Yesterday, the White house COVID czar surprisingly doubled down on Paxlovid as the silver bullet for COVID. I was curious because most impartial observers don’t believe the totality of evidence supports Paxlovid as some type of COVID-slayer. The problem is that Paxlovid showed great benefit in unvaccinated patients in preventing progression to severe disease, but much less benefit in vaccinated/prior infected individuals.
The best line is the bottom line: “So it doesn’t matter that most of the country has moved on from COVID, the politics ensure a shrinking but increasingly desperate group of intellectuals will deploy a “science” smokescreen to rationalize increasingly nonsensical policies.” With midterms coming up the party in power will pull out all the steps they can and the media will support them. There is no science, only cheerleaders like Dr Jha.
