COVID OMICRON Thread

When comparing covid vax to generic ivermectin - no money is made on the ivermectin.

Looking at my wholesale cost on ivermectin, I'd say it's actually pretty close when you compare a treatment course to a treatment course.

Well I'll be transparent as I am with my staff. I have a high risk son that influences my decision making on personal risk taking if you will. We still have patients on a routine basis (at least once daily) coming to the pharmacy to get meds with active COVID. I'm not mad at them, they need their meds (although we do offer free no contact delivery), so as long as that's still happening with such regularity it will likely continue. When that becomes less frequent I would probably loosen up for staff, although I will personally probably continue beyond that. Alternatively, it the next mutation is even more mild than Omicron, I would probably allow it.

It's always hard to say for sure until the situation arises, but that's my current thought.

You probably just need to wear a mask the rest of your life then you don't have to think about it, your poor staff though.

Meh, I'm not sure that's really what's happening

We’ve already established that you’re not sure what’s really happening.

Sure. Did you have anything to contribute or just dropping in to be a smart ass? I treat my staff like gold.

Yes, once again I'm the idiot in the conversation. Throw some more $10 words out so that I'm too confused to respond.

Has anyone heard from @wtburnette the last couple days? Last I heard his oxygen was low and was having a rough time... hoping he’s doing ok.

Taj Pharma in India is one of the world’s largest producers of Ivermectin. With the boon in demand they did $5 million in sales. You might think that’s chump change compared to the 10s of billions of dollars in sales Pfizer did on the covid vaccine. And it is. It’s not chump change to Taj Pharma as they’re only a $66 million a year in sales company. While it’s not “no money” it isn’t pay everyone off money either.

I was wondering that too. Hoping he pulls through it okay.

I'm sure they appreciate being the victim of your fears and insecurities.

Wish I knew his number or a way to check on him. If anyone has a way, it would be nice to know. I think Tuesday or Wednesday was the last I saw him post I’ll have to search and see if he slipped into another thread recently

He checked in earlier in the CZ thread but it sounds like he's still having a rough go of it.

You're way out of line. Grow up.

Pfizer and Moderna are making $1000 per second, $65,000 per minute, $93,500,000 per day. I don't see much of a comparison there.

Yup just saw that. Looks like he dropped in around 4. Glad he’s doing well enough to check in, hate he’s still having a rough time.

It's surprising, I met him at the fall event and he's a pretty fit guy, sometimes it's just unpredictable.

I'm not saying I do or don't believe it, just that there are other possible explanations for the shift in messaging.

I think 5 million compared to 10s of billions pretty much puts it in perspective. But I do like your way better.

It's a roll of the dice. I haven't met him, but I'm under 40, fit and in good shape / health. It was a rough time for me and turned into pneumonia.

He replied to my PM yesterday...he has some symptoms I didn't have, but it didn't sound like his pulse ox was dropping as low as mine did.
