Indianapolis-based Eli Lilly and Co. (NYSE: LLY) is partnering with local

challenges this virus has presented, including complexities experienced with
intravenous administration during the pandemic,” said Rob Metcalf, senior
vice president of clinical development at Lilly. “We are pleased to share
our insights with the goal of enabling health systems to quickly provide
access to the COVID-19 antibody therapies needed to fight this devastating
virus in high-risk symptomatic patients.”
