Evushield antibodies?

[femmocrat]

Has anyone qualified for Evushield antibodies treatment yet? Just got a lengthy email from our HC provider about who would be qualified. I would be eligible according to their list of immunocomromised individuals. I plan to ask my specialist next visit. When I asked her about the fourth booster, she said she preferred this when it becomes available. I am hopeful!

What do we know about it?

been fully authorized by the FDA yet. My husband is on the list to get it. Our infectious disease doctor and our neurologist recommended that he get the shots. We were told that it would be two shots in the butt, one right after the other. A friend said that she would be getting an infusion not shots at the same clinic for Evusheld which didn't make any sense to me. My husband can't get the 2nd booster until April and I don't know if that will be necessary if he gets Evusheld. I think that it will be administered every six months but again check with your doctor(s).
Note: just found out that it's two shots but there is a saline solution infusion that goes along with it.

2. Thank you very much for the information.

I am also holding off on the second booster. The antibodies were available by lottery at first, but I think they are becoming more widely available. Hope so anyhow!
