Still no mention of hydroxychloroquine.
Some detail on Donnie's treatment so far:
Quote:

The President's physician, Sean Conley, said Mr Trump "remains fatigued but in good spirits" after being treated with an experimental antibody cocktail for COVID-19.

Dr Conley said in a statement that the 74-year-old President received an intravenous dose of Regeneron Pharmaceuticals' dual antibody and was also taking zinc, vitamin D, famotidine, melatonin and aspirin.

Regeneron's drug, REGN-COV2, is part of a class of experimental COVID-19 drugs known as monoclonal antibodies: manufactured copies of human antibodies to the virus that are being studied for use in patients with early illness.

The technique is already in wide use for treating a range of illnesses.

Data so far is limited for COVID-19 antibodies, but US infectious disease chief Anthony Fauci is among those saying it has promise.

Regeneron this week reported trial results showing that its antibody drug improved symptoms in non-hospitalised COVID-19 patients, with no serious side effects, and said it planned to talk with the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) about an emergency use authorisation.
