Remdesivir – What You Must Know
August 26, 2024 by Doctor Vernon Coleman
Remdesivir is described as a `broad spectrum antiviral drug’. It is a RNA polymerase inhibitor which disrupts the production of vital RNA. It is said to prevent the multiplication of SARS-CoV-2. Remdesivir was introduced for the treatment of covid-19 patients who were in hospital suffering from covid-19, with or without pneumonia. It is still being widely used. I have been researching and writing about drugs since 1970 and I am appalled at the way that it now appears that in some countries some hospitals and doctors (and even nurses) are now routinely giving remdesivir to patients – particularly elderly patients – who do not have severe signs and/or symptoms of the flu or a flu-like viral infection. You can form your own opinion on whether remdesivir ever has a value by reading the following information.
1. Remdesivir is officially used to treat patients who have symptoms of covid-19 or who have covid-19 according to the discredited PCR test which no one with any functioning brain tissue should use. Anyone who uses a PCR test to diagnose covid-19 is a moron and you can tell them I said that. Please see my two recent articles (on www.vernoncoleman.com) entitled `PCR: How the PCR test has killed millions’ and `The PCR test can kill you’. A positive PCR test does NOT prove that you have covid-19, dandruff, chilblains, covid-19 or anything else.
2. Remdesivir seems to be very, very popular with very, very stupid doctors who seem to think it is a panacea for all illnesses. If their Mercedes or BMW breaks down they probably give the car a shot of remdesivir.
3. Remdesivir is given directly into a vein. Doctors who tell you that giving drugs via a vein is an entirely safe procedure are stupid. No medical procedure is entirely safe. Giving drugs by injection into a blood stream requires skill and experience to avoid dangers.
4. The brand name of remdesivir is Veklury. (Brand names always begin with an initial capital but generic names are all lower case.) If you are being given Veklury, you are being given remdesivir.
5. Remdesivir should be prescribed by a doctor and given under a doctor’s supervision. (Nurses may wear stethoscopes round their necks, but they are not doctors.)
6. Remdesivir must be given slowly over a period of between 30 minutes and 120 minutes.
7. Hospital patients are usually given remdesivir once a day for up to 10 days.
8. Patients not in hospital are usually given remdesivir once a day for three days.
9. Patients who are given remdesivir MUST have regular blood tests to check that their livers are functioning properly. If a doctor gives remdesivir without doing regular liver function tests he or she is dangerous and, in my opinion, should have their medical licence revoked.
10. Liver function tests MUST be done before remdesivir is prescribed. Any doctor who does not do liver tests before starting treatment should be sacked and have their medical licence revoked.
11. Severe renal toxicity has been noted in animal studies. (Some doctors claim that animal studies are irrelevant. I agree. But why do them if they are irrelevant?)
12. No one should be given remdesivir if they are allergic to it.
13. Anyone who has ever had liver disease or kidney disease should inform their doctor if he/she suggests prescribing remdesivir.
14. Anyone who is pregnant or breastfeeding should tell their doctor. The UK’s National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) says that the safety of covid-19 antiviral treatment during pregnancy has NOT been established.
15. Remdesivir may interact, to your disadvantage, with other prescription medicines, with over the counter medicines, with vitamins and with herbal products. Doctors who prescribe remdesivir must ask patients about all the medicines they are taking.
16. Remdesivir has received a number of reviews on drugs.com, and of the reviews listed on 24th August 2024, 19.38% or reviewers had a `positive experience’ but 47% had a `negative experience’.
17. According to the journal `Science’, in October 2020,`The World Health Organisation’s Solidarity Trial showed that remdesivir does not reduce mortality or the time covid-19 patients take to recover.’ And `A second, smaller placebo-controlled study of remdesivir on hospitalised covid-19 patients in China, published online by The Lancet on 29th April 2020, found no statistically significant benefit from the treatment – and the antiviral surprisingly had no impact on levels of the coronavirus’. I find it difficult to see why the FDA, the EU and the UK’s drug regulator all approved remdesivir, though they appear to have done so without worrying too much about the research showing that it was pretty useless.
18. Side effects which may occur when remdesivir is injected include: fast, pounding heartbeats; trouble in breathing; wheezing, shivering, itching, sweating, facial swelling, severe headache, a feeling of being about to pass out. Side effects subsequently may include nausea and abnormal liver function tests.
19. NICE reports that there are twelve drugs with which remdesivir inter-reacts. Any doctor prescribing remdesivir should know of these interactions – which are listed on the NICE website. So, for example, the manufacturers advise that patients avoid taking remdesivir with chlorquine, hydroxychloroquine and phenytoin. I cannot put a link to the NICE website because such links are not allowed. The list of side effects below was NOT taken from the NICE website. (Since it is a public sector body and paid for by taxpayers, you’d think that NICE would be delighted to share information about drug dangers wouldn’t you?)
