Does Pfizermectin have similar antiviral properties as Ivermectin?
Has anyone heard of any evidence, or hypothesis behind any planned research, to indicate when initial vaccines start to lose efficacy for preventing infection?
Lol. I suppose it's entirely possible; I don't have time to listen to the silly video even at 2x speed to figure out what he's yammering on about. But in the end it's results that matter, and clearly Paxlovid works a LOT better than ivermectin. Hopefully those results hold up in the real world - clinical trials are kind of a best case for this sort of medication, where it must be used immediately to get the benefit.
As has been pointed out, ivermectin is probably pretty helpful in area where parasitic disease is common. Knocking out the parasites probably helps the body to recover from COVID, at the margins. I'd expect the effect to be very small though. Which it is (there appears to be no verifiable beneficial effect from ivermectin in studies to date). So unless you have parasites it probably makes no sense to take ivermectin. Take Paxlovid when it's available assuming there are no relevant drug interactions. This is not medical advice.
It's best to just not get COVID. Get a booster! Also not medical advice.
Ivermectin is a veterinary de-wormer. It is NOT for use in humans.
Ivermectin is a veterinary de-wormer. It is NOT for use in humans. Please do not treat yourself with veterinary medicine. If you have worms or other parasites, see a doctor for a medicine appropriate for use in humans.
Paxlovid is not a de-wormer. It is for the treatment of covid in humans.
Ivermectin is an antiparasitic drug and is used in humans.
Yes, I agree that these things can feed into the anti-vaxx stance.'It's unacceptable': Anger after Sutter Health gives wrong amount of COVID vaccine to children It happened at the Sutter Urgent Care facility in Antioch.
This is the kind of incompetence that feeds into the anti-vaxx delusions. Children given the adult dosage of COVID vaccine.

I forgot about doing anything special to prepare for the booster dose. Whoops. Anyway, I got it on Saturday afternoon (~2:45 pm).This is what I hope to do, but one friend said the Moderna booster knocked him out for 5 days. I am going to boost vitamins and hydration 2 days in advance (counting on at least the placebo effect, I know science not strongly behind that). How was your experience if I may ask? And any suggestions?
The video you linked is about "evaluating" the fact-checkers of Facebook relating to his earlier video which was the main one comparing the Pfizer covid-drug to Ivermectin. The point of the linked video is a good one although completely irrelevant to Covid, it just points out that facebook employs a bunch of journalists with no science background to "fact-check" claims of scientists -- and of course they make a bunch of blunders.Does Pfizermectin have similar antiviral properties as Ivermectin?
Got my Moderna booster yesterday afternoon - started feeling achy late evening. Felt slightly feverish through the night, so far through this morning so far just achy all over. It should pass by tomorrow!I got a Moderna booster last week after 2x Pfizer/BioNTech in April.
Injection site/arm/shoulder hurt for ~2 days.
Was tired the day after, and a minor headache. That's all.
Got the booster yesterday. Easy walk-in instead of the long wait.I can't easily get a booster appointment now - 2 to 3 weeks wait time.
ps : Will have to look for walk-in.
