Everyone in my family had COVID in April. No one experienced a loss of smell or taste. We didn’t use anything like Zicam.
It depends on what the underlying biological mechanisms are for the product. mRNA vaccines are a brilliant development, but so far the track record in the lab has been a dismal failure and the human results are questionable.
If this product is based on known antiviral agents , then that’s an entirely different story.
Ya think?
Yes I read this last year too. Golly, I think even Trump mentioned it...(he was right again).
I also read basic saline nasal spray was effective to decrease viral load as well. https://www.researchsquare.com/article/rs-153598/v1
Blame government regulators (the Deep State) for this. It costs billions of dollars to "fast track" a drug. It must be demonstrated that the drugs are "safe and effective". When the drug costs pennies per pill, there is no manufacturer willing to pay this. Drugs like Ivermectin cost only pennies.
Ivermectin and others are provably safe. They've been used safely by millions of people. Are they effective against COVID-19? Thousands of case studies prove they are. But the government regulators won't accept these studies because they weren't "double blind" The drug administrators knew what they were prescribing. The bureaucrats don't accept this, so they won't approve the drugs. Blame Fauci and Biden and their ilk.
My wife and I both use is and have not gotten injected.
Two weeks ago we had low grade fever 100.4F, chills, loss of appitite, some pain in the sides of our lungs.This has taken two weeks to pass but we are left with low appetite, weight loss, no energy. So I guess it did not work for us.
I think I’d like to try this Enovid by Sanotise it sounds promising.
I don’t know. Looks like the control group declined almost as quickly—and had more than twice as many with fevers:

Perhaps ‘earlier’ results were unsuccessful but these vaccines have proven to be very successful. Over 160 million fully vaccinated. Very few issues. Hospitalizations and deaths have fallen steadily as the numbers of vaccinated have risen.
Sure, it’s new technology but do you want to forego all medical advances returning to the days of cowpox?
But look at the Conclusion of the study you showed ( copy and paste from the study results ):
_____________________________________
Treatment with NONS in this trial was found to be effective and safe in reducing the viral load in patients with mild, symptomatic COVID-19 infection.
Patients with recent disease onset were enrolled in the trial to evaluate the effect of early intervention with
NONS on SARS-CoV-2 RNA load. Patients in the NONS treatment arm demonstrated viral loads, as determined from PCR testing of nose and throat swab sampling, that were lower at days 2 and 4 by a factor of 16.2 than those on placebo, and symptom resolution was also found to be faster on NONS treatment than on placebo in
this study.
Lower SARS-CoV-2 RNA loads in patients with NONS may be
beneficial in the prevention of SARS-CoV-2 transmission.
It has been described that higher viral loads in patients with SARS-CoV-2 earlier than SARS-CoV may have contributed to greater difficulties in reducing the onward transmission.8 Furthermore, it has been
observed that the risk of symptomatic COVID-19 was associated with the SARS-CoV-2 RNA levels of contacts and incubation time was shortened in a dose-dependent manner.
Accelerated SARS-CoV-2 clearance with NONS may reduce symptom duration, decrease infectivity period, reduce hospital admissions, and lower disease severity. Consequently, this study could be used as supporting evidence for emergency use of NONS for patients with mild COVID-19 infection.

I’ll take the result of this study as a ‘YES’, it can be used as an effective weapon among others against Covid-19.
Probably not. I believe it contains nitrous oxide or NO
No vaccine is injected directly into you blood stream but thanks for playing

AS long as we don’t forgo all other advances against SARS-COV-2 (e.g. Ivermectin, SaNOtize, Monoclonal Antibodies, Budesonide, etc. ) and do not coerce people into using anyone of them, I’m good with vaccines.
I’ll take the safer, longer-available treatments over this, with just a single, small-sample study from the manufacturer.
To summarize what I said in Post #48 above — INFORMED CONSENT.
Give doctors the freedom to administer the therapies or prophylactics they see fit for their patients which includes informing the patients of the pros and cons, and let the patients decide for themselves what they deem appropriate. This is the ultimate pro-choice policy.
This is what THE LAND OF THE FREE AND THE HOME OF THE BRAVE ought to be like.
That’s fair. Of course, informed consent is the last thing we’ve seen in the Covid “vaccine” era.
Big question though ..... what about the mouth breathers? /s
We will see in a few years.
I’ve attended too many funerals of healthy people who died within days. And the lab results were abysmal.
Was it the Delta strain? I’ve been reading and hearing that it’s pretty much like a cold for most people.
I use Zicam for colds also and they really do nip it in the bud, also much less post nasal drip causing a sore throat.

That is both reasonable and realistic. My complaint in these threads are the misrepresentation of the dangers of the vaccines and the claims that the vaccines were developed to decimate the worlds population.
RE: My complaint in these threads are the misrepresentation of the dangers of the vaccines and the claims that the vaccines were developed to decimate the worlds population.
Let’s put it this way, SOME ( not all ) concerns about the current vaccines are justified. The fact that the FDA has not approved any of the current vaccines despite over hundreds of millions of dosages being administered gives us a hint as to why. Credentialed doctors like Dr. Peter McCullough ( who himself is not an anti-vaxxer ) has expressed concerns about the adverse effects caused by the vaccines. So, it is not unjustified to voice one’s concerns over the vaccines and to observe what type of people are probably not fit to take them.
The idea that vaccines were developed, funded and supported by men like Bill Gates to decimate the world’s population is nuts and there are some posters who believe this but I doubt if MOST FReepers actually believe this.
