President Donald Trump is receiving an experimental treatment of synthetic antibodies for COVID-19, his doctor said Friday, and is “fatigued but in good spirits.”
Trump received a single dose of Regeneron’s antibody cocktail, according to a letter issued by White House physician Sean Conley.
The treatment is undergoing clinical trials but hasn’t received any form of regulatory approval.
“He’s being evaluated by a team of experts, and together we’ll be making recommendations to the President and First Lady in regards to next best steps,” Conley said.
