The Tokyo Metropolitan Government has started a treatment method for the new coronavirus called "antibody cocktail therapy" at accommodation facilities on the 13th.

"Antibody cocktail therapy" is a treatment method in which the antibody acts to suppress the action of the virus by instilling two drugs at the same time, and it has been shown in overseas clinical trials that the risk of hospitalization and death is reduced by 70%.



In Tokyo, administration of this treatment has begun at two metropolitan and public hospitals and some private medical institutions.



In addition to this, the capital started "antibody cocktail therapy" at one hotel in the accommodation facility established by the capital from the 13th.



It means that the system as a temporary medical facility has been set up by assigning doctors.



In addition, we will prepare necessary medicines so that we can start at any time at "priority medical institutions" that intensively accept about 120 severely ill patients and moderately ill patients in Tokyo.
