COVID reinfection rate with treatment Biden is taking is more than 40% – and not 2% as marketed: Paxlovid is thought to suppress immune response meaning body can’t fight off new infection

Via The Daily Mail

According to Pfizer, 40,000 Paxlovid prescriptions are being written every day

Joe Biden has been re-infected with COVID after taking an anti-viral drug that leaves patients running a 40 per cent risk of flare-up of the virus shortly afterwards.

Taking Paxlovid leaves COVID sufferers in danger of testing positive for the virus again very quickly after clearing their initial infection.

When Paxlovid came to market in December 2021, studies from Pfizer indicated that only 1-2 percent of patients who took the drug tested positive for Covid again shortly after finishing their dosage.

But other experts say the rapid reinfection rate is closer to 40 per cent, and that Paxlovid can cause this issue by suppressing patients’ immune systems too early, meaning their own bodies are unable to get a handle on COVID.

Dr. Jonathan Reiner, a prominent cardiologist and professor of medicine and surgery at George Washington University Hospital tweeted: ‘I think this was predictable.’

He continued: ‘The prior data suggesting ‘rebound’ Paxlovid positivity in the low single digits is outdates and with BA.5 is likely 20-40% or even higher.’

In a memo released by the White House, Dr. Kevin O’Connor said that the president will continue to isolate, just like he did when he first tested positive on July 21.

Dr. O’Connor also said that the president would not be prescribed Paxlovid again. The president’s doctor earlier noted that it was likely that the president was infected with the BA.5 variant.

In June, a Mayo Clinic study showed that five percent of adults who had taken the drug tested positive again for Covid within 30 days, according to the New York Times.

The majority of those who experienced rebound symptoms occur within two to eight days.

Some experts have said that the current treatment cycle of taking three pills twice a day for five days is too short a time period to clear Covid from the patient’s body.

The conclusion of the Mayo Clinic study was that extending the time period of the course of Paxlovid was unnecessary.

The authors of the study conceded in their findings that immunocompromised people were unrepresented in the study.

Also in June, the president’s chief medical advisor, Dr. Anthony Fauci, experienced rebound Covid-19. In his case, he did take a second round of Paxlovid.

Dr. Ashish K. Jha, the White House’s Covid-19 response coordinator, has denied that the Paxlovid rebound numbers are nearly 50 percent.

The doctor maintained that the actual percentage of reinfections is ‘in the single digits.’

Dr. Jha said: ‘When people have rebound, they don’t end up in the hospital. They don’t end up particularly sick.’

He added: ‘Paxlovid is working really well at preventing serious illness, rebound or no rebound, and that’s why he was offered it. And that’s why the president took it.’

Just this week, Pfizer, the pharmaceutical giant that makes Paxlovid, posted huge second-quarter sales growth with revenues around $27.7 billion.

That’s up from $18 billion that was reported in the second quarter of 2021.

The global sales of Paxlovid alone were $8.1 billion.

Around 40,000 Paxlovid prescriptions are being handed out on a daily basis, similar to the amount of oxycodone prescriptions that are filled every day.

Speaking to the Atlantic, Bob Wachter, the chair of medicine at the University of California San Francisco, said that deciding whether or not give Paxlovid to certain patients is a ‘massively complicated three-dimensional chess game.’

Wachter also said: ‘I can barely decide whether want it, and I do this for a living.’

While Dr. David Boulware of the University of Minnesota told the magazine that he wants Pfizer to release more in depth study data.

He said that the data released so far by Pfizer ‘suggest that there’s really minimal to no benefit, most likely, for the vast majority of people.’

The president first tested positive on July 21 and then tested negative on July 26.

Biden continued to test negative on the following Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. He made his first public address on Wednesday following his initial diagnosis the previous week.

What kind of moron does it take to believe anything the government and their lackey’s say? If you still believe their lies at this point, we’re better off without you.

That is the whole problem in a nutshell.

This is why the chances to turn our ship around are less likely by the day.

If the CDC, WHO, or anyone “official” is advocating anything as a Covid,
remedy, and you believe them, you are too far gone to helped. Just take it and
rid the world of you and your infinite gullible stupidity.

My doctor prescribed paxlovid to me. I hadn’t heard about it and I did some research. I did take one dose just to see what happened. The side effects were terrible. Cure was worse than disease. Threw it away. I got it for free btw. Our government is footing the bill on this drug. I wonder why. Beware.

Exactly, the same vaccine that Pedo Joe claimed to have been give early in 2020, yet somehow he ends up with covid 2 times now. Maybe someone close to him wants him gone.

If you take PaxlovePfed there’s a number of contraindicated drugs. And it’s only been released under a EUA. Because apparently Ivermectin doesn’t exist And because they both do the same thing, you can’t take Ivermectin and PaxlovePfed, which is probably the point.
PaxlovePfed is essentially Ivermectin with side effects

The wimpy bioweapon didn’t eliminate enough useless eaters on its first pass, so Fauxci and the big pharma geniuses decided to give it an encore. Assuming the victim had already partially destroyed their immune system with the “vaccine/booster” regimen, why not knock it down further and see if little “spikey” could then finish the job. Hence, Paxlovid. These bastards need to prosecuted and executed for their genocide scheme.

There is something ironic about Biden being reinfected after using a drug which was represented as being 20 times more effective than it actually was. I think we all know how he feels.

That is probably why they discontinued Remdesiver, high fatality rate and people were learning about that so they D/C’d that and went to this drug, see how long this one lasts before they bring out something else. Word has to get out like Remdesiver did.

Fake news!
Everyone wants our fearless Pedo leader back on the job.
Especially the puppeteers that are guiding him, although a Hillary style suicide, err, accidental death would be more manageable than a demented sniffing stooge. Camel Toe is looking better every day.

Oh no, say it ain’t so, “The Big Guy” can’t have Covid. I saw him on the news when he had the Covid vaccine early in 2020, it has to be something else maybe a combination of sniffing bad shampoo and hairspray. Just keep trusting your chief medical advisor, Dr. Anthony Fauci, he’ll get you back up and riding your bike again in no time !
