I agree with the efficacy of the treatments. Zelenko's peer-reviewed study showed about 90% efficacy. Larger later studies showed very good efficacy: "As a result, our early ambulatory treatment regimen was associated with estimated 87.6% and 74.9% reductions in hospitalization and death respectively, p<0.0001." https://d197for5662m48.cloudfront.net/documents/publicationstatus/55764/preprint_pdf/a34785489fae8e6f5ddc8863141eb698.pdf

While your "95%" is an overstatement, the big study still shows that the deaths from COVID would drop from 1% of identified cases to 0.25% of identified cases. That would also match up with roughly 0.25% mortality in all cases, both identified and the undetected cases which are about 3-4 times higher. That makes it maybe twice as deadly as a very bad flu overall. In perspective that's not something we should shut down the economy over incliuding shutting down hospitals causing many needless deaths.

As for treament making vaccines unnecessary? There's not enough information to know right now. The efficacy of vaccines is very good: 535 COVID deaths versus at least 50,000 in the comparable unvaccinated population, comparing over the past few months. Keep in mind some of those 50,000 got the good treatments and died anyway. But even if none of the 50,000 got the good treatments and had been given the good treatment, the number who died would still be 12,500

But as Qiviut's 3 hour video points out, we are still in phase 3 and we have exempted the manufacturers from collecting phase 3 safety information.

Lets both agree that most vaccines are worthwhile. I can not agree hwoever what we were being jabbed with "was a vaccine". Just one more reason I think we as a population had a better shot at avoiding covid and its bad effects with oxy and drugs readily available and proven for years rather than the jab with a DNA changing drug pushed into our arms. It made no sense to me.It never was classified as a vaccine. Its also a mistake to ignore herd immunity as well.
