Pfizer’s antiviral pills called Paxlovid reduced the risk of getting hospitalized, dying or developing 10 long-term health conditions in the six months after a COVID-19 infection.

from COVID ). To assess the drug’s longer-term effects, Al-Aly and colleagues examined medical records from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs’ health care system. The researchers found more than 280,000 patients who had a positive COVID test in 2022 and at least one risk factor for developing severe illness. Of those people, nearly 36,000 got Paxlovid within five days of their positive test result.

Some researchers dispute whether the study fully captures what long COVID is. The condition is notoriously For instance, many people with long COVID experience post-exertional malaise, or extreme tiredness after exercise, says Monica Verduzco-Gutierrez, director of the post-COVID recovery clinic at the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio. But there isn’t a medical code for that condition, she says, “so it’s hard to pull out of a medical record review.”

Lmao, what a headline. Que dramatic😂

An honest question. Does Science news get paid for the incessant news bulletins on the efficacy of Pfizer products?

Only side affect is dying from unknown causes.

Genocide in a pill how convenient

😂🤣😆

“Trust the science” you know, the science that the USA government used by Pfizer execs literally appointed into government positions, and do so without questioning the science. Is not how “science works” I’m reporting you for malign m/misinformation. Reported.

I know too many people who took Paxlovid and got sick again with Covid19 after taking it.

🤣🤣🤣🤣

Why is it that I don't believe anything that originates from Pfizer anymore?

Think I'll just eat right

Lol

Key ingredient: ivermectin

Pfuck Pfizer

🖕

So does Ivermectin. And it doesn't have the side affects.

Not sure who is gonna believe this. Especially after the governments have successfully programmed doubt and fear into every pharmaceutical out there. I sure as hell wont attempt it!! The lengths people will go to. Absolute idiocy!!

Zinc + Ivermectin works better.

Lol...they always testing some new drug on vets.

please...... make a M&M'S version of PAXLOVID!

what risk does it decrease?

Wasn't the phizer Vax supposed to do that ? Science is a joke now. You are destroying your own reputation.

Hard pass

Are they ivermectin caplets with a different “proprietary” stamp? Hahahah

Does anyone really believe this? Why would you take an anti viral medication if you have been vaccinated ?

Lol, NFW I am taking that.

Stop trying.

Nope

Isn't LONG Covid the result of the vaxx shots.

id rather eat horse paste.🤣🤣🤣

Where are the long term saftey studies?

😭

So can balance of rest, sunshine, light exercise and the right herbs and spices. JUST SAY NO TO BIG PHARMA POISON

Not having vaccines and boosters prevents so called long covid too 🖕

Nobody believes Pfizer or their studies anymore

Big Pharma is so distrustful at this moment in time, and you tweet this…people are more awake to the fact that Covid was not a serious virus ..maybe this is a joke

I wouldn't trust any drug that claims to help with flus and such. Just tell people to eat better, get more sunshine and excercise. Oh wait that doesn't make them money though....

Here's a drug that fixes the mistake you took. Lol.

How much is paid to promote yet another phizer product? Have we seen the human trials for long & short term side effects and injury for this experimental drug ? Or are we done with safe medicine now? How do you call yourselves scientists?

$$$$$$$$$

Bull.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 taking paxlovid pretty much guarantees that you’ll get Covid again. Absolute garbage

Collude Overwhelm Vilify Infiltrate Denounce

Every single person that sees this bullshit paid advertisement (that’s all it is) should report it.

Considering their track record so far, I'll take a pass on this.

So does vitamin D , ivermectin and HCQ with Zinc.

and so does Ivermectin at pennies a dose...wonder why drs were prevented from prescribing it?

Can only be a Paid article

And look at the ingredients to it. 99% of those ingredients are things that we were called 'Conspiracy Theorists' for, when we said it would work.

Natural Immunity is pretty cool and it doesn’t have side effects

Doesn't Long Covid come from the vaccinations? Why reinforce the source? What specifically is in the pills?

That stuff made me feel 100 times worse than just having Covid.

Not taking the jab reduced getting and dying from long Covid

Science News shilling for Pfizer says all you need to know about Science News.

On another episode of Pfizer-paid propaganda...

Lol, eff Phizer

Uhuh, sure
