I"M finding the information about metformin quite interesting inasmuch as that's a drug I've been taking long-term. Big Al

Thanks for that, WTG. If I ever get Covid, sign me up for Paxlovid…and Metformin.

I got Paxlovid, but after reading up on the side effects and the fact that everyone I knew who took it had a resurgence of COVID as soon as the Pax ran out, I decided not to take it. It was a very mild case anyway. The rebound factor continues to be 100% of everyone I know who took it. There are a couple studies out that George shared. One that proves ivermectin is of no use, and another that shows famotidine is. https://jamanetwork.com/journa.../fullarticle/2801827 https://www.northwell.edu/news...on-covid-19-symptoms

I don't know a lot of people who've used it, but those that did use it have said the same. Has anyone read about how relevant the paxlovid rebound is in terms of protection against long covid? IOW, could it be the case that paxlovid is still worth taking, despite the rebound?

The rebound factor is less than 100%, if you add Mary Anna and me to the list. We both took Paxlovid and neither of us rebounded. | |||

OK, 90% then. Glad it didn't happen to either of you. How were the side effects?

Mary Anna remembers a bad taste in her mouth. I don’t remember any side effects at all. | |||
