Well is the money drying up now? Are countries today spending money on drugs and treatment for Covid? Is the US spending millions or billions each year on Covid?

If you look at Wikipedia Nirmatrelvir and Remdesivir are older drugs that came out in 2020 the same with Paxlovid. They both have side effects so I can see the article why they are talking about newer drugs. So if it not harder to make second generation drugs than why was it so fast to bring out first generation drugs and there is no second generation drugs now.

You posted. The link you posted shows it harder to make second generation drugs.

I tried to post second post to not confuse what I found on the internet but it will not allow me so I highlight it blue. What do you mean that second generation anti viral drugs are harder to make?

Two studies find SARS-CoV-2 virus becoming resistant to antiviral drugs used to treat patients Two studies have found that the virus that causes COVID-19 is becoming resistant to two drugs used to treat patients with infections. As part of that effort, two such therapies, named remdesivir and nirmatrelvir, have become the go-to drugs for patients with immune systems that are not capable of fighting off the virus. But because they are antivirals, they run the risk of obsolescence as the virus mutates. https://medicalxpress.com/news/2024-09-sars-cov-virus-resistant-antiviral.html ================ It is strange how first two years of the pandemic there was lots of talk into anti viral drugs and now there is no talk at all. I just check wikipedia under treatment every month and I don’t see any new anti viral drugs. Not even experimental drugs and treatments. Has founding for covid really dried up now?

Well yes but is there any examples of what the GOP said that was racist or sexist?

People say the GOP is really racist and sexist probably more than Trump. What do people mean the GOP is saying really racist and sexist comments. And why do they say they more racist and sexist than Trump?

What do you mean by Tariffs are applied as a kind of tax on the good? Than who is suppose to pay the tax?

I thought the company pays nothing? I thought the company making the monitor pays nothing or the consumer it is Chinese government that pays the tariff. And the consumer or company making the product pays nothing only the Chinese government?

I thought Trump tariffs on China goods the Chinese government is supposed to pay the tariffs not the US consumers? So say the laptop or monitor is $500 dollars and plus $300 of tariffs the Chinese government is supposed pay $300

So the study looks like you can stand as long you not standing for more than two hours. That if you are standing for more than two hours it is bad for your health. So as long you standing no more than two hours than standing desk are probably better than sitting for hours.

Economists warn that Trump's tariffs could cause tech prices to skyrocket Study says laptop prices could increase up to 45%, monitors up to 50%, many other products affected If Trump were to implement his proposed tariffs upon becoming president again, it would significantly reshape the landscape of consumer electronics in the US. Economic policy discussions can often seem abstract, but it's important to understand the real-world consequences these tariffs could bring. https://www.techspot.com/news/105205-economists-warn-trump-tariffs-could-cause-tech-prices.html

“Study finds standing desks may be bad for your health Every 30 minutes spent standing beyond two hours increases the risk of circulatory disease by 11% We've long been told that sitting at a desk all day is the new smoking, resulting in a higher risk of dangerous health conditions.

Could there also be culture difference where Japan, China, South Korea, Taiwan and other Asian countries view death as more normal and part of life? Where as in the US and western countries some thing very bad and we need to fight it?
