Good news on the covid front. Pfizer now have a pill that will reduce hospitalisation and death by 90%. That is a pill for when you have caught covid not a vaccine.

I've heard of at least three drugs that apparently do similar . But it's obviously the druglord with the fattest brown envelope that gets the approval.

Anecdotal evidence doesn't count.

There are and they'll probably all get approval. MHRA approved the Merck antiviral Molnupiravir.

Did anyone here get the flu jab and a covid jab/booster at the same time? or does there need to be a bit of time between the 2 different jabs?

My daughter is a doctor and she got both together. My sister-in-law is a nurse and she got both together. I think the general public have been getting them separately.

so if this  pill works then is there any need to  push the vaccine as hard then  people may take the  pill but not the vaccine but the real crazies  will say the pills are part a secret agenda too.

Some people need pills alright.

Because they are €600 a course. And would be wasted on the 99% of the population that do not have Covid right now. Youd essentially be wasting €3 billion.

I'd be getting them separate just wondering should I leave a day or 2 or maybe even a week between getting the flu jab and the covid jab.
