Prevention is better than cure — but when it comes to COVID-19, what happens when people can't get the vaccine, don't want it or they're immunosuppressed and it fails to stop infection?
The hunt is on for a coronavirus treatment that can be taken as a pill soon after a confirmed positive, halting the disease in its tracks so that cases that might have been severe end up being nothing more than a bad cold.
Several companies are working on so-called oral antivirals, which would mimic what the drug Tamiflu does for influenza. "It's great that we have vaccine rollout that has been significant, but it certainly will not be taken by everybody in our population, and not everybody who takes the vaccine will have a full response to it," said David Hirschwerk, an infectious diseases physician at Northwell Health in New York.

You clearly have your opinions.
I am sorry they are mostly incorrect.
‘And yes ivermectin and HCQ are killing people because people erroneously believe that they are cures ...”
Are you serious ?!
You neglect the thousands, or tens, or hundreds of thousands killed by tyrant government and medical officials denying proven life saving treatment (which does NO harm) ?1?!
Ummm, yep
NYT Best-Selling Author: I Don’t Know of a Bigger Story in the World Right Now than Ivermectin
There are side effets to every drug....
HCQ given in high doses retinosa pigmentosum. There is the always present risk of allergy, and adverse effects. The point being is that you your universal declaration of no side effects, no harm is not founded. It is harmful to promote a drug based on efficacy that it has not shown. Were it a cure, there would be in places widely using it a stopping of the epidemic curve, not a bell shaped curve. Look at india. Despite the “widespread” ivermectin use it is apparent that the current wave has a symmetrical distribution. If Ivermectin were a “cure” the curve owuld look much different.
I am not taking umbrage that Iverectin may have some weakly positive properties, but cure it is not. Otherwise everyone on the planet would be on it, and CoVID would not exist
I am sorry you continue to utilize facts that are not in evidence.
Juan Chamie Discusses COVID in India and Mexico
The presentation left no doubt about the value of Ivermectin. The Chinese crud turns off and on like a faucet depending on if it's used in a population or not.
HCQ?
Hardly anyone except you (and criminals against humanity HerrDoktor FauxiGates, Scwhab, Tedros Adanom Greybeyesus, kapoS0r0s, et al) really believes that Ivermectin and HCQ are not efficacious. Claims to the contrary are just damned lies by those with an agenda, political and financial.
Why was the early evidence of HCQ efficacy so ruthlessly suppressed?
You ridiculously claim that Ivermectin and HCQ present significant risks in spite of multiple DECADES of safe usage. Yeah, and high doses of water can lead to death.
Idiotic.
Silver kills em all.
Colloidal silver.
Try this.
Google search. Then duck duck and others see what comes up
The feds have been lying about it for years. It works. It’s FREE. YOU DONT NEED A DOCTOR TO PERSCRIBE IT
That seems to work, too, as long as you use zinc.
I see you completely missed the point of my post and instead engage in alinsky twist the words from what was said, make accusations that are unfounded in an attempt to isolate and spreading lies of omission and commission.
It is not possible to have a candid and intelligent debate with someone is is unwilling to stop with talking points and examine the actual issues
To that end I wish you the best and by all means you are entitled to your opinions yet you confuse them as facts. Your opinions are incorrect.
Antivirals can be an option for viral illnesses like influenza and shingles if a patient is seen early enough.
Interesting that the option gets such short shrift when it comes to WuFlu.
Interesting that you retreat to basically ‘you’re engaging in Alinskyite tactics’.
I guess your “Ivermectin is not a cure” and “Ivermectin and HCQ are killing people” by some ridiculous indirect method, while totally ignoring the fact that the NOT vaccines you flack for are ACTUALLY directly killing people isn’t a deceptive distraction is it ?
Spreading lies of ommission and commission indeed.
I am not the one promoting a false nonreasearcg based narrative, you are. And the I know you are but what am I argument went out the door in about 2nd grade for most of us.
“I am not the one promoting a false nonreasearcg based narrative, “
Au contraire, that is exactly what you are doing ; promoting the narrative of HerrDoktorFauxiGates, WEF/NWO Schwab, Soros, WHO et al.
(btw, why won’t you acknowledge your paymasters??)
because I speak the truth and am not being paid by anyone for it. You are quite the good alinskyite
never trust the self proclaimed “medical professionals” posting their statistics and pushing the fauxcine on these threads...
there’s no way to prove who they really are...
As the great Ronaldus Magnus said: “There you go again.”
” because I speak the truth “
“Ivermectin is not a cure” No one has said otherwise, Ummm, maybe just a teeny tiny widdle lie by BIG red herring implication.
btw your ‘NOT vaccine’ vaccines are not a cure either.
“Ivermectin and HCQ kills.” A damned lie even you know .
(Oh, oops, I forgot there was that 1963 case where a man in Borneo took massive doses of Ivermectin and HCQ with the idea that it would protect him from lethal jellyfish and was subsequently painfully disabused of that belief) my bad I guess.
Your NOT vaccines actually do kill. which you ‘inadvertently’ neglect to acknowledge.
Seems your notion of “truth” is as erroneous as your definition of ‘NOT vaccines’ as vaccines.
