Gov. Ron DeSantis was in St. Cloud on Tuesday to open another monoclonal antibody treatment center.
He said the fight against COVID-19 isn’t just about the vaccine. DeSantis, who has taken heat for focusing more on these treatment centers rather than pushing the vaccine, said there are so many breakthrough cases that vaccines aren’t enough.
DeSantis said Tuesday that we need both in the fight against the delta variant.

“It’s two sides of the same coin; one is treatment, one is prevention,” DeSantis said.
The sites are being credited by some for bringing down the number of COVID-19 patients in hospitals.
