The biggest COVID headline today is Merck’s announcement that it is seeking FDA approval (emergency use authorization) for its antiviral therapeutic molnupiravir, after clinical trial results showed the medication is as an highly effective treatment for COVID-19, the disease caused by SARS-CoV-2 infection.
This is about my month long ordeal with shingles. Make of it what you will. When the rash appeared and it was correctly diagnosed, I was given Valacyclovir. It is the first antiviral I've taken. It made me so nauseous that I couldn't eat. I couldn't continue taking them. And it really didn't seem to be doing much. I started ivermectin/HCQ in the doses recommended for an active Covid case, plus zinc and magnesium. I have no problems tolerating it and it seems to quiet the nerves. I would like to see real tests for these drugs, for some of the off label uses.
They gave me Elavil to try, to let me sleep. I made the mistake of reading the info on it. I don't think I need something that can lead to suicidial thoughts! I've been dealing with it for a month and think I will keep doing what I'm doing. It really is awful
I’m glad Ivermectin and HCQ provided some relief. Prior to COVID both medications were actively researched for their potential antiviral properties, and it was only during the COVID Pandemic Panic that the narrative was rewritten—in true Orwellian fashion—to deny that the medications were ever intended for human usage.
While the totality of research evidence suggests that HCQ and Ivermectin are far from a magic bullet, they still provide statistically significant levels of relief against COVID symptoms. At a time when the narrative was promoting the idea that hospital Emergency Rooms and ICUs were being overwhelmed, if Ivermectin and HCQ achieved even a 10% reduction in severe COVID cases, that would have alleviated every claimed.
With Ivermectin and HCQ being far cheaper than the mRNA inoculations, using them more widely would have done wonders to reduce the taxpayer expense of coping with the Pandemic Panic.

I’ve had shingles. Not a fun experience.

Yes, far cheaper. Pharmaceutical companies can't get wealthier using those drugs. Better a much more expensive and potentially deadlier vaccine...
