The side effect is inflammation of the testicles. Which is certainly more concerning to the women, who didn’t have them previous to starting the drug.

Anyone who has suffered the bad side effects from statins will steer clear of this one.

The drug has to be injected. I wouldn’t trust the medical industry ghouls to give me an injection, at this point. I’d rather take my chances with “”harmful cholesterol””.

At least 20% of the total cholesterol in your body is in the brain. If your brain does not have enough cholesterol, it is not good. Whatever this new development is, be careful.

I don’t think so. Not me. Besides just one dose a week of high potency statins like rosuvastatin or atorvastatin can be be very effective

I’m skeptical. Been reading a lot of convincing data and info about how cholesterol levels have been gamed by the healthcare industry. For example, in the not too distant past a cholesterol level above 300 was considered okay. That number has now been ratcheted down to under 150. Of course since then the use of statins has exploded.

Moreover, some say cholesterol has gotten an undue bad rap and that cholesterol is actually good. It feeds the brain and actually heals the blood vessels. In fact, too little cholesterol can cause inflammation and can prevent the repair of blood vessels.

So yeah, I’ll let my neighbor try this new miracle mRNA drug and report back to me.

Lepodisiran is a Long-Duration Small Interfering RNA Targeting Lipoprotein(a); and siRNA, or small interfering RNA, are short, double-stranded RNA molecules that induce gene silencing by targeting specific mRNA sequences, thus preventing protein production ...

SO, yet ANOTHER gene therapy drug! ... AND Lepodisiran reduced mean serum concentrations of lipoprotein(a) from 60 to 180 days after administration ... SO this particular gene therapy stuff says in the body A VERY LONG TIME! ... So God help someone if they have a bad reaction after this stuff is injected ...

Alzheimer’s could be caused by not enough cholesterol in the brain. This drug may prove that true in a few years.

Cholesterol is vital for our body. People with higher cholesterol live LONGER than people with lower cholesterol. So the guy who says that cholesterol/LDL ‘is a major source of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality’ is a quack and should not be trusted even as dogwatcher, let alone as prescriber of a ‘miracle’ drug.

Numerous scientific studies have proven there is no link between cholesterol levels and heart attacks and strokes.

Statins are bad for you and your liver. This drug blocks your bodies natural mRNA from creating so called bad cholesterol...minor issue since the fake mRNA from the jab creates clots for you.

I’ll pass on this drug like all others.

blocks the body's natural mRNA from creating the harmful cholesterol ...

Where, exactly, does a person's body create mRNA, that was developed in a laboratory?
