 booster dose has not been established. >> fully vaccinated individuals do not need an additional dose right now. >> okay. so i'm really confused. the cdc did a call with doctors and said you don't need a booster but the biden administration is about to recommend one. what in the world is going on? >> it's hard to understand. the c didc had a meeting where a was presented and s

because, while regeneron may work as a treatment, safe and effective vaccines that provide tremendousction against severe disease and death are abundant and they're easy to get. you can walk into pharmacies, health centers, mobile clinics, or mega sites and get a shot in, like, 20 minutes and be done restaurants are offering them as appetizers now the other day, i went to a dinner party, and we ordered a round of pfizer shots for the table, along with the crab puffs and chicken fingers. [ light laughter ] of course, this has been the case on the right since the start of the pandemic. for some reason, when it comes to vaccines, they say things like, "don't listen to anchors and politicians, talk to your doctor." but then, they have a very different take when it comes to unproven treatments like the anti-malaria drug, hydroxychloroquine, or, most recently, something called ivermectin >> we know that our fda has, in many ways, failed us by not allowing for the use of ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine, both of which are used around the world to reduce covid hospitalizations and deaths >>

regeneron. to me, what i have seen anecdotally and people that have gotten this effusion.s the under therapeutic that is refused to being utilized. >> we need to make this to our outpatient positions and primary care doctors need to have access specifically to subcutaneous forms of monoclonal antibodies to keep people from going into the hospital. >> dr. macario? >> regeneron is just antibodies, you are getting antibodies are good for your system when you are sick. so the overall world of therapeutics has been underexplored and underappreciated. it turns out like we are probably going to get and you say it's just antibodies but apparently very successfully used. i've talked to a lot of frontline covid doctors who see patients every day. >> it works very well. >> so you are vaccinated and have a breakthrough case. >> it's a mild cold. >> okay doctor, thank you. when we come back, big breaking news out of new york. oandrew cuomo and a new york attorney general accusing him of rampant sexual harassment. lawrence jones talks to new yorkers asking if cuomo should resign and wil

and suddenly being my only plan is all y'all take regeneron if you get sick. thoughts. >> my thoughts. you know, first off let me acknowledge and accept what dr. ashby said. as you alluded to, joy, i am the parent of two small elementary age children here in miami-dade county. i'm not alone. millions of parents across the state of florida right now are debating what to do. the other thing that hasn't been important in the news is governor is governor desantis himself ruled against the ability for parents to do the virtual learning option at home. so you're not even allowed to do an online class without withdrawing your children from school. and as inexplicable, off the rails and insane as all this sounds, the only conclusion i think we can logically come to is ron desantis is betting his road to re-election as governor of florida and the 2024 nomination as republican nominee for president is going through the grave yards, the morgues and the hospital rooms of adults and children in florida. there is no logical or reasonable explanation for this, and i think ma

let me look at regeneron shares not only are they climbing at least they were climbing higher they aremoment, down 1.6%, they are also at the center of a trending tornado. republican leadership in states hit hard by the delta variant have been promoting the company 's monoclonal antibody treatment. the drug, and here is where the a little bit of controversy comes in, is being touted by florida governor ron desantis who ramped up calls across the state for floridians infect ed with covid-19 to seek out the antibody treatment but a recent sec filing also discovered a top desantis donor invested millions in regeneron stock last april. all this news, of course comes as texas governor greg abbott announced he's being treated with regeneron after testing positive for covid-19 yesterday, but with the white house earlier today recommending covid booster shots for americans, and they should be getting them eight months after their second vaccination shot, big pharma stocks could see a huge spike in revenue, as the coronavirus vaccine quickly becomes an annual shot just like the flu, maybe. conn

