Exactly. They will approve a new high dollar UNPROVEN drug and ignore cheap alternatives. Tell me the “pandemic” isn’t being pushed by big pharma.

not as good as monoclonals but 50% death reduction is better than nothing for regions where they can’t get to monoclonals or are still without vaccine distribution

The FDA approved vaccine is not available in the USA. Bait and switch. The Pfizer vac here is still under an EUA.

Vaccines are different from Oral drugs, so I believe the answer is ‘No’.

the ANTICOV study in Africa is all about low cost proven drugs. It’s being run in 18 african nations. They’re trialing Nitazoxanide which is pretty cheap. Ivermectin is being widely phased out because of drug resistance.

molnupiravir was in development before 2020, as EID-2801. It works by injecting errors into the viral dna via “nucleoside analogs’, like remdisivir works but may overcome virus that is already remdisiver-resistant
April 2020

and in formal trials back in Jan 2021

and talked up in Mar 2021

But, but there needs to be 10 years of trials and studies……..

The FDA is planning on Emergency Use approval.

Two terrible things I’ve heard for months and months……

🤔