20. Side effects which can occur in patients taking remdesivir may include:
Back pain
Bleeding
Blistering
Burning
Chest tightness
Chills
Coldness
Cough
Dark coloured urine (a possible sign of liver problems)
Difficulty in swallowing
Discolouration of skin
Fast heartbeat
Feeling of pressure
Fever
Flushing
Headache
Hives and itching
Infection
Inflammation
Light coloured stools (a possible sign of liver problems)
Lumps
Nausea and vomiting
Numbness
Pain
Puffiness or swelling of the eyelids or around the eyes, face, lips or tongue
Redness
Scarring
Seizures
Skin rash
Soreness
Stinging
Stomach pain, continuing
Swelling
Tenderness
Tingling
Trouble breathing
Ulceration
Unusual tiredness or weakness
Yellow eyes or skin (a possible sign of liver problems)
You will be relieved to know that not all patients would be expected to have all of these side effects, though a number of these side effects are classified as `common’.
Please share this article with everyone you know. And please send or show copies of this article to every doctor and nurse you can reach. Send copies to your GP and your local hospital. Unlike NICE I like to share the information I obtain, and unlike YouTube and the mainstream media I believe that the truth should not be censored and must be shared as widely as possible. I suspect that this article will be suppressed and hidden by Google et al. And I am banned from all media (mainstream and online) so please help share this article.

NOTE
My first two books `The Medicine Men’ and `Paper Doctors’ dealt with dishonesty and corruption in medicine. `The Medicine Men’ dealt with the relationship between doctors and the drug industry. `Paper Doctors’ dealt with medical research. Both were published in the 1970s and attracted much praise at the time (though not from the pharmaceutical industry or the medical establishment). You can purchase them both from the bookshop on www.vernoncoleman.com
Anyone who uses a PCR test to diagnose covid-19 is a moron and you can tell them I said that.
And yet, Doctors (MDs) are still using them.
No one should be given remdesivir if they are allergic to it.
How would you know, if you've never been injected with it before? But then, a lot of new meds say that. As if I would go into the doctor and say, "Stick me with needles from every drug ever made."
Didn't remdesivir kill people who were on ventilators?
In the United States, whatever the amount of the total hospital bill was, the (Doesn't) Cares Act law would pay the hospital a 20% "New Drug Bonus" ***but ONLY IF the hospital administered the kidney-killing drug remdesivir/Veklury made by Gilead Sciences drug company.***
So here's the math:
--> If the total hospital bill is $300,000, then the hospital got paid a "New drug Bonus" of 20% = $60,000 as a Bonus for administering the DEADLY remdesivir. This one deadly drug was singled out for a HUUUUUUGE financial incentive to be used on unsuspecting patients. Absolutely criminal.
Whatever happened to "First Do No Harm"/the Hippocratic Oath? GONE! Out the window!!
Here in the United States there were additional lucrative incentives to commit these financially-incentivized hospital murders:
--> Covid positive test at admission? Hospital is paid $13,000.
--> Vent a Medicare patient? Hospital is paid an additional $39,000.
--> Patient died of "Covid"? Add some other $ dollar amount.
ATTENTION: hospital billing department
Just enter the correct ICD-10 diagnosis code to collect your blood money!!!!!
(As far as I know, this evil law has NOT been repealed.)
Financially incentivized hospital murder with remdesivir and vents.
These are murderers, not healers ... Death mills, killing fields, not hospitals. ... The hospital administrators and department heads who instructed the staff are accomplices to TENS of THOUSANDS of MURDERS! ALL of the perpetrators need to be brought to justice.
NOTE: In the United Kingdom they used midazolam instead of run-death-is-near/Veklury.
These are EVIL laws enacted by EVIL people & administered by EVIL hospitals, EVIL hospital administrators, and quite a few doctors who should have known better but went along with the killing as they were too frightened they might lose their license to practice medicine if they refused to participate in the hospital murders.
The banks in Switzerland and London may ultimately be behind this thinly disguised population cull. The United States Department of Defense is most certainly behind it. Likely a test run to prepare for future bioweapons with a much higher kill rates. The carbon they wish to reduce is all of us.
Question: After all, who could possibly be more powerful than governments to force 190 countries to act in lockstep with little variation?
Answer: the Swiss banks and B.I.S. [Bank for International Settlements] who control their national debt and hence their ability to continue operating though the governments are BANKRUPT.
Switzerland. The country that NEVER sees war within its borders. The death and destruction is always visited upon all of the surrounding countries -- England, France, Germany, Italy, Russia, Spain, Japan, Ukraine, Iraq, Syria, etc., -- but NEVER the "nice" "neutral" banking country of Switzerland which finances BOTH sides of the World Wars literally making a killing!
Switzerland. Home of the W.H.O. in Geneva, the B.I.S. [Bank for International Settlements] in Basel, more banks in Zurich, a new N.A.T.O. liaison office in Geneva, whose Swiss guards in their pretty, colorful blue, red, and yellow uniforms also guard the Vatican enclave within the City of Rome.
