I’m sick and came to the doctor to get tested for covid, strep, and flu, since those are going around my work. I asked the doctor if I could get paxlovid if the covid test was positive, and he goes “Oh I don’t think you’d need it”

Motherfucker almost everyone who catches covid should be fucking taking it wtf is wrong with you. Oh I’m young and otherwise healthy? Yeah and I’d like to fucking stay that way thank you very much, and I’ll take any reduction in the chance of becoming permanently disabled.

Also of the medical professionals I saw today, they were only wearing surgical masks, not N95s and I can’t comprehend it. Why in the hell would you go into the room of a likely covid case not wearing an N95 are you insane?

I’m so fucking sick of being the only person in this entire town that’s actually worried about catching this disease, even the fucking doctors don’t care anymore. I work in a research facility attached to a hospital and when I go to the food court and shit at best like 1/25 people are wearing masks. In a hospital.

Thank you Mr Joe Brandon for ending the pandemic, you’ve truly cemented your place among history’s greatest killers.

    I'm trying to decide if, when I eventually get it again, I should straight up tell the teleDoc that I will go from doctor to doctor until I get a scrip so they might as well give me one now, or if I should lie about my bmi instead.

      Got depression (and who doesn’t lol)? You’re high risk. Use a prescriber bot. When I had covid I used Dr. B. It will check for medical interactions.

      Gatekeeping paxlovid is completely nonsensical there’s gotta be mountains of surplus doses.

        I feel like Pfizer, would also hate the gatekeeping. I'm sure they want as much flying off the shelves for their profits.
