FDA Investigating Reports of COVID Relapses Following Use of Pfizer’s Pill
Epoch Times ^ | 5-4-22, update 5-6-22 | Zachary Stieber

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is investigating reports of relapses among people who took Pfizer’s COVID-19 pill.

The FDA “is evaluating the reports of viral load rebound after completing paxlovid treatment and will share recommendations if appropriate,” an agency spokesperson told The Epoch Times in an email.

In a recent preprint case report, Veterans Affairs researchers reported that a 71-year-old male who took the pill, also known as nirmatrelvir, experienced a “rapid and progressive reduction” in the viral load of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19.

But four days after completing the treatment course, there was a “surprising rebound of viral load and symptoms,” they reported.

You forgot to add that the CEO should be arrested and thrown in prison, along with the other co-conspirators in this scam.

Isn’t it interesting that, for most people, the good ol’ human immune system and a few God-given vitamins and minerals are more effective against this virus than all of their crappy vaxxes and drugs?

The vaccines cannot keep you from infection. They cannot keep you from transmitting. They cannot prevent hospitalization and they cannot prevent death.

There are risks of side effects and death well above any vaccine in history.

The highest case rates are in populations with the highest vaccination rates.

But let’s blame their failure on people who don’t use it. I’ll take my chances with prophylaxis and early treatment protocols.

If this wasn’t such sad sorry scary state of affairs in this country right now, and in world, this would make me burst out laughing. But sad truth is they continually gaslight and threaten those of us that know the truth.

Surprisingly you say... Aren’t they always surprised when they get the outcome they want?

In short ADE means

Antibody-dependent Enhancement

Think of it like your immune system is locked to look for a single virus (the original Wuhan strain) but a totally different one gets you.

The explanation is simplified but conveys the idea. What seems to be happening looks to be OAS or Original Antigenic Sin.

Think of it like your immune system is locked to look for a single virus but a variation of the virus that by passes your immune system gets you. The explanation is simplified but conveys the idea.

Someone tested positive at my daughter’s workplace last week. The owner had to shut down her business and all employees had to be tested. My daughter was told to take a home test. She took the test and it came back negative. They told her she had to get tested again at Walgreens because the test was negative. If the home test was positive she wouldn’t need to be tested again. So now we are waiting for last test results which should come tomorrow.

Sounds like TPTB at the workplace are aiming for zero COVID.

Delusional.

It may not have had anything to do with the pill. A link to the paper...

Rapid Relapse of Symptomatic SARS-CoV-2 Infection Following Early Suppression with Nirmatrelvir/Ritonavir

From the paper...

...Initiation of NM/R treatment on Day 0 in a 71-year-old vaccinated and boosted male...

Bold is mine.
