Covid-19 is beginning to resist antiviral drugs.
« on: »
SUMMARY - Two Covid-19 antiviral drugs, nirmatrelvir and remdesivir, are losing their effectiveness against more recent Covid-19 strains as these strains are beginning to adapt defenses against them. These resistant strains of Covid-19 are able to be transmitted between patients although this transmission has only been demonstrated in hamsters and has not yet been observed in humans.

LINK -
Immunocompromised patients are particularly likely to see the evolution of these mutants, but the risk to the general public remains unclear.
