COVID-19 Treatment Resources:
January 24, 2022 Update: Over the past two weeks Omicron has taken over as the dominant variant in Kings. As a result and upon updates to FDA authorized use parameters for some products, there will be a shift in the type of monoclonal antibody treatments offered. Those originally used, commonly referred to as RegenCov and Bam-Ete (Bamlanivimab and Etesevimab) are unlikely to be effective against Omicron (Coronavirus (COVID-19) Update: FDA Limits Use of Certain Monoclonal Antibodies to Treat COVID-19 Due to the Omicron Variant | FDA). Instead, providers will need to rely on oral antivirals and monoclonal antibody products such as Sotrovimab for recently diagnosed high-risk patients. Please be advised that these medications are in extremely short supply, so their use will be limited until additional allocations become available.
KCDPH partners with Adventist Health to offer COVID-19 treatments to high-risk individuals when medically appropriate. Please note that KCDPH does not offer treatment directly, and treatment is not a replacement for vaccination.
To be assessed for COVID-19 monoclonal antibody or antiviral therapies, contact your primary care provider or any of the following locations. Hours listed below do not correspond with available treatment times.
