McSon1, 19 yoa, diagnosed with Covid today. He's been feeling crummy past 4 days. Headache, minor aches, fatigue. No fever. No loss of taste or smell. Neither McMom nor me are vaccinated. This will be an interesting 10 days.

I hope for the best, my friend.

Seems too restrictive. Is supply low or the treatment has too much danger to just be giving to otherwise healthy people?

It's quite safe, and I don't think it's in short supply. It's expensive, though (although it's covered but the state everywhere, as far as I know)

some useful analysis here

The Provincetown Outbreak Shows Vaccinated People Can Be Infected by the Coronavirus, but the CDC's Director Grossly Exaggerates That Risk

and a troubling lack of understanding or precision from the CDC head.

""Every 20 vaccinated people, one or two of them could get a breakthrough infection," Walensky told CNN's John Berman. That statement, which implies that 5 to 10 percent of vaccinated people will catch COVID-19, grossly exaggerates the odds of a breakthrough infection. Walensky seems to have misconstrued the meaning of the effectiveness rates reported in vaccine studies, which is a pretty serious mistake for the head of the CDC to make.""

considering by confirmed case count only 10% the US has had Covid it's nuts for the CDC Director to imply 5 - 10% of vaccinated people could get Covid.

Not sure I can believe the MSM anymore regardless of suppossed politcal slant. I dont have a sub, but even in what I could read:

"On Tuesday, China’s National Health Commission reported 42 new cases of locally transmitted symptomatic infection, a day after recording 85 such cases—its highest daily count in six months."

42 cases in Jan 2021 in a city of millions makes this baloney. But at the same time the WSJ and NBC have lied to us.
