When the patient came back 10 days later, coughing repeatedly and complaining of headache, Davey Smith feared the worst.

Smith had prescribed the patient Pfizer’s new antiviral pill, Paxlovid, on the previous visit, after a COVID-19 test came back positive. A resurgence of symptoms probably meant one thing, especially after Smith tested the patient and got another positive.

“I was pretty sure it was resistance,” said Smith, an infectious disease physician at the University of California, San Diego. “I’m a virologist, I combat resistance all the time.”

There is nothing that’s “unclear”. What’s clear is that BIG PHARMA’s answers for Covid have been nothing but a scam. The best solution is to take IVERMECTIN protocol ‘within 48 hrs’ of symptoms for 5-6 days and ALL WILL BE FINE! PERIOD!

Ivermectin is the solution to this virus. It worked wonders for me, and very quickly.

But, the WHO and the WEF wanted a plague, so that Big Pharma could make fortunes off mostly worthless vaccines.

The criminal media carried their water for them.

“The criminal media carried their water for them.”

The media’s biggest source of income is Big Pharma ad campaigns.

I took zinc, vitamin d, vitamin c and garlic. And I was over Covid in a few days.

Yes, but it doesn’t work as well as Ivermectin.

The problem is that you don’t necessarily know you have it within that time. You can still test negative at the very beginning.

“is this the pill that’s a ripoff of ivermectin”

nope, Paxlovid is a combination of two two different protease inhibitors, nirmatrelvir and ritonavir, and is completely unrelated to ivermectin ...

Friends took Ivermectin days after contracting Covid-19. It and supplements got them through it.

Yes

Garlic aka “wild onions” are freakin’ awesome for short circuiting cold and flu aka “covid” symptoms

Addeed bonus: Garlic breath helps to ensure antisocial distancing. LOL.
