Please try and get monoclonal antibodies over antibiotics ASAP from your doctor based on age you qualify

Please don't skip any doses. The medication level remains in the bloodstream after the course is completed. Discuss the monoclonal antibody infusion with your physician. Watch for signs of breathing difficulty and sudden worsening. Most patients recover within one month.
