On Saturday January 29, 2022 at a Trump rally located in Conroe, Texas president Trump read a poem entitled "The Snake" written by Oscar Brown. Some pundits in the media have called this poem controversial and immediately accused Trump of using it to incite violence against illegal immigration. But... what if president Trump was really attempting to send a message to scientists who are investigating the origins of Covid, and in particular, the drug remdesivir that is being used to treat Covid patients?

There are many respected doctors and world renowned scientists who are now speaking out against the use of the drug remdesivir.

According to the World Health Organization (November 19, 2020):
The antiviral remdesivir should not be used as treatment for hospitalized Covid-19 patients, the World Health Organization said Thursday, only a month after the Food and Drug Administration approved the drug to treat patients over age 12 who are hospitalized with Covid-19. (nbcnews)

Question:
Why is Remdesivir still being used when treating Covid patients?

"The Snake" by Oscar Brown

On her way to work one morning
Down the path along side the lake
A tender hearted woman saw a poor half frozen snake
His pretty colored skin had been all frosted with the dew
"Poor thing," she cried, "I'll take you in and I'll take care of you"
"Take me in tender woman
Take me in, for heaven's sake
Take me in, tender woman," sighed the snake
She wrapped him all cozy in a comforter of silk
And laid him by her fireside with some honey and some milk
She hurried home from work that night and soon as she arrived
She found that pretty snake she'd taken to had bee revived
"Take me in, tender woman
Take me in, for heaven's sake
Take me in, tender woman," sighed the snake
She clutched him to her bosom, "You're so beautiful," she cried
"But if I hadn't brought you in by now you might have died"
She stroked his pretty skin again and kissed and held him tight
Instead of saying thanks, the snake gave her a vicious bite
"Take me in, tender woman
Take me in, for heaven's sake
Take me in, tender woman," sighed the snake
"I saved you," cried the woman
"And you've bitten me, but why?
You know your bite is poisonous and now I'm going to die"
"Oh shut up, silly woman," said the reptile with a grin
"You knew damn well I was a snake before you took me in
"Take me in, tender woman
Take me in, for heaven's sake

Unlikely to be completely gone in that small amount of time (except if some big conglomerate like disney buy them and close them down lol), but most likely to struggle maintaining their position in the streaming service market if they keeps failing to compete with upcoming competitor. Imagine it’s like Facebook, they aren’t as popular as they used to be, but there will some people who would still choose to stick with them as long as they keeps operating.
Also, Netflix have somewhat a strong establishment in certain countries with little to no competitor (or at least not as powerful enough to rival Netflix) like in Southeast Asia where Netflix is pretty much the best streaming service you can get to watch both national and international shows so I kinda doubt that they would fall that bad to the point of closing down completely, but sure they would lose their peak and old glory.

Depends on the definition of “lost.” If you are referring to a friend just deciding to not be friends anymore, I get quietly mad, then sad/self-conscious, and then eventually I remember the reasons why they left and just realize they aren’t worth the time if they don’t value friendship as much as I do. Unless I’m the one that fucked up… still working on figuring that one out. If you are referring to a friend passing, it’s pretty easy: you don’t. I knew a girl who was one of the few people in this world that day 1 I felt I could talk to about anything and would genuinely listen and understand. Even about the darker stuff in life. Apparently there was a reason she was so understanding of the struggles I (or anyone who has a diagnosed mental illness) faced, because she left a few years ago. She was 20. It’s completely earth shattering. In my case, when I found out my mind became useless. There was no such thing as logic, and the world physically felt far away. All I was at that point was a mass of negative energy and emotions… at least that’s what it felt like. I didn’t have to do anything generally speaking, but I was at a complete loss as to what to do, think, or feel. Basically you run on autopilot until the shock fades. What I’m getting at is over time the mind begins it’s sluggish return to what I feel is an imitation of my mindset prior to that day. Eventually, you can do basics again such as brushing teeth, showering or just being able to sleep for 7 hours. At some point you finally reach what feels like a close experience to normalcy, but it will always feel just slightly different. You overcome the shock, but you never overcome the devastation of it all.

⍟『 ᴀᴘᴀʀɪᴇɴᴄɪᴀ 』
Un joven de complexión delgada y estatura de 1.88. Su cabello azul “natural” y sus orbes completamente negras hacen que destacar entre la multitud sea una tarea de lo más fácil. Una piel clara, a veces cubierta de moretones, y carente de un par de dientes delanteros.

---

Su vestimenta tiende a variar mucho, pero siempre suele ponerse lo que encuentra primero.

⍟『 ᴘᴇʀꜱᴏɴᴀʟɪᴅᴀᴅ 』
Stuart es de carácter tranquilo con un gran talento musical, aunque tiene problemas de confianza. Amable e ingenuo, alguien que te ofrece su mano con una sonrisa y nunca te suelta hasta que lo necesites— pero también es descrito como alguien tonto, torpe y distraído. Muy seguido parece tener la cabeza en las nubes, lo que comúnmente lo mete en malentendidos; pero no deja que ello opaque sus buenos sentimientos e intenciones. Stuart es una persona penosa en muchos sentidos, incluso mencionando que no sabe como debe comportarse una celebridad de su tipo. De comportamiento un tanto tímido en el escenario, pero de alguna forma nunca se ve fuera de lugar; como si verdaderamente perteneciera ahí. Es asustadizo, pero un cobarde jamás.

También es alguien muy evasivo en cuanto a conflictos se refiere; incluso “dejándose” pisotear. No le gusta pelear con nadie, no es del tipo que odie muchas cosas y casi nunca se queja de nada. Bien podrías hacer que se tropiece y él solo se levantará y quizá se irá; sin ningún tipo de reclamo en contra tuya. “Influenciable” podría ser una palabra usada para describirlo igualmente— pero no en el sentido de hacer que cambie de actitud. Stuart tiene su personalidad definida, pero, por ejemplo; si le metes una idea sobre quién eres tú y se lo dices con seguridad, él va a caer redondito en tu mentira como un perfecto idiota. No suele cuestionarse muchas cosas.

A pesar de que 2D ha experimentado cosas horribles, no carga ni una sola pizca de malicia consigo. Sufre de depresión, pero la sobrelleva relativamente bien.
