Paxlovid. Waste of money?

Post by tamada » January 2, 2024, 9:10 am

More than a billion dollars worth of Pfizer’s Covid-19 antiviral drugs procured in Europe have been wasted, according to health data, as tight controls over who can receive the medication left millions of doses unused before their expiry date.

That's just in the EU.

Google indicates that the manufacturer's expiration dates for this antiviral have regularly been tweaked in 2022/23 for certain batches.

Pfizer will make even more as it's now $1400 a pop.
