Enough said.

I’m convinced it was what killed my MIL.

remember president trump was treated with it, and he, at one time praised it.

https://www.science.org/content/article/heres-what-known-about-president-donald-trump-s-covid-19-treatment
On 2 October, the White House announced President Donald Trump received an experimental antibody treatment after a test revealed he’s infected with SARS-CoV-2. At the time, he reportedly had mild COVID-19 symptoms, including fever and congestion, and he was transferred to Walter Reed National Military Medical Center. Later, the president’s medical team confirmed he had started a course of remdesivir, an antiviral drug shown to modestly help hospitalized COVID-19 patients. Two days later, on 4 October, the team revealed Trump had been given a steroid normally reserved for severe COVID-19 cases, although his physician offered optimism about a quick recovery, even suggesting he might soon be discharged from Walter Reed.

As posted here many times before, I was hospitalized for COVID-19, and was treated with Remdizivir, Dexamethasone, and supplemental oxygen. I immediately felt better the day after treatment started, and I was discharged after four days, and fully recovered with no ill effects.

Granted my experience like Trump's is anecdotal, but I do believe Remdizivir helped us both.

They continually tried to force it on my wife when she was the hospital with Covid. She told them at least four times she didn’t want it. Once they tried to slip it in with some other meds they were giving her. After three days they stopped and the next day they through her out, though she probably needed a couple more days of oxygen therapy.

The hospital was charging over $3K per dose. I was barred from the facility for questioning their judgment.

My treatment and yours were exactly the same, with the same results and in the same amount of time.

However, I was left wondering if they ever looked at my history. I had stage III kidney disease already. I feel lucky to have survived at all.

“Later, the president’s medical team confirmed he had started a course of remdesivir, an antiviral drug shown to modestly help hospitalized COVID-19 patients.”
I believe your reference is suspect. When President Trump got out of the hospital, I remember that he praised Regeneron (monoclonal antibodies) for his recovery, not Remdesivir. But leave it to the “experts” to slip Remdesivir into a story.
https://www.cnbc.com/2020/12/16/covid-19-antibody-drug-used-to-treat-president-trump-isnt-getting-to-americans.html

Personal anecdote. I refused Remdesivir when I was admitted to the hospital suffering from acute respiratory failure from Covid pneumonia. I accepted the Dexamethasone and three liters of oxygen. Two days later, I was released to recover at home. The steroids are what is really needed to shut down the extreme immune response (cytokine storm) to the spike protein, which is itself toxic. Remdesivir is has a track record of causing liver damage and kidney failure.
Of course, for early onset symptoms, Ivermectin and HCQ are excellent choices for avoiding the cytokine storm. But then, the FDA would not be able to allow an emergency authorization of the Covid-19 vaccines or the Rem-Death-Is-Near. You got lucky, many others didn’t have such luck.

I had a friend they insisted on giving Remdesivir and she adamantly refused and asked for alternatives and the hospital refused any other treatment than 4 liters of oxygen. Her breathing was down to 75% and they would not discharge her or allow family to visit her. She made a video on her phone about the situation and blasted it to her family and friends. It was difficult to watch her writing on her arms, no remdesivir and gasping for air.

A friend saw the video and contacted an attorney and a state representatives wife and they asked my friend if she wanted out of this hospital and she said yes and they set things in motion to get her released. My friend with full blown covid had the hospital administrator and head nurse in her room early that morning begging her to let them treat her and not leave, she refused and the treatment by the staff increasingly became more and more hostile until she was released. She was released and placed under another doctors care at home, increased oxygen, some antibiotics, breathing treatments, steroids and huge doses of Ivermectin and within a week was feeling great.

That hospital was going to collect their government$ for putting yet another patient on Remdesivir and killing them. I have two more family friends they did this too and murdered—they knew. One doctor told the family usually they are dead within 7-10 days of getting Remdesivir and this old lady hung on in agony for a month. Another one had a Do Not Resituate and the daughter demanded they honor it but allowed the Remdesivir. The daughter was not allowed to see her mom and she essentially starved to death after 3 weeks in the hospital. The funeral director knew the woman and picked the body up and said she went from a normal sized woman to an emaciated wreck upon her death.

In October 2021 I was hospitalized with covid pnumonia. They gave me 5 doses of Remdesivir. In February of 2023, I was diagnosed with a kidney tumor. They had to remove my entire right kidney. I asked my cancer doctor about a connection with Remdesivir, but he wouldn’t comment. I asked him about how long he though that I had the tumor, based on how large it was. He said, “A little over a year.”

Sad what people had to go through to get out of the hospital once in.

My nephew had three young men die in beds around him. He kept asking for ivermectin and they refused to give it to him. He told his doctor if he was murdered as these three men, his wife was going to sue him for everything he owned and she would make sure he never treated anyone again. That's what it took for my nephew Will to be here today.

Notice how we have a doctor shortage and we're being pushed to have nurse practitioners now?

My father caught covid right after he finished chemo for lung cancer. They gave him Remdesivir while he was in the hospital. He made a complete turnaround after the first 24 hours. After that he went downhill fast. He died 3 days after receiving Remdesivir. I've talked to a few other people who had relatives who had similar experiences with the drug.

My wife was hospitalized with covid for five days back in 2019. They treated her with remdesivir and she came home with no issues. So far. I wound up in the ER and was treated with monoclonal antibodies and felt almost immediately better. Newport Hospital was pushing the vax pretty hard, which we both refused. Oddly enough, we never received a bill for any of this.
