Washington DC, President Trump’s re-election campaign and the Republican National Committee today filed a lawsuit in Arizona alleging that Maricopa County incorrectly rejected votes cast by in-person voters on Election Day. When a machine detects an overvote on a ballot, poll workers should inform in-person voters of the error and give them an opportunity to correct the issue. Instead, poll workers in Maricopa County pressed, and told voters to press, a green button to override the error. As a result, the machines disregarded the voter’s choices in the overvoted races. The campaign has collected declarations from voters who witnessed the problem and alleges that the problem occurred on a large scale in Maricopa County.  Voters can submit additional declarations at DontTouchTheGreenButton.com.

Ridgewood NJ, according to Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security , ELI LILLY A recent study published in the New England Journal of Medicine last week reported that convalescent plasma derived monoclonal antibody treatment (LY-CoV555), developed by Eli Lilly, showed clinical benefit in patients. The study found that patients experienced decreased viral loads and severity, and had no serious adverse effects in outpatients. The phase II trial involved outpatients that had mild to moderate COVID-19. A total of 452 patients participated, receiving either low, medium or high concentration of the antibody, or placebo. Researchers measured the change in viral load after 11 days of treatment, and the study has reported on interim findings. Patients receiving the medium dose (2800 mg) had about a 3 fold reduction in viral load. Differences among placebo and treatment groups were non-significant and smaller for both the low and the high dosage categories. However, patients receiving any antibody dose had lower symptom severity as well as lower hospitalization rates than placebo. Additionally, the percentage of adverse events was similar across treatment and placebo groups.
