Saw a commercial for Plaxovid (Pfizer's covid treatment pill) and the fine print at the bottom of the screen read:

quote:

In a clinical trial of unvaccinated patients, 9 out of 1039 taking Paxlovid were hospitalized, and none died. 66 out of 1046 taking placebo were hospitalized and 12 died (from any cause).


It also stated that it can only be used while the emergency declaration is in place and listed a bunch of possible side effects. Still no list of possible side effects of the vaxxine.

The generic is horsey sauce. I recommended the generic.

I guess the commercial didn't say that you test positive a second time a week or so later. Happened to Mush Brain and his wife.

I was prescribed Paxlovid when I was diagnosed earlier this year. I was leery at first to take it but the NP explained that it's not a vaccine, but similar to Tamiflu. It's an antiviral. It's a series of 3 pills for 5 days. I will say though, that it works. My fever came down immediately. I've seen the commercial but I didn't notice this,
