I agree with you except that I do t think chemo prophylaxis would do much to prevent this from becoming endemic. i think we will be living with it a king time but it won’t be the epidemic it has been over the last18 mos

I admit that the evidence for my hypothesis is not dispositive.

I’m running with my gut that Carvello’s prophylaxis treatment is likely somewhere in the ballpark of the efficacy that he reports. It’s only a few hundred people, and observational, but the effect appears to be so strong, among highly exposed people my bet (and it’s only a bet) is that the effect would be strong enough to stop the virus in its tracks in areas where it is still spreading rapidly.

I doubt that we’ll find out though.
