Course, no one wants to hear good news on this board. Not at least till Biden wins. Which I find interesting - cause I doubt there is one person that reads (or at least posts) on this site that will be voting for Trump. .
Here's some good news:

Quote:Regeneron’s anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibody cocktail has significantly reduced medical visits in ambulatory COVID-19 patients. The phase 2/3 clinical trial linked REGN-COV2 to a 57% decline in medical visits associated with COVID-19 in the 29 days after treatment.
The downside is that this is an IV antibody cocktail, but you could imagine a case where high risk patients who have been exposed get the cocktail as prophylaxis. Cutting the hospitalization rate by over half is real progress.
