Eli Lilly and Company and its Bamlanivimab and Etesevimab
The company has newly received authorization of emergency use authorization for bamlanivimab and etesevimab, administered together, to include emergency use as post-exposure prophylaxis for Covid-19. The emergency use is applicable to patients exposed to an individual infected with the SARS-CoV-2 virus or patients who are at high risk of hospitalization. The authorization enables treatment of high-risk patients over 12 years who are not fully vaccinated or who are not expected to mount an adequate immune response to complete vaccination, or have been exposed to an individual infected with SARS-CoV-2, or those who are at high risk of exposure to an individual infected with Covid-19, including the elderly and prisoners. In 2020, Eli Lilly and Company reported total revenues of USD 24.5 billion. The pharmaceutical company recently announced its Q2 results – its revenues exceed, but profits are far from estimates. The year-on-year increase was roughly 23 % and a total revenue rose to $ 6.7 billion.
