The US FDA last Wednesday approved Pfizer's pill Paxlovid to fight the corona epidemic. Yes and now Paxlovid Tablet can be used during covid treatment of high-risk people 12 years or above. Let me tell you all that the green signal of this tablet is awaited from the Health Ministry of the Government of India and this is the first medicine that newly infected patients can now take home to stay out of the hospital. Pfizer's Paxlovid Tablet can now be used in the fight against coronavirus. The pill is a major milestone in the Covid epidemic that will allow millions of people to be treated.
Let me tell you all that the US has also claimed less risk of death among people battling corona by making a tablet called Paxlovid. On the other hand, FDA scientist Patricia Cavajoni says that a tablet has been successfully developed to treat the coronavirus, which has become a covid in many countries of the world. It is now believed to be a historic step in the global fight against corona. Let me tell you all that Pfizer CEO and Chairman Albert Borula says, "2,200 people treating corona in the hospital tested this tablet and yielded unexpected results.''
The risk of death from tablets can be reduced by 88 per cent. Let me tell you that the omicron variant has been detected some time ago. Because of this, the company is yet to test it. But experts say that since the way the tablet works is slightly different from the method of antibodies or vaccines, this tablet will be effective not only against omicrons but also against any variant of the corona. The application for Paxlovid Tablet had approached the USFDA committee and all the members of the committee have allowed its use. That is why the Committee has not shown much security threat. However, the Paxlovid tablet stops the activity of the properties. Protease is an enzyme that helps to replicate the virus.
Let us also inform you that the Centre for Disease Control and Prevention has registered a nearly six-fold increase in infection from omicrons in a week, but the prevalence of omicrons is even higher in most parts of the country. There are reports that the Omicron variant is responsible for up to 90 per cent of new infections in the New York region, southeast, industrial Midwest and Pacific Northwest.
