You aren't kidding. Back in August, when my elderly, double-vaxxed parents had a bad case of the Delta COVID, and their doctors had offered them NOTHING to relieve their suffering and potentially save their lives, I offered to drive to their house with my personal stash of a certain horse drug, but my mom said, "What??? That's poisonous!" I checked the FDA & CDC websites, and sure enough, as you note, that's pretty much what they said about the drug. I could only face-palm and hope the parents would change their minds if they got worse. Fortunately, my parents didn't go to the hospital, so they didn't have a chance to be actually poisoned with Remdesivir, and they survived.
Also, I love your tongue-in-cheek humor, John Roark!

Thanks. Isn't Japan using it now , on Covid, too? Any other countries using it?
It's still banned in Australia (unless you have scabies). So hard to understand why, unless there is a fix in...
