- The White House unveiled new steps aimed at making highly effective COVID-19 treatment pills from Pfizer more widely available. The administration said that it will add 10,000 sites where the Paxlovid pills are available – bringing the total number of sites to 30,000 – and work with pharmacies to increase that number to 40,000 “over the coming weeks.” Officials will also explore federally supported “test-to-treat” sites and provide more education to doctors to encourage them to prescribe them for people who are eligible.
