There is a pandemic and the CDC has an agenda?
I'm shocked! Outraged! Pissed both on and off!

I can no longer follow you. I wish you'd stay with the subject.But… Im commenting on what interests me. Sorry if that doesn't meet your satisfaction!
Yes!
Thats right!
Tell me this person never got out of the eighth grade.

You've made no point at all. Looks like you're just throwing a fit...i was straight on topic and nailed my point. The point though, was not meant for you or anyone else. The person it was meant for, got it. Even if he didn't get it.
But thanks for aiding in proving my point for someone else.
when people don't address the full post and skip aNd hop and dismiss certain portions of a post based on thier “interests” it can get confusing and ends up in a bunch of back and forth…
but when some people cant actually acknowledge things instead of dismissing them and just looking for the “gotcha” opportunity, its clear to me some people don't want a discussion. They just want to focus on things that make them look correct, because its “interesting”.
Why? Because some people think they never do or say anything inaccurate. Afraid of admiting someone else has a good point is soo hard for some…and to those people i mess with.
What you aRe reading is me pushing the behavior right back where it came from. Been doing it a while now to some people who just aren't able to see that I'm mocking their behavior as they refuse to admit they have done the same.
Its amazing in here how some think they can do no wrong…

Few things more irritating than someone telling another "you think X". You know what impression another person makes on you. Not what they think.

Yep. After 20 or 30 posts of somebody throwing a fit I chime in to call it out... Shocking development!right on cue…
Have to agree with him. We see way too many “man deats” in this land of the free.
I guess we are all a bit masochistic in that way.This place is my entertainment..
I can't get past the pay wall to read the article.

Cheap antidepressant cuts risk of Covid hospitalisation, study finds
A cheap antidepressant reduces the risk of hospitalisation in Covid-19 outpatients that are at higher risk of severe disease, a large study has found.
Researchers in a peer-reviewed study published in The Lancet Global Health found that fluvoxamine, which is used to treat depression and obsessive-compulsive disorders, reduced the need for retention in a Covid emergency setting or transfer to another hospital.
It is the largest randomised trial to date to assess the effectiveness of the drug in Covid outpatients, and follows earlier promising evidence.
“Identifying inexpensive, widely available, and effective therapies against Covid-19 is . . . of great importance, and repurposing existing medications that are widely available and have well-understood safety profiles is of particular interest,” said Dr Edward Mills of McMaster University in Canada, co-principal investigator on the trial.
“Recent vaccination developments and campaigns have proved to be effective and important in reducing the number of new symptomatic cases, hospitalisations, and deaths due to Covid-19. However, Covid-19 still poses a risk to individuals in countries with low resources and limited access to vaccinations,” he said.
Of the 741 patients in Brazil who received 100mg of the drug twice a day, 79 required an extended stay in an emergency setting or hospitalisation, compared with 119 out of 756 who were given a placebo.
Penny Ward, a visiting professor in pharmaceutical medicine at King’s College London, said the results were “promising”, especially given the price and availability of the product.
However, she said the study had limitations, particularly concerning the impact on more severe outcomes. The level of protection afforded in breakthrough cases was uncertain because vaccinated patients were excluded from the trial, she added.
Coronavirus pill: Merck forges a new hammer to crack pandemic Premium
It is also unclear whether the drug has benefit for broader populations, including those without risk factors, said experts who were not involved in the study.
Fluvoxamine has a list price of about £17 in the UK, according to British National Formulary figures.
While the number of treatments available for Covid has increased since the pandemic emerged, most are expensive or difficult to make and administer, putting them beyond the reach of people in many parts of the world.
A number of repurposed drugs, including ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine, were initially believed to confer benefit but failed in rigorous trials. Other repurposed agents, such as Gilead Sciences’ intravenously administered antiviral remdesivir, offer limited benefit in the face of high prices. Dexamethasone, a steroid, is cheap and widely available but given later in the course of the disease.
Molnupiravir, an oral drug made by Merck which the company is making widely available through royalty-free licensing deals, has been hailed as a groundbreaking antiviral treatment since it is given orally and is easy to make.
I see that you have money to burn. I learned my lesson and got rid of the damn thing. Burning money at the casino is more fun.
yeah but antidepressants seriously change your brain and body. If anyone takes that but refuses the vaccine, LOL

Vacations and man deats.
I've only suffered from one bout of lasting depression and it made me understand how people could turn to antidepressants. It's completely debilitating. I'm glad I stuck it out and came out the other side au natural though. I've heard that they can really alter things.yeah but antidepressants seriously change your brain and body. If anyone takes that but refuses the vaccine, LOL
Yeah, your friends are looking forward to it even more! See which one's willing to help you with winterizing the boat first before you take them out boating.![]()