stock price but bought out all of the regeneron last year so it's already been paid for by the federaltake down from florida to give to patience, it has no financial incentive at all. all we are trying to do is help people and this was underutilized for the last nine months and what we found his hospital admissions were going up in florida, most of these people didn't know about this treatment who got hospitalized and we believe they had gotten it, many of them would not have needed to go to the hospital so we raised awareness of it and now have 17 centers i can do 320 treatments a day, will probably have 21 set up by the middle of this week and this is having an impact on keeping people out of the hospital. with the ap did by trying to create a false narrative is some people may have believed and the narrative and think this is not a viable treatment for them so if they are infected, they will not go seek a mono colonial antibody and that will ultimately increase their risk of hospitalization so the ap knew what they were doing, wanted to do a political hit on me and the fallout from

your dad helped with therapeutics like regeneron and others.r dad put in place the stay in mexico policy, built the wall and he ended catch and release. boy, a lot has happened in six or seven months, hasn't it? >> it really has. it's sort of amazing how quickly our country can degenerate with the incompetent leadership. joe biden's only legacy at this point is going to be showing america how good they actually had it under donald trump. the policies are asinine. everything you've been talking about, the whole show, absolutely ridiculous. imagine donald trump release 7,000 covid infected patients into a small town in texas. that doesn't cover the rest of the border so it's probably -- think of how much exponential spread over this disease. they're simply not willing to enforce rules against illegal immigrants. americans, law-abiding american citizens are not second-class citizens in their own country based on the actions of this administration. and it's disgusting. >> sean: i can't really put it any better. but you're right because mask mandate

regeneron, that's donald trump too.an that's saving lives.se breakthrough cases. how do i know? one of my friends, fully vaccinated, got covid on saturday. had a regeneron infusion on sunday and he's feeling great. here it is on wednesday. that all happened because of donald trump. joe biden didn't want the travel ban, didn't push for vaccines. he's giving more rights to illegal immigrants than the hundreds of thousands, now over a million and draconian measures for american citizens. how does that happen in this country? >> it's crazy. president trump provided real leadership, got real answers, secured the border. think about this. march was the highest month on record forut illegal crossings until april. april with eyes month on record until may. may was the highest record until june. this is a bad trend. it's a crisis situation. if joe biden wants to get control of covid, secure the border. instead what does he do? he lectures governor desantis, lecturesea governor abbott. that's how out of touch this guy is with what's going on. frankly,

but trump's older and not necessarily sturdiest of friends, they got regeneron, when they came down with the virus. and yet despite the own website saying it's unproven investigational territory in there's a limited clinical data available, regeneron has retained its good graces in the conservative movement. to the point where, florida governor ron desantis, who state reported a record breaking 26,203 covid cases today, who instead of doing everything possible to try to get people vaccinated, which is one thing you can do as a governor, is out there setting up free monoclonal antibody treatment sites, that require two injections in the stomach in one in each arm. and now, despite having safe and effective vaccines, that according to the data we have, day by day, we're getting more data every, day continue to provide, tremendous protection against hospitalizations, even if those vaccines have not shut down transmission in a way that we initially hoped, despite the fact that we have that, we have now arrived at perhaps the most gothic chapter of the story, which is people taking livestock

they are saying he's doing well and he's on regeneron. pretty peculiar. dr., how do you explain this? he tested positive after at least two, maybe a third vaccine dose? >> honestly, stephanie, i can't really explain any of it. first of all, if he did get a third immunization, why is he being tested on a daily basis? i don't really understand that. if he did test positive, could it be a false positive, and if he's asymptomatic, why is he getting monoclonal antibodies? there's pieces missing here. hard to speculate. we're not getting a lot of information and all i can say is i wish the governor well. sounds like he's doing well and i'm glad for that, but we do have an incredible humanitarian tragedy unfolding here in texas and i think that's where the emphasis has to be. >> it's also a reminder to those who are saying they don't want to take the vaccine because it's not fully fda approved, neither is regeneron, which is what the governor is on right now. sam, we're expecting to hear more from the biden administration today on boosters. what do you know? >> yes,

