It's official: Covid pill 'Paxlovid' doesn't work

[sd_shooter]

The faux 'vaccines' didn't work and neither does The Pill

The business asserted that it will nonetheless incorporate the new information in its impending application to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to request complete authorization for the administration of Paxlovid to high-risk COVID-19 individuals.

$100 billion in sales make it a very successful drug. Who care if it works?

if you read the article, it seems a statistical thing. People who are "low risk", by definition already have hardly any hospitalization or deaths. You can't reduce deaths, if deaths are already at zero (which they were in this study, both the placebo group, and the drug group). Eventually, one person in a larger placebo group did die. A single one. Statistically, that proves nothing, and they are admitting it. It's also showing what many have known all along, that for the majority of low-risk people, there's no need for any special "treatment" at all, it's just not that bad.

If only they did the same study for the vaccines. ASR kept trying to tell us it was in phase 3 etc. Yet never addressed the fact that the control arm was vaccinated 3 months after the study started, making it impossible to complete the double blind RCT.

So covid is not dangerous enough to provide sufficient fodder to demonstrate statistical significance of efficacy of treatment. Hmmm.

A few Tylenos and a box of Kleenex is enough for 99% of people. (Elderly, Obese and those with pre-existing conditions: You already have one foot in the grave, nothing will save you)

The goal for these rushed therapeutics and the pseudo vax was to generate high revenues. They have worked very well at what they were designed to do, which has little to do with any virus.

Also a great way to tag all the subservient followers. Those who do not comply are marginalized.

But at least we will be alive.

Wife had Covid last week (she's unvaccinated and this is 2nd time she's had it). Doctor sent her home with "Paxlovid" and told her to take it. Her symptoms were fairly mild (low grade fever, head cold, stuffy, achy...normal cold stuff) and far less than last time she had it in January.

She took one dose of it....and then swore never again to take it again. Side effects were terrible for her. Massively upset stomach (to the point of not being able to keep anything down) and horrible taste in her mouth. The side effects were way worse than Covid. Apparently they're pretty common (https://www.yalemedicine.org/news/13...lovid-covid-19).

Bottom line...would not recommend it and sounds like it's efficacy is marginal...at best.

Actually it's worse than that. Paxlovid makes your u more susceptible to covid.
