@hello1234 According to the CDC there are 3 available antivirals which can be administered for at-risk patients, as well as the possible use of Convalescent Plasma.

Of course, being a transplant patient…you know the drill. Your team will be the first call you make with the confirmation of a positive covid test. ☺️

Hi @loribmt 😊
I always love hearing from you!! Thank you so much for the link to the current CDC information.... I really appreciate it!
If anyone has any experience with Remdesivir or the plasma, please share. (I know Paxloid is not really an option for us).
I like to be armed with knowledge before I need it just in case I come in contact with covid.
When I got covid last time, I was sent to my local hospital for a monoclonal antibodies infusion that worked like a miracle. So I mentally want a new plan in my head should I run into covid again. Of course calling my nurse coordinator will be first on my list. 😊
