When I took paxlovid the world tasted like malort for a week. It was awful.
But it gets rid of Covid within 8 hours. I've never had a cure that worked so fast. It gives you a different set of problems (joint pain, tiredness, some weird tastes) but it doesn't give you heart, lung, or brain damage like Covid. I'll take it.
Yeah, Paxlovid didn't exist the last time I had COVID. The mouth taste off of it is indeed weird, but the fact that I already stopped feeling the brain fog is a huge plus. I was feeling the brain fog for a good month or so after my last infection.
