Eligibility for the COVID-19 antiviral medication has been expanded to more Australians by the government who are concerned about the ongoing surge of infections across the country.

Cases have substantially increased in the past couple of months with close to 4,000 patients receiving treatment in hospitals and 172 in intensive care or ventilated.

More Australians will have access to COVID-19 antiviral treatments from Monday in a bid to reduce the number of hospitalisations around the country. Picture: Joe Raedle/Getty Images Residents aged over 50 and Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander people aged 30 and older with at least two risk factors for severe disease will also be eligible.

Health Minister Mark Butler said the pills are"cheap" and"effective" medicines that are aimed at easing the pressure on hospitals. The former government ordered 1.3 million doses of the drug and Mr Butler hopes medical authorities can extend the 18-month shelf life on the products.

Is this ivermectin re branded or is it another untested drug they created yesterday 🤔

The only reason the vax was allowed was under emergency use authorization because there were no treatments (not true but thats the excuse they made) now that these treatments are available the emergency use authorisation should be removed.

Are they Pfizer antiviral drugs? If so, not interested

zu verstehen: corone, AIDS bipolar das ist das es ja nicht geben sollte: elektronische Geiseln, vergiftet und an Elektrizität in die imunschwäche gerissem. (Experimente wie contergan bis Datum keiner beendet) nach menschenrech, Strafrecht, Völkerrecht zum Tod zu verurteilem

But clot shot number 5 is going to be safe and effective

Why mandate the vaccine then?

Yeah but what about the studies that tell us these antivirals are toxic and cancer causing? Not only that as Fauci has found with pfizer paxvolid if you've been vaccinated the covid rebounds worse a week after its gone

Where there is risk my body my choice thank you

Oh bite me Sky 'news'. Until you report truthfully on the incredible lifesaving results of the worlds cheapest, safest drug, you know, the one that rhymes with 'I'm Expectin' ', you are NOT DOING YOUR JOB.

Enjoy the rebound

变了个花样杀人

Not touching anything with the name pfizer on it! gfy

are they free for all Australians

Good there’s a treatment so the emergency use of the experimental vaccine should be revoked and made to pass proper protocols like other vaccines

So they've re branded the good old fashioned cold and flu tablets and labelled them as paxlovid and kept them from the public for the duration of the plandemic. I hate politicians.

Look at all the triggered dolts emerge. 🤣🤣

That’s one way to cull the population legally.

Covid profits are beginning to plummet so in come the antiviral peddle.

Fauci just proved that suff doesn’t work but makes the infection worse… u can keep your poison Australia

Nobel prize winning Ivermectin is still banned despite smashing Covid in India. Our health authorities are just big pharma advocates. They don't care if you live or die so long as you (or the government) buy more of their products.

One look at the top left of that pic and FUCK THAT

When will doctors be allowed to prescribe ivermectin?

Just get some ivermectin from India 😂

They did a cost benefit analysis and it's a cheaper way of killing us off and saves Governments a lot of money, you know it makes sense.

see how the box states 'For use under Emergency Use Authorisation.'? so is it 'eligible' to participate in another trial?

The people who sell the poison, sell the cure.

Our health authorities are failing hard. 99% double jabs have failed so what do we do? More jabs!!

Big Pharma raking it in $$$

So you lot have capitulated to the scam

Media 'itching' to bring back COVID-19 restrictionsAcross Australia we are experiencing a rise in the number of daily COVID-19 cases and while reporting on the pandemic has dramatically shifted for the better in recent months there are still some in the media itching to bring back hardline measures. One has to ask why? What’s in it for them? There’s a large group of our population who are obsessed with covid and desperate to keep it going for as long as possible. The reality is it’s well past time to move on , the damage caused by the response was far worse than the illness. Nothing the media would like more than their audience frustrated, bored and trapped at home in front of a screen.
