Pay very special attention to the blue “Stop the Flu” section at the top of the web page.
Note the advice to “Ask your health care provider about a prescription antiviral”.
And yet God help you if try to get early treatment in NYS for CoupFlu.

A friend of ours (not in NY) came down with COVID (he is fully vaxed so at least his doc wasn’t screaming at him about that) and his PCP gave him the usual “ take Tylenol & if you have trouble breathing, go to the ER”.
This friend ‘confronted’ his doc and said that he annually gets a sinus infection and is prescribed antibiotics and steroids for that condition, could the doc not at least give him those prescriptions? The doc was hesitant, but finally did (I’m sure the diagnosis code used is for sinus infection) ... so at least the friend had 2 things to help with WuFlu. I also sent him links on early treatment protocols from FLCCC, etc. for which he’s thanked me a couple of times. Despite at least 2 comorbidities, he came through his WuFlu ok, thank goodness.
BTW, “take Tylenol” is very bad medical advice. Tylenol is well known to deplete glutathione which is critical for fighting C19 inflammation.
