I watched a commercial this morning on CNN for the Pfizer Paxlovid Treatment. The commercial does not mention Paxlovid or Pfizer by name.
The commercial says that if you test positive for Covid and if you're at high risk for the disease act fast and ask your health care provider if an oral treatment is right for you. The oral treatment can be taken at home within 5 Days from the symptoms first appearing.
At the end of the commercial, an on-screen message is shown, stating "A message brought to you by, Pfizer. For information about a treatment option from Pfizer visit www.treatcv19.com ".
Pfizer is not coming out and pushing the Paxlovid Treatment by name directly, but for you to ask your healthcare provider if the oral treatment is right for you. Presumably, placing and potential liability at it seems, directly on the physician, at least, as I see it anyways. Perhaps I'm reading too much into this commercial. Not sure if this has anything to do with the concerns raised in the article of May 25, 2022, by Jazmine Colatriano.
