They WILL get Monoclonal Antibody treatments, because, golly gee, their "medically trained" Governor advises that it's a good option.
But they WON'T get vaccinated, because they don't trust Doctors or Science, and are afraid of it's effects. Yet they're NOT AT ALL concerned about the effects of the monoclonal drugs.

is the vaccines had many more people in the Phase 3 trial then Regeneron. At this point, vaccines are much, much more studied but hey, who ya gonna listen to? They are truly deplorable.
