I’m glad your symptoms are gone! I was very sick, so happy I received the treatment, as I’m much improved. My transplant team also said that the monoclonal antibodies would over protection against Covid for 3-6 months..

The virus “pieces” can cause a positive PCR reading for three months after symptoms have stoped. CDC recommends an antigen test. I took one yesterday so I could return to work and it was negative. Yet, I still have a sore throat and fatigue.

Thanks for that information. I also learned that today from our state department of health, but I wasn’t told to use an antigen test. Good to know! Best wishes to you for a full recovery!

So sorry to hear that you've had "the plague". What a terrifying experience for us transplants! I'm wondering if the monoclonal antibodies you were given were the AstraZeneca Evusheld or something else. I heard about it on NPR this morning, that it was approved in December and that it provides about 6 months of protection from the virus. News to me! I hope you are feeling better everyday.
