But Trump should have only accepted the same treatment as anyone else. It IS "experimental" though. I sure wouldn't want some "experimental" anything to do with my health, thank you! Yes - an example - look at ScoMo's new vaccine: https://www.naturalhealth365.com/covid-19-vaccine-trial-failure-3573.html A second person could end up paralysed. | |

| Trump gets help that you or I wouldn't get:
https://au.news.yahoo.com/fatigued-trump-receiving-experimental-antibodies-205026055.html
US President Donald Trump is receiving an experimental treatment of synthetic antibodies for Covid-19, his doctor said Friday, and is "fatigued but in good spirits."
Trump received a single dose of Regeneron's antibody cocktail, according to a letter issued by White House physician Sean Conley.
The treatment is undergoing clinical trials but hasn't received any form of regulatory approval.
"He's being evaluated by a team of experts, and together we'll be making recommendations to the President and First Lady in regards to next best steps," Conley said.
Trump -- who has repeatedly cast doubt on the seriousness of the pandemic -- first announced in an overnight tweet that he and First Lady Melania Trump, 50, had tested positive and were going into quarantine.
Earlier this week, Regeneron announced results from one of its early-stage trials which showed its drug, which is infused intravenously, reduced viral load and recovery time in non-hospitalized Covid-19 patients.
"We have begun discussing our findings with regulatory authorities while continuing our ongoing trial," said George Yancopoulos, the company's president and chief scientific officer on Tuesday.
The US biotech firm is concurrently running late-stage trials for hospitalized Covid-19 patients and for the drug's potential use as a prophylaxis.
Antibodies are infection-fighting proteins made by the immune system that can bind to particular structures on the surfaces of pathogens and prevent them from invading cells.
Vaccines work by teaching the body to make its own antibodies, while scientists are also testing ready-made antibodies from the blood of recovered patients, called convalescent plasma.
But it is not possible to make convalescent plasma a mass treatment.
Researchers can also comb through the antibodies produced by recovered patients and select the most effective out of thousands, and then manufacture it at scale.
Regeneron's experimental Covid-19 drug, called REGN-COV2, is a combination of two antibodies, referred to as a "cocktail."
The idea is it will have a better chance at working if the virus mutates in order to evade the blocking action of a single antibody.
Last year, a triple-antibody cocktail developed by Regeneron was shown to be effective against the Ebola virus. | |

Andrews confirms he will not resign as Premier over failed hotel quarantine 26/09/2020
VIDEO: Be inspired by Danny:- https://www.skynews.com.au/details/_6194763177001
Daniel Andrews has stated he will not resign from his post as Victorian Premier over the failed hotel quarantine scheme despite acknowledging some responsibility fell on him as the leader of the state.
"I'm ultimately accountable for the decisions and the performance of the government," he said. "Our focus isn't about what occurred yesterday or today, it's about what happens tomorrow."
The Premier said he was waiting for the findings of the hotel quarantine inquiry before providing any further comment on any failures and responsibilities for the failed program.

| The reason Dan got voted back in was because the other bloke (Matthew Guy) was piss weak, he resigned and has been replaced as Liberal Leader, by Michael O'Brien. | |

| Dan has spoken on new laws.
Fines increased to $5,000 for meeting at someone's house or outside.
Curfew lifted. | |

| Dan is responsible for the longest and strictest lockdown in the entire world. He has turned Victoria into a totalitarian police state. | |

"I am disappointed that my integrity has sought to be undermined," Ms Mikakos said in a statement on Twitter. "I know that my statement and evidence to the inquiry would have been uncomfortable for some. "I have today written to the Governor of Victoria to resign my commissions as a Minister effective today.

I don't understand why no one knows who is responsible for hiring the private contractors?
It's easy - just find the purchase order for the money to be paid and it will be signed by someone. That person needs to be asked why they signed it. This bloke seems to be the one who looks after "the Coordination of Treasury and Finance – COVID-19". Perhaps somebody should ask him? https://www.premier.vic.gov.au/tim-pallas | |

| Jonesy exposes Dangerous Dan's draconian ambitions.Dan is very popular with Victorians There are 'wider issues at stake' than coronavirus24/09/2020 VIDEO: Jonesy explains the sinister Socialist motivations:- https://www.skynews.com.au/details/_6194110569001There are wider and longer lasting issues at stake than the coronavirus in Australia says Sky News host Alan Jones. “For example, this week the Premier of Victoria tried to introduce legislation which would have locked up anyone, so long as there was ‘a reasonable suspicion’ such a person might be likely to fail quarantine rules,” Mr Jones said. “And who would do the locking up? … designated authorised officers,” Mr Jones said. “Designated, of course, by the Andrews government”. Mr Jones said the legislation would have given power to remove children from their parents. “Transforming Victoria into beyond a police state,” he said. Mr Jones said, "but most disturbingly, why has the national government in Canberra been silent". https://www.skynews.com.au/details/_6194110569001 | |
