Members DramatistDreamer Posted October 3, 2021 Members Share Posted October 3, 2021 Also, the COVID pill is no preventative, it is a therapeutic measure, once someone has already become infected, much like monoclonal antibodies, but relatively less expensive by comparison. Like monoclonal antibodies, the clock is ticking to stop the virus from replicating throughout the cells in the body. The vaccines are, to date, the closest thing we have to a prophylactic measure. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Soaplovers Posted October 4, 2021 Members Share Posted October 4, 2021 I think the pill would work best for >65 year olds and the immunocompromised. However, I would also put some of the vaccinated in the lacking common sense field. Too consumed with fear...just as much as the unvaccinated. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted October 4, 2021 Members Share Posted October 4, 2021 The pill is only once someone is diagnosed with COVID-19. It is not for use otherwise. Think of Theraflu, that people take when they are feeling symptoms. It is also very expensive and will be in very short supply until production can be scaled up. It seems as if they may make it available in pharmacies in the future but it may start out as being a prescription only, especially if it's in short supply, but from what I have read and heard from doctors, it is not a preventative, it is for people who are experiencing symptoms of COVID-19. It won't work like a vaccine, which can be effective before infection. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members amybrickwallace Posted October 8, 2021 Members Share Posted October 8, 2021 Here's a brief history: https://www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/photos/2018/09/donald-trump-hollywood-walk-of-fame-star-vandalized-history Like @dragonflies said, all one really needs to get a star is lots of dough. Pitiful. I did an image search and here are some examples of recent vandalism (excepting the dog that supposedly relieved itself on it!): 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
