First, Greg Abbott received a third booster dose of the vaccine, something not yet available to the public. Now he’s receiving monoclonal antibody treatment, something the FDA has only authorized for those with “high risk for progression to severe COVID-19.” Must be nice.
It occurs to me that thinking of this as a privileged depends in part on thinking of the FDA process as very excessively long, which many people here do.
But take the perspective of most people, who think of the FDA process as good and justified, and using politicians as test subjects for experimental drugs actually sounds cool as hell.
