In the letter, Ladapo accuses the Biden administration of "Actively preventing" shipments of Regeneron, a monoclonal therapy for COVID patients.
NEW: Florida Surgeon General says Biden Admin is "Actively preventing" distribution of monoclonal antibodies by pausing shipments of Regeneron, in letter to HHS Sec.
"The sudden suspension of multiple monoclonal antibody therapy treatments from distribution to Florida removes a health care provider's ability to decide the best treatment options for their patients in this state," Ladapo wrote.
"Setting aside the question of how the initial estimate was so inaccurate, if CDC's new estimate of #Omicron prevalence is precise then it suggests that a good portion of the current hospitalizations we're seeing from COVID may still be driven by Delta infections," Gottlieb wrote on Twitter.

Lack of the monoclonal treatment may cost some patients their lives.
Preventing the Regeneron shipments does no good, but it can do great harm to some COVID patients.
