<p>Florida Governor Ron DeSantis said that he was &#8220;very, very concerned&#8221; with Democrat President Joe Biden&#8217;s decision to restrict the distribution of monoclonal antibodies to states amid a surge in demand by states in the South.</p>
<p>&#8220;Just last week on September 9th, President Joe Biden said that his administration would be increasing shipments of monoclonal antibodies in September by 50%, and yet on September 13th, HHS announced that it was seizing control of the monoclonal antibody supply and that it would control distribution, and then on September 14th, the announcement was more than 50% of the monoclonal antibodies that had been used in Florida were going to be reduced,&#8221; DeSantis said. &#8220;So this is a dramatic reduction, and I&#8217;d say it&#8217;s doubly problematic because what Shane Strum and folks in Tampa General and these other hospital systems that have been doing this, they&#8217;re not getting it from the state.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;What the HHS and the Biden administration is now doing is they&#8217;re saying that all of the reduced amount will go to the state, and we&#8217;re responsible not only for sourcing our sites, which we&#8217;re happy to do, but any infusion center, any provider, any hospital will have to come through the state, and to just spring this on us starting next week, we&#8217;re going to have to do that,&#8221; DeSantis continued. &#8220;There&#8217;s going to be a huge disruption and patients are going to suffer as a result of this.&#8221;</p>
<p>DeSantis said that he is going to &#8220;work like hell to make sure&#8221; that Florida &#8220;can overcome the obstacles that HHS and the Biden administration&#8221; are imposing on the state, adding that the treatment has saved lives in the state.</p>
<p>&#8220;To just kind of pull the rug out from anyone a week after the president himself said they were going to be increasing the distributions by 50%, it&#8217;s very, very problematic,&#8221; DeSantis said. “What I am doing though, is we&#8217;re going to try to cover the bases.&#8221;</p>
<p>DeSantis stated that he had a call yesterday with GlaxoSmithKline executives and he thinks that Florida is going to be able to order their new monoclonal antibody directly from the company so he won&#8217;t have to deal with Biden&#8217;s restriction on the life-saving treatment.</p>

<p>“Americans will die because of Biden’s despicable decision to punish his political enemies in red states by restricting their ability to secure life-saving monoclonal antibody treatments for all that need them,” Trump tweeted. “Their blood is directly on Joe’s hands.”</p>
<p>“Antibody treatments aren’t a substitute for vaccines But they have prevented thousands of hospitalizations including in breakthrough cases,” Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) added on Twitter. “Now in a move that reeks of partisan payback against states like Florida, the Biden administration is rationing these treatments.”</p>
