SUMMARY - A Brazilian study has concluded that there is no |
|
benefit to pregnant women taking the anti-viral oseltamivir |
|
(known also as "Tamiflu") in order to prevent severe disease or |
|
death from Covid-19. Oseltamivir was a desirable option in the |
|
country of Brazil due to its low-cost and accessibility, as |
|
opposed to other anti-virals at the time. |
|
NOTE - There is another study conducted earlier with a general |
|
population that cites a reduction of 2.5%. Given the two studies |
|
(no statistical difference & 2.5%), perhaps relying on |
|
oseltamivir shouldn't be anyone's "Plan A" for avoiding adverse |
|
Covid-19 outcomes, especially given that there are far better |
|
options (Moderna & Pfizer) available. |