but trump's bolder and not necessarily sturdiest of friends got regeneron when it came down with the virus. and it's an unproved investigational therapy and limited clinical data available, regeneron has retained its good graces in the conservative movement to the point where florida governor ron desantis instead of doing everything possible to try to get people vaccinated, which is one thing you could do if you're governor, is out there, setting up free monoclonal antibody injection sites which include two injections in the stomach and one in the arm. according to the data we have day by day, getting more data every day, continue to provide tremendous protection against hospitalization, severe illness and death even if those vaccine s have not shut down transmission in the way we initially hoped. despite the fact we have that, we have now arrived at the most gothic chapter of this story, which is people taking livestock dewormer to treat covid. yes. the stuff used to treat parasites in animals. again, why? it flows from the same conviction, right? this guiding principle. there has t

but he is being treated with regeneron's monoclonal antibody treatment. so for those of you who are concerned about putting things in your body that you're not so sure about, yet regeneron. put it up, danny. this is him, the governor, at a crowded indoor event, at a republican club meeting the governor attended just last night. maskless. governor abbott fully vaccinated. he's been refusing mask mandates. he apparently refused to follow the cdc guidelines for indoor mask wearing in areas of high transmission p because there he is maskless at this p event. and now he has covid. and he could have spread it to others because he is maskless. he is lucky he is vaccinated because it stems the severity of the disease. too many people are not. boy. you cannot make this up. the governor has been actively preventing other officials from mandating masks that could stop infection and stop the spread. so think about it. like i said before, this virus has no politics. the science is very clear. get vaccinated. mask up. >>> a former translator and interpreter for the u.s

there's the regeneron project product, referred to as regen-cov. and then there's the gsk and vir product. each of these products targets the spike protein of sars-cov-2. next slide. so, you can do an indication for these antibodies that are twofold. the first is to treat infection with sars-cov-2. next slide. and in this regard, clinical trials have demonstrated that early treatment with anti-sars-cov-2 monoclonal antibodies can reduce the risk of covid-19 hospitalization or death by 70 to 85 percent. it is important to emphasize that this must be done early in infection and not wait, of course, until a person is sick enough to be hospitalized. that's when you get the best effect. and again, being an underutilized intervention, we want people out there, including physicians, as well as potential patients, to realize the advantage of this very effective way of treating early infection. next slide. now, if you look at the people who should benefit from this, this is a list from the fda and the nih treatment guidelines about all of the people who may

right wing politicians like ron de santis who is working hard to push regeneron.y. it's because one of his major donors companies have invested millions of dollars into the antibody treatment. if you know anything about maga 2.0, the guiding principle is money over people. joining me is ben collins and charlie sykes. charlie, i have to go to you first. you and i share -- having worked in talk radio and what i can tell you is long before there was a maga, right wing talk radio was creating a separate sub country inside the united states where they believe their own facts. they believe the rush limbaughs and the mini limbaughs more than they hear on the news. they were already prime for maga before maga got here. you wrote a piece talking about how the same ethic has transferred onto the vaccines and the people who are feeding this at the local level are getting high on their own supply and dropping dead. >> yeah. there's a pattern here. we have the talk show hosts who mock the vaccines, mock masks, who are even writemasks, even w of the mask. and then, they contrac

pharma company gets rich on it and yet we can only talk about pharma manufactured antibodies from regeneron. we can't talk about human antibodies that doesn't make anyone rich. a harvard virology just dismissed from the cdc vaccine covid work group because he had a different opinion on the j and j pause, he thought it was excessive. you have seen this get in line strategy. the fda experts were never convened to approve the covid vaccine. >> will: dr. makary, just to push you though why? why are we so singular focused? >> it's this new idea that you get in line, if you are not on board, get out of the way. but the purpose of science is to challenge deeply held assumptions, and in our research team at hopkins, we have a team arrival, different ideas. we have weaponized the idea of criticize tioning research. with you criticize any publication ever produced but it's now weaponized because if you are not in line with a top-down agenda then you are somehow misinformation. >> will: what about profit, dr. makary? what about following the money? >> if you look at the booster agenda, they have made

