Possible new drug to treat Covid

[denso13]

Yet even I have been looking up for these past 18mths, exactly what "gain of function" means.

Seems they failed miserably....

This isn't even a pimple on the arse of a good flu epidemic.

Why label anyone who questions anything medicinal as an 'antivaxxer', especially if not properly tested?

As far as I know that term only refers to anyone refusing to have a jab of any kind...

It is of course a term often used erroneously by those too dumb to realise the concept of choice!

But since this is not a jab, it is still a drug hastily developed...

Ever heard of Thalidomide?

What test(s) would you want it to go through before you had it?

Obviously not the usual ones, because the vaccines went through those.....

Sure pharmas are making money from Covid, but that’s opportunism, not some massive conspiracy

Ah, so you're happy to be exploited then!

Ellal must be screaming it in his sleep.

Au contraire...

Quite the opposite...

Because I'm not a scardy cat, unlike those who are happy to have anything injected into their bodies without question!

Went to the cinema over the weekend. Totally packed and barely a mask in sight...

Lovely jubbly

[ellal]

Full independent tests on all control groups...

Can you tell us why did a government advisor say that parents were being reasonable to wait to have their kids jabbed?

Oh that's right - it hasn't been tested on that group yet!

I feel so exploited, being given, for free, a vaccine that has already possibly saved my life, and the life of my wife. How will I cope?

'Pharmas' have always made money from medicine, they are businesses, after all. If they weren't making money they'd go out of business, and there would be no medicine. That would be a bad thing.

How do you reckon you've been 'given it for free'?

And 'possibly' saved your lives? Not exactly scientific thinking is it!

But you do realise that you and everyone else is picking up the tab whilst the big pharma companies are making a fortune, don't you?

I guess you still believe in the tooth fairy and unicorns!

Including you, your jab dodging family and all the other cowards out there. Cheers!

Indeed, we will be paying for those running scared and being human guinea pigs...

But I guess that's a price worth paying when the long term effects aren't known yet and you're willing to be experimented on through your fear.
Nice one!

Oh, and should those effects not be that wonderful don't go moaning to anyone!

The NHS does not have the resources to make medicine, so the alternative is to have nothing.

Yes, I understand the concept of taxation and funding healthcare. To quote the NHS - FREE at the point of use. Many people do not pay tax but are still able to get the vaccine for FREE.

My wife had covid, as did my son, and I did not catch it. That is a win as far as I am concerned. People younger than me have died from it.

"tooth fairy and unicorns" - that is some leap you just made.

I bet you believe in aliens and ghosts!

We'll, it has.

BigPharma make far more money from medicines than they do for vaccines.

I am pretty sure I shared those test results with Ellal the last time he claimed it had not been tested on children.

Antivaxxers just don't seem to ever read any of the research that goes against their "thinking". Funny that.

Ellal often brags about the ability of individual thinking. I can only assume that individual thinking excludes looking at official scientific data or actually talking to its two so-called 'doctor' sons.
