I thought Paxlovid was supposed to be the cadillac of covid drugs. That's what our governor took when he got sick. It's tiring to listen to these politicians touting vaccinations and then they all get sick even with being vaccinated themselves.
I'll pass, thanks.
My doctor claimed the other antiviral drug is better but that the US doesn’t use it, it’s more used in the UK. Of course there were a few US studies claiming that other one wasn’t as effective but you can never trust that these things are legit
How does it seem to be working? Both Biden/Fauci rebounded and had worse symptoms on the drug then they probably would have off the drug. The current variants don’t cause severe disease in anyone. If you end up in the ICU from these variants, 99% it’s because you developed an autoimmune condition.
I'm hoping and wanting to agree with you. It will take more time and study to see if the treatment is no longer significantly helping the aged and high medical risks.

Yes and not to mention that with each new variant, a new vaccine has to be created which takes months. It comes out just about the time another new variant arrives. It's like playing whack-a-mole

If by the other antiviral drug you mean molnupiravir then nope, that drug isn’t effective either. It’s also a mutagenic drug which not only can encourage new variants but introduce a cancer causing mutation in your own genome.
Molnupiravir is not new, it’s been around for decades but never approved because it was found to cause cancer in hamsters. It was only for COVID under the cloak of EUA they could get approval because those studies were not needed under EUA less stringent guidelines.
Basically Big Pharma is using EUA legislation to rapidly approve failed drugs they couldn’t approve before.
You don’t need anything for COVID but rest* and fluids
* unless you have a fever of 100F or above moderate exercise actually sees one recover faster. People who rest take longer to recover.

It will take another RCT.
If one is done it won’t be soon enough to spare millions of people of taking a drug that will cause them to rebound when they didn’t need this drug at all.
People with rebound report their symptoms to be worse the 2nd time! This should be more of a scandal
