They pushed this drug 4 times and it failed - and now it failed for the 5th time.

Fauci has ties to Gilead. Gilead makes remdesivir.

You need to give one up. Kidney reparations. Give a kidney to a POC, Bigot

I’ll just go with zpack and HCQ and zinc...

It’s cheaper, less deadly and if it doesn’t work at least you’re protected from Malaria

It appears ALL 5 patients were already in ICU before treatment. Important scientific fact. So they were in bad shape already.

The drug did appear to reduce "viral lode" in upper respiratory. But it was too late for the patients, 2 of whom died anyway

I'm old enough to remember when HCQ was administered to people in late stages and WHO immediately and loudly proclaimed they were halting trials due to safety hazards.

Plasma samples were positive for SARS-CoV-2 in only one patient.

But what did they mean by this??

It almost sounds like people with unrelated conditions are being marked as having covid.

Guess the FIFTH time wasn't the charm.

Remember this drug has FAILED 4 other times in treating diseases and not just COVID-19 (Kung Flu).

It has failed treating Ebola (why it was originally developed).

It failed a Feburary clinical Trial to treat Kung flu

It failed an April clinical Trial to treat Kung flu

It's failing a June Trial to treat Kung flu

It's a failed drug

I’ve also seen reports of liver failure too. No way would I take this.

Leftism is the cultural and political manifestation of envy and resentment.

So one causes renal failure, the other might give you the squirts.

Looks like another Fauci failure.

I think by renal replacement they mean CRRT (continuous renal replacement therapy). It’s a form of hemodialysis. They are calling it a potential side effect, so that is worrisome. But people in the ICU frequently have kidney injuries for one reason or another, so it’s hard to say. I still think the benefit of Remdesivir is minuscule compared to the cost. Also the studies show it doesn’t reduce mortality on critically ill people anyway. The only people it claims to help a small amount are people with mild oxygen requirements.

Guys remdesivir is the future!!!!

The hype surrounding this drug disappeared quick like. What was it... 6/8 weeks ago Fauci was touting that shit? And then Poof. Now we know why. He's also reponsible for the suppression of CHQ

The moment Google was advertising fauci for little to no reason, I knew he was a fraud trying to make that $$$ for daddy Gilead.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but that guy has had the same job for roughly 35 years, but he was totally unprepared to deal with this outbreak.

Granted, I heard whispers from Chinese doctors of remdesivir being effective back in January and February, but it's possible they were probably trying out different things or spreading misinformation at that time. Nearly 5 months later, big pharma in the states IS FINALLY pushing for it? Seems like an extremely lazy and sloth-like response time to me.
