The Cookout

Looks like we'll have another option to fight covid, and it'll be in pill form. This has been in the news for a while, but advisers from the FDA have endorsed the new covid medication. People will be able to get prescriptions for this medication soon I imagine.

Would you take it? Or are you going to just get the vaccine?

They are just trying to monetize this in any way possible. I just got a call today from Health Services asking if I was going to get the Booster I told them to never call again.

What if the pills are flat?

I do my best to not take any medication unless absolutely needed. Working in a clinic and seeing how many pills people are on these days is scary. All of them have side effects, especially with long-term use. I got my two shots. Now they are asking me to get another one. I sure hope the US stops this bull and doesn't let these mandates go through. I am fine with shots that have been around for decades. I have never trusted flu shots nor would I feel safe taking a flu pill.

The advisers also grappled with the rare risk that the drug's mechanism of triggering new mutations of the virus might lead to a new variant of concern from SARS-CoV-2, especially in immunocompromised patients who might harbor and spread error-riddled copies of the virus for weeks after the treatment ends or people who do not hew closely to prescriptions to take all five days of pills.

The US Govt is giving these people free reign to experiment on Americans. If this drug causes a mutation they will all sweep it under the rug and then come out with a treatment to make money off of. Such a scam.

Next strain is Ultron and then Thanos.

I'm gonna invest. anyone dumb enough to take this poison deserves what they get.

Nope.

You all see what these companies made from the vaccines? They want to make as much money as possible before the economy goes belly up. This isn't about health.

Pfizer got sued out the behind in 2009, the biggest lawsuit in history, for lying and bribery as well as covering up known side-effects. I am sure they changed their ways though!....

If a virus mutates, then the jab they had won't be enough. No amount of new vacs will suffice, as a virus continues mutating. If goofies keep getting vacced, those people will be receiving an indefinite number of jabs. They'll need more updates than windows software.

Like influenza, we have to lean how to live with this. Lining Pfizer’s pocket is not going to make it go away.

My perspective is a little different. I survived cancer. Part of my battle involved a stem cell transplant procedure in which my immune system was completely destroyed, my own stem cells that had been previously harvested were infused back into me to regenerate my immune system. I had to get all of my childhood shots again (I was born in 1960). The oncologist told me that I would need to get the flu shot annually from now on as well as any vaccines developed just in case...

I said all that to simply say, I didn't battle cancer for 2 yrs, and beat it just to be taken out by Covid or something there might be a vaccine or treatment for... BUT, that's me, I am not advocating people do what I do, or see my perspective...
