Economics

It's not quite clear the relevance of the final line in the 'Economics' section, parts of which are lifted close-to-verbatim from the FT article it cites.

While somewhat informative, the article also only demonstrates two cases of Paxlovid being given as a gift. Further, the language in the sentence is very similar to that in the FT article, and it seems not much effort has been made to de-editorialize it, so to speak. So, first I would question the relevance of the sentence altogether. The FT article cited doesn't demonstrate the extent of the phenomena well enough to warrant inclusion in this article. Second, at minimum the language should be changed to be more neutral and fitting for an encyclopedia. Since the article is unlocked, I'm going to use my discretion and delete.

"Paxlovid" pronunciation

It might be helpful to include that; the Pfizer commercial has actors saying "If it's COVID, it's Paxlovid", but that's obviously a primary source so I'm assuming it's a no-go. Mapsax (talk) 01:31, 17 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Lede is bent out of shape

Lede contains as of today 2 paragraphs about regulatory history (!) but nothing about the medically important rebound phenomenon, as present in the body of the page. Lede was stuffed with recentism and is cluttered with refs. Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Lead section. Wuerzele (talk) 09:42, 25 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
