How doy ou know it kept your symptoms at bay?

Plenty of people don't get long Covid, why were you sure you'd get it if you didn't take paxlovid? Same with brain fog?

Took paxlovid also. The symptoms go away really really suddenly and fast.

Sure, you need to run a study to be absolutely certain, but it just takes one experience to notice the effect.

It's interesting how religiously "correlation is not causation" is repeated here - except when it's about personal anecdotes.
Yeah you can read very similar anecdotes from people who took ivermectin. This is why controlled experiments are so important.
