For those who have not received the vaccine because it was only approved by the FDA with an emergency use authorization will you take the anti virals that also have an emergency use authorization?

Nope, had Covid about 6 months ago and was asymptomatic. I don’t expect to get it again before the vaccine has been fully approved and if I do, I expect symptoms will be mild to moderate at best requiring no treatment.

And before someone goes off about how I could spread it, my sphere of influence is my parents (younger, late 40’s) who have both had mild Covid and both been vaccinated since. As for there not being a guarantee that Covid won’t be worse, understood that’s a risk I’m fine living with as I won’t be living with it that much longer.

I thought people only qualified for the antiviral once they were hospitalized. Olumiant is only on the table for those who are going to be intubated. At least that’s been my experience.

I think most people would. There is a big difference between actually having COVID and seeking treatment because you’re having a tough go of it, and getting a vaccine against COVID when you are healthy. If you had terminal cancer you’d probably be willing to take a pretty sketchy drug with potentially brutal side effects for a moonshot at getting better that you would generally not agree to take. Old people seem to get vaxxed at higher rates which makes sense because they have a lot more risk with getting COVID. If an unvaxxed person is using this as their excuse, I don’t think it is a blanket refusal to use emergency use authorized drugs, they are just assessing their risk (if incorrectly).

So people are saying they aren’t taking it because it is emergency use authorized and not fully authorized by the FDA. Was just wondering if that same thought process is used for antivirals.

Dyslexia!

Do NOT claim you are "colorblind" in the workplace. 1. DE&I knowledge is now a core leadership competency. Colorblind claims will earn you the reputation of being DEI-ignorant at best & racist at worst. 2. Colorblindness within the context of workplace diversity is an obvious lie. You do NOT want to be painted as an intellectually dishonest leader. 3. Colorblind claims signal that you lack the leadership skills & vocabulary to have key conversations. Ask questions here, in this safe space.
