People who couldn't get it were unable due to political interference, not because of any shortage.

You should stop listening to TV doctors and start listening to the ones who are less interested in camera time, and more interested in treating their patients.
And add to the list they did the promotion of Remdesivir who was to Covid to what Tamiflu was to H1N1. https://www.epatienthealthcare.com/r...-like-tamiflu/

Read the article. It’s a nasal spray that has been shown to destroy the virus.

Quote:
Results of clinical trials conducted in the United Kingdom have shown that a nitric oxide nasal spray (NONS, SaNOtize) is both a safe and effective antiviral treatment to prevent COVID-19 transmission and symptom duration, as well as reduce symptom severity and damage in those already infected, according to the study authors.

During the randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 2 trial, the investigators assessed 79 patients with confirmed COVID-19 who were given the spray early following diagnosis. The results following treatment demonstrated that the spray significantly reduced the level of SARS-CoV-2, even in patients with high viral loads, according to the study.

“NONS destroys the virus, blocks entry into and halts viral replication within the nasal cavity, which rapidly reduces viral load.

Read the article? Are you kidding? This is City-Data. The only thing that matters is what comes before ".com" in the URL. Everything, from the credibility of the article down to its content, can be determined from that.

Nitrous oxide was also commonly used by college students and others in a small canister referred to as a whippet.

Quote:
A small canister (usually 8 or 16g) of nitrous oxide gas (N2O). Used officially in making whipped cream, but more often used recreationally to for its dissociative effects. If used properly and in moderation whippits are harmless. However, improper inhalation (e.g. wearing a mask or putting a bag over one's head) can lead to oxygen deprivation, and heavy use can lead to vitamin B12 deficiency. You'd have to be a complete moron to put a bag over your head in any situation, and the B12 deficiency is easily treated, so nitrous is a pretty safe drug.

I said call my doctor if there is an issue. He didn't but gave me the stink eye the whole time. There is a lot of ego and group think and politics in medicine probably more now than ever.
CVS filled mine . But on another unrelated med they called the Dr because of a dosage. Never denied anything it’s not their place. They need to call the Dr for clarification. And if you die to their personal decision - can he held liable.
