Wonder if any of the advocates of China-style lockdowns in the West will ever admit they were wrong, now that even Beijing has? https://t.co/PiKIJxBIeA— Anya Parampil (@anyaparampil) May 28, 2023
It also poorly interacts with a bunch of other drugs. I know an older person who couldn't take it because it would have messed with their heart medication, and a younger one who couldn't take it because it would have messed with their asthma medication.

This. I have two friends that got COVID from the same event at the same time. They both tested positive and one of them got Paxlovid because they had instances of pneumothorax as a child. The other got orders to take tylenol and god bless.
There's also effective antivirals now. Paxlovid and such are vastly better than leaving someone on a ventilator for months and hoping for a miracle.
Not to disagree with you, but good luck getting Paxlovid. Most places reserve it for only the most seriously vulnerable, like those older than 68.
Thanks capitalism, making the drug super expensive, despite the massive amount of public money that went into it's development.
