Looks like the drug companies are going to get their big payday.
Your insurance provider will be charged a hefty amount or your out of pocket cost for a 5 day supply will be $700.00.

The era of anti-Covid pills begins

I thought it would be sooner, but I knew it was coming. To big of a Payday for Big Pharma to ignore, your Health and Bank Account means Nothing To them.

US pharma giants Merck and Pfizer have announced encouraging results for oral drugs, while an anti-depressant has also shown promise in what could open up a new chapter in the fight against the pandemic.
What are these treatments ?
They are pills taken orally as soon as the first symptoms of Covid-19 appear, to avoid serious forms of the illness, and therefore hospitalisation.
This form of treatment has been sought since the start of the global health crisis.

After months of research, Merck and Pfizer say they have reached that elusive goal.

What was their Goal Exactly? Curing the the Sheeple or Making a Bog Profit?

Merck and Pfizer's treatments, which so far have not shown many side effects, would entail taking around 10 doses over five days.

What are the Side Effects? They didn't say! 

US and EU health authorities are also urgently reviewing the drug.


The European Medicines Agency promised on Thursday to "accelerate" proceedings, without giving a firm date.

Several countries have already ordered stocks of molnupiravir, such as the United States, with 1.7 million courses of the drug.

The US order gives an idea of the steep price of the drug.

It comes to $1.2 billion, which equates to around $700 for a five-day course.

As for Pfizer, while it has not outlined a price for paxlovid, it has promised it will be "affordable" and subject to a tiered pricing approach based on the income level of countries.

So, if I understand this correctly, a 5 day dose is $700. in the US, but you need to take this for 10 day as mentioned above, that is $1400. 
But it would appear if you live in a 3rd. world country (give the Democrats another 2 months and we'll be as poor as a 3rd. world country) it is Cheaper!
What do I have to say about this????? Cover Your Eyes, I will Offend YOU!
