Results from LimitationRecognizer: We detected the following sentences addressing limitations in the study:By avoiding limitations associated with intravenous administration, subcutaneous mAb treatment and post-exposure prophylaxis outpatient treatment location sites can potentially reach disadvantaged neighborhoods and low middle-income countries more readily. Our study has limitations. First, nontreated controls were matched by EUA-eligible risk factors only and we were unable to determine symptom severity (whether symptomatic or asymptomatic) in these patients. Thus, many nontreated patients may have been asymptomatic and thereby at low risk of hospitalization, which would tend to bias results against mAb treatment. Second, although adjusted for statistically, more patients in the subcutaneous group were fully vaccinated compared to the intravenous group at all sites, which may also lower risk of hospitalization and death. However, “fully vaccinated” on the referral form meant receipt of two doses of an mRNA vaccine or one dose of an adenovirus vaccine—further details on time from last dose to mAb referral, type of vaccine, or whether or not a third primary series dose had been administered to immunocompromised patients was unknown and therefore fully vaccinated cannot be interpreted as fully protected. This difference was also mitigated when the analysis was restricted to patients treated at same sites. Finally, the mean time from symptom onset to mAb treatment in our study was 6 days. While these therapies work best earliest in disease course, administering treatment faster i...
