So... What is the connection between DeSantis and Regeneron...

Gov. Ron DeSantis has zeroed in on monoclonal antibody therapy as a lifeline for COVID-19 patients, holding press conferences around the state where he name-checks a specific drugmaker — Regeneron — which is a major investment for one of his largest campaign contributors.
------------
Republican governors who have banned school mask mandates are embracing Regeneron Pharmaceuticals ’ Covid-19 antibody therapy, and shares of Regeneron are rising.
