#1 Hardly a 'riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma', to borrow a phrase.

#2 Perchance are Invermectin and the pill that doctors dare not mention considered therapeutics?

#4 Feds Pause Shipments Of Two Monoclonal Antibody Treatments Not Effective Against Omicron Variant Of COVID-19. This article comes up with a new abbreviation - "Bamete" - I've never encountered in my own regular online reviews of the monoclonal antibodies. AFAICT "Bamete" refers to the combined monoclonal antibodies Bamlanivimab/etesevimab which are one of the few antibody sets given EUA by the FDA 11/2020, and which have been given nationwide for high risk outpatients with COVID-19.
The Texas Department of State Health Services (DSHS) said this week it’s been notified by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services that it’s pausing all shipments of two monoclonal antibody treatments: Regeneron and Bamete.

That’s because the state said recent studies show the two treatments have “significantly decreased efficacy” against the Omicron variant.


I can't find the stats, but Regeneron & "Bamete" have accounted for the vast majority of all anti-COVID-19 outpatient treatments given so far in the USA. The FDA nonsensically has withdrawn its two most common therapeutics because they have a decreased effect against Omicron -- not "no" effect, just a decreased effect.
Last week the FDA gave EUA for 2 new oral therapeutic agents, molnupiravir and Paxlovid® (nirmatrelvir tablets co-packaged with ritonavir tablets for oral use). Neither of these are yet available at pharmacies in my area, and zero announcements yet of when this may or will happen. The MSM can't even get the names straight yet, and they probably never will.
Dr. Siegel's statement is beyond irrelevant at this point.

#5 St. Fauci always concentrated on vaccines, never on therapeutics. The media and Democrats, but I repeat myself, had conniptions when Trump went off the vaccine train. The Biden administration is following the same Fauci playbook. Look no further than the Aids epidemic where he did the same thing.

#6 The drooler Candace Owens is screeching about Trump being pro-vaccine. Hey, if he isn't he'll just be accused of hoping the entire human race is destroyed.

Dumb bint.

#7 Of course President Trump is pro-vaccine. He organized the crash program that developed them, and was vaccinated as soon as he could. But he is also pro-treatment, although everything he mentioned as a possible area of exploration was subsequently shouted down by the NeverTrump crowd..

#8 Whenever a leftist says something whack, "it's just that individual talking." But whatever Owen or Alex Jones says is supposedly the core of how I think.

Bullscrit. Smelly bullscrit...
