Superficially does seem like Pfizer’s new drug is superior. 

”Only about 0.8% of patients who received Paxlovid were hospitalized through day 28 compared to 7% of patients who received placebo and were hospitalized or died.

Merck reported that 7.3% of patients who received molnupiravir were either hospitalized or died through day 29 compared with 14.1% of placebo-treated patients.”


Looking at the above figures, about double of those who received placebo for Merck’s died compared to Pfizer. Does it mean that the patients recruited into Merck’s study are sicker? 

Without going into studying both trials in detail, suffice to say both appear to be efficacious but I’m not too sure if Pfizer’s is superior to Merck’s.

    人们没有读到关于测试的研究: 默沙东在感染病毒的头5天有效率为50%。 辉瑞在头3天内有89%的效果。 1.服药时间与药效有相关性。如果我们根据时间周期来计算有效性,那么Phizer丸在最初的5天内只能有53%的有效性。 2.COVID潜伏期可达21天。最常见的是在5-10之间。祝那些认为自己能在3天内检测出病毒并使用辉瑞的人好运。 3.药丸是疫苗的不利市场。辉瑞生产这两种疫苗,随着药片数量的增加,疫苗数量会减少。默沙东将只生产药丸,因此不会对其他产品产生不利影响。

      Personal opinion, to me investing in pharma companies is like gambling. You never know who will develop the next blockbuster!

    Surprised how many on this board see this as over reaction….MRK at PE of 28 and PFE at forward PE of 10…..their trailing earnings +100% top and bottom line and accelerating. I wish all companies well that are fighting Covid but personally see way more upside on PFE than MRK. Good luck all.

    t’s a buying opportunity. MRK Covid pill is way ahead in the approval process than PFE. I have invested in both so I am happy either way
