It should be stickied, but for a different purpose. This is clickbait and gross misinformation from a lawyer who damn well should know better. This study does NOT show that remdesivir killed 50% of patients. It shows that ebola killed 50% of patients and remdesivir failed to stop it. There's no control group so we can't specify a baseline mortality rate. We can only infer it is ~50% because another treatment also had a 50% mortality rate in the same study. That drug also failed.
The safety signal was difficult to distinguish because ebola is such a nasty disease at baseline. Look at table S7 of the Supplemental in this study. Only one event was deemed possibly related, and the disease itself could easily have caused it.
You're making a "mass murder" claim which is totally unsupported by this study. That's not to say there wasn't an effort to milk the hell out of COVID to boost mortality numbers. There absolutely was such an effort to manipulate the data in order to ratchet up fear and thus justify police state-style surveillance and control policies. But again, this study doesn't show that.
Yeah I knew I should have waited until I had time to actually look into it. I stand by the rest of my point including mass murder though, just not by way of remdesivir. It's crazy to me that hella people know what they've done with the vax (though not even the full extent yet) but we just talk about it on the internet like "ah these assholes" lol. Same goes for everything else besides COVID and the vax that many people know about.
