Dana White defends Joe Rogan by saying you can't get monoclonal antibodies anymore
Dana White has slammed medical professionals and pharmaceutical companies for allegedly suspending the availability of monoclonal antibodies and Ivermectin. The UFC president recently revealed that he used them to recover from COVID-19.
White, during the post-fight press conference following UFC Vegas 46, said:
"How about this? Ever since I came out and said what I did. It's almost impossible now to get monoclonal antibodies. They're making it so you can't get them. Medicine that absolutely works, they're keeping it... Ivermectin and monoclonal antibodies have been around for a long time, and now all of a sudden you can't get them to save your life... I was able to make one phone call and get it done, anybody could've called and [got them]... now, Rogan's been talking about it. I went crazy talking about it. You can't get those things to save your life now, literally!"
Back in December 2021, Dana White tested positive for COVID-19. White shared that Joe Rogan, who regularly interviews medical professionals, recommended Ivermectin and monoclonal antibodies as treatments.
The UFC president pointed out that Rogan's remedies helped almost 40 other people, including himself, recover from the virus. He added that the treatment worked for himself and his family.

"Are you a doctor?" - Journalist agitates Dana White at post-fight press conference
Immediately after Dana White hinted towards a suspicious shortage of monoclonal antibodies and Ivermectin, a journalist asked the UFC president whether he was a doctor to back up his claims.
In response to the demeaning question, White said:
"There you go. Here he comes! No [I'm not a doctor], but I took [the drugs] and they worked for me so why shouldn't I be able to take them again? Or other people. Why shouldn't we able to take them? They f***ing hand out pain pills like they're tic-tacs. Monoclonal antibodies and ivermectin won't do anything to you, and pain pills kill you! Fact. And I'm not a doctor but that's a fact!"
