'It's Murder': Remdesivir Victims Decry FDA's Shocking New Move

I am posting this in Technology because this is medical technology and I don't want this sober warning to get buried too fast and I also don't want to stick everything important.

Remdesivir may be the most despised drug in American history, earning the nickname Run Death Is Near for its lethal record during COVID. Experts claimed that it would stop COVID; instead, it stopped kidney function, then blasted the liver and other organs. Now this reviled destroyer of kidneys has been approved by the FDA for COVID treatment of kidney patients. Does anybody else feel as if the FDA is shoving its power in our faces and laughing at us?

I asked them what they thought of the FDA's decision to approve Remdesivir for people with severe renal impairment, including dialysis. "Morally, how can you do that?" Joyce Wilson said. "It's a death sentence. They didn't care if people had kidney issues or not. My husband went into the hospital in kidney distress. They exacerbated it with Remdesivir. Then they ventilated him, and he died."


"This is absurd," Tracy Bird told me. "The FDA can no longer be trusted with any drug under any circumstances. It's all conflicts of interest. My husband Jeff had strong kidney function when he went in the hospital. They gave him Remdesivir, and three days later, he was in kidney failure."

Cheri Martin, who lost her husband Steven to the protocol, chimed in with thoughts on the agenda: "They're going to use this decision as a way to clean house of renal patients and people on dialysis. It's saving a ton of money for Medicare over the next twenty years."
 
That is another case where the "patient" is being used as a consumer of a product forced on them for the benefit of the drug company. One of the drs I follow online had a really neat talk on this earlier today. He mentioned that in countries where they couldn't afford to dose people with the expensive stuff--read socialized medicine or third world-- and supplies of the other more unusual meds like Remdesivir and Ivermectin off label being used early on disappeared....

--they turned to old fashioned time tested CHEAP dexamethasone -- he mentioned Britain where the studies were done and the death rate plummeted as they gave them 6 mg as soon as they were seen in emerg and diagnosed correctly (in Canada we used 5 mg of prednisone- a weaker form) for pennies (about 33 cents) a dose. Another part of the study was done in India-also a place where cheaper treatments are necessities.

Prednisone is a bog standard med at 5 mg for 1 week, once a day for quickly treating asthmatics in distress at the local hospital (I've been given it several times) and it's fairly safe (nothing is 100%) and it became the standard for treatment of the plague here in Canada fairly quickly. Hardly anyone went onto needing respirators after they started doing that.

I caught it last fall and began to notice breathing difficulty on day 6 when that problem usually shows up. We had PSA's telling people to get in fast on day 6 if they had troubles. I nipped into emerg, got my prednisone as usual --same as I have in the past for asthma flares, and hey presto I was feeling fine within hours. No serious side effects, no complications and no massive bill for me or the govt.

Remdesivir is an expensive killer. Prednisone isn't pleasant but it and dexamethasone saved a lot of lives and a lot of money too.
