The COVID "Pill"

I would not trust the new pill now being marketed as the first oral anti-viral medication for symptomatic COVID-19.  Look what the BBC reports about it:

First pill to treat Covid gets approval in UK

...It targets an enzyme that the virus uses to make copies of itself, introducing errors into its genetic code. That should prevent it from multiplying, so keeping virus levels low in the body and reducing the severity of the disease.

Merck said that approach should make the treatment equally effective against new variants of the virus as it evolves in the future.

Now, a logical question would be, considering that those who have been vaccinated are carrying genetic material that codes for the virus' spike protein, could their own cells be affected by this targeted enzyme and could their own cells have errors introduced into their genetic code?  A second logical question is, what exactly is carrying the "genetic errors" meant to target this enzyme?  It seems to me that it would have to be the same nano-particle-delivered mRNA with just a different message.  If they can hijack the virus' ability to reproduce by "introducing genetic errors," why not people, too???  

Unfortunately, there is no one I trust to answer these questions right now.  Meantime, I would steer clear.  Considering that its effectiveness is being deemed "about" 50%, the risk seems to far outweigh any potential benefit, in my considered opinion.  Dr. Zelenko's protocol is proven highly effective without such risk.