and about the anti-body. >> he did get regeneron, it had been authorized for use yet that's why theythe fda commissioner to ask for the authorization and the fda had to provide it within 24 hours and they don't need the patient's name, it can be anonymous but you see his medical history,all the drugs thereon, they can make sure whatever drug is going to react adversely to something or exacerbate some underlying condition . the white house is calling steve upon saying can you do this in a few hours and steve hahn goes to the career officials and they don't know it's trump yet but they say we need to go by the book on this. the white house basically wants them to cut corners and speeded up and when he realizes it's for trump he says he wants us to cut corners for the president ? that's insane. but one of the people we talked to who was familiar with trump's condition said they were almost positive it was the monoclonal anti-body that was responsible for his quick turnaround. it's one of these drugs if you get it early in the course of the infection it can be highly effective . we don't

so when people that are fully vaccinated or not get covid they can get the infusion of regeneron as quicklypossible and that will be available all throughout the state. you are in the process of doing it everywhere right now, is that correct? >> that's correct. we've already had a forest sites up and by the end of the week we will have 10-15. they will each be able to do ten or 20 treatments per day which is a lot. we will do thousands of these which are available every single day, and you and i know people. they took this, they had symptoms and it was resolved. it can keep you out of the hospital and save your life. if more people need to know about it and that's one of the reasons we are doing the centers so that people understand if you are covid positive you have the ability to do early treatment which is great. >> sean: and that has probably been the most under therapeutic out there. our friend governor abbott is in our prayers tonight and i know he had the infusion himself. i applaud you and others who are doing this and setting this up immediately, and now the science shows that it w

regeneron. you named it. record speed vaccine. we gave this to president biden. he squandered it. he had the real test with the delta variant. he's bungled everything. nobody trusts the federal government. they're the greatest purveyor of misinformation. you look at the mask debacle. president joe biden saying get vaccinated, you can toss the mask. now they're saying wear the mask if you're vaccinated. how does this instill confidence? it doesn't. president right was right on the science. schools should be open, churches should be open. we locked down, got a vaccine. that house been the model. we've been consistent. joe biden is all over the map. >> sean: it's bias by omission. if donald trump had wide open borders, some estimates of 20% of illegals crossing the border with covid. then they put overcrowded cages that biden built. then dispersed into the dark of the night to every state in the country. based on fake news acosta's standard, any american that gets covid and gets hospitalized and maybe dies because we won't control the border any longer, we have the lowest rate of ill

he is being treated with rejenre regeneron's monoclonal antibody treatment. for those of you not sure about putting things in your body, regeneron. >> there he is, maskless at this event. he could have spread it to others because he is maskless. he's lucky he is vaccinated because it stems the disease. many are not. you cannot make this up. the governor has been actively preventing other officials from mandating masks that could stop infection and stop the spread. so think about it. like i said before, this virus has no politics. the science is very clear. get vaccinated. mask up. >>> a former translator and interpreter trying desperately to save his family still in afghanistan. his message for president biden as his homeland descends into chaos. >> the united states made an extraordinary sacrifice in afghanistan. 2,448 americans lost their lives in afghanistan. tens of thousands of americans were injured in the war in afghanistan over 20 years trying to help that country stand up and being able to defend itself. joint pain, swelling, tenderness. my psoriasis

lily centers so whether people are fully vaccinated or not get covid they can get the infusion of regenerony as possible and that's going to be available all across the state. you're doing that right now, correct? >> that's right. we already have four sites up. we're going to have by the end of the week we'll have 10 to 15. they are going to each be able to do 320 treatments a day, sean, which is a lot. beal doing thousands of these, available every single day, and you and i know people, we know people, they took this, they had symptoms, and it was resolved. it can keep you out of the hospital and they can save your life. more people need to know about it so that's one of the reasons why we're doing these centers so people understand, if you're covid positive you actually have an ability to do early treatment which is great. >> sean: and that's probably been the most under-reported therapeutic out there. our friend, governor abbott, he's in our prayers, i know he had the infusion himself. i applaud you and others for doing this and setting this up immediately now that the science shows the
