Merck's pill is an nucleotide analogue that works by inserting itself into the virus RNA, creating errors in its ability to replicate!

Thr major problem is that same analogue could also insert itself into any relocating cellular RNA, creating potentially massive longe term side effect!

Humanity is going nuts allowing for such high risk poisonous craps to be developed & sold as Medicine.

in my view, technology is nit compatible with biology, unless the technology works by empowering the biology!
