So will antivaxxers take the Covid pill?

In world first, Britain approves Merck’s COVID-19 pill

London: Britain on Thursday became the first country in the world to approve a potentially game-changing COVID-19 antiviral pill jointly developed by Merck and Ridgeback Biotherapeutics, in a boost to the fight against the pandemic.

The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency recommended the drug, molnupiravir, be used as soon as possible following a positive COVID-19 test and within five days of the onset of symptoms.

Britain became the first country in the world to approve the potentially game-changing COVID-19 antiviral pill jointly developed by Merck and Ridgeback Biotherapeutics, which is believed to reduce the risk of death by half.

This is the first oral antiviral treatment for COVID-19 to get approved, with the green light coming ahead of potential US regulatory clearance. US advisers will meet this month to vote on whether molnupiravir should be authorised.

The drug, to be branded Lagevrio in Britain, has been closely watched since data last month showed it could halve the chances of dying or being hospitalised for those most at risk of developing severe COVID-19 when given early in the illness.

The British government and the country’s National Health Service will confirm how the treatment will be deployed to patients in due course.

Last month, Britain agreed a deal with Merck to secure 480,000 courses of molnupiravir.

In a separate statement, Merck said it was expecting to produce 10 million courses of the treatment by the end of this year, with at least 20 million set to be manufactured in 2022.

The US-based drugmaker’s shares were up 2.1 per cent at $90.54 before the market open.

Gosh, you’re so sciencey.

 

Most unscientific word ever. The irony is that it has the word science in it, loL!

 

Somebody's gonna say its poison.

 

Because those dumbasses colored it red. Didn't they ever watch the Matrix? Scientists. Total bookworm nerds with no sense of current events. Even though those current events are over 20 years old now.

 

This is sad but true. I wish it wasn't.
I hope this song helps.

 

Do you think God would take the pill? Haha! Just curious. This thread is very interesting.

 

The only correct response to the challenge.

 

In the 21-22 years the movie/concept has been around, I never thought of that. What if you take both pills at once? Mind blown. I like your 4D thinking there.

 

This sciencey makes me thinky, OK then, I lived to see the answer to that question.
