Recipients of Biden-touted Paxlovid report Covid symptoms returning and even testing positive for the virus again after completing course of the drug

Some recipients of Paxlovid, an antiviral pill developed by Pfizer, are reporting Covid symptoms returning after finishing their course of the drug


Paxlovid has been deemed one of the gold standard Covid treatments in the U.S., even being touted by President Joe Biden at his State of the Union address this year.

Some of those who used the drug to treat the virus are reporting an interesting phenomena, though.

The drug, developed by Pfizer, is believed to be highly effective at preventing hospitalization or death in a person that has already been infected with the virus, but some who had their symptoms initially clear up after using the drug are reporting feeling symptoms again later on.

There are multiple reports that a people will also start testing positive for Covid once again after the five day treatment period concludes.

Experts are not sure why this is occurring, or what could be causing a person that is seemingly fine to later start feeling sick against from the same infection.

We had three cases in the house with the same pattern,' John Donoghue, 71, told the Boston Globe.

'The symptoms the second time were milder ... in some ways, we feel that Paxlovid did its job. It took away the extreme symptoms of the first round and reduced them very quickly in all three cases.'

“ with the virus being able to return after the drug suppressing it cleared from a person’s system”

Almost sounds as if it’s an immune system or immunoresponse suppressor. What is the body doing with, or to, the virus or any invader before the drug clears? These “approved” cures seem to mess with immune systems to produce a short term appearance of health but they really seem to be creating long term problems.

I’m thinking the same thing. Those with compromised immune systems will not develop a strong natural immunity after being infected with COVID. They will suffer the effects of the virus as if they were completely cured. With some, they never fully recover with the virus fighting them for a long time. A doctor should detect one with a compromised immune system. Sometimes it’s a matter of getting off the booze. Many don’t want to do that. Likewise for promiscuous homosexual sex and Marijuana use.

The testing is crap.

He might or might not have had the coof either time.

The vaaxes, however, may very well be doing a number on his immune system.
