Evusheld is a combination of two long-acting antibodies (tixagevimab and cilgavimab). It’s a drug designed to protect clinically vulnerable people against Covid in cases where vaccines don’t work. A good example is people who have been on the chemotherapy drug Rituximab, which causes much worse Covid outcomes and also reduces vaccine efficacy. Another example is people with primary or secondary immunodeficiency.
