Fluvoxamine, an antidepressant has also been hyped as a “ miracle game changer “
( * spits beer … sorry :mrgreen: )

What makes this result potentially such a big deal is that fluvoxamine is inexpensive and has already been FDA approved for obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), so any doctor can prescribe it for Covid-19 using their clinical judgment (what’s called “off-label” prescribing). It’s a pill, which means it doesn’t need to be administered in a hospital or by a medical professional.

To be clear, these results have just been released, and clinicians around the world will want to take a close look at them as they decide whether or not to prescribe fluvoxamine. Future research could also moderate this exciting result.

Here’s what we know: This is a large and well-designed study that affirms previous studies that pointed in the same direction. More research is needed, but the results from this trial might already start changing how we treat Covid-19. And the way researchers stumbled upon the drug as a potential treatment is a worthwhile story in itself about the scientific process and the unseen and often unheralded work that’s helping humanity fight the pandemic. Thank god these “ researchers “ stumble upon shit ….

Read this last quote carefully …..

“This is a huge finding,” study co-author Ed Mills, a professor of health sciences at McMaster University, told me.

“The game changers are things we already had in the cupboards.”

The upside is the idiot anti-vaxxers won't be depressed when they die. I'm good with that.

New preprint study regarding protection from natural immunity vs vaccination.

“This study demonstrated that natural immunity confers longer lasting and stronger protection against infection, symptomatic disease and hospitalization caused by the Delta variant of SARS-CoV-2, compared to the BNT162b2 two-dose vaccine-induced immunity. Individuals who were both previously infected with SARS-CoV-2 and given a single dose of the vaccine gained additional protection against the Delta variant.”

This is cool and all, but only compares the Pfizer vaccine and even it is comparing from early in vaccine trials.
This link (below) may be better ammunition for your argument, but another thing to consider is that the death and hospitalization rate among the unvaccinated is monumentally higher than among the vaccinated.

Lasting immunity found after recovery from COVID-19

The immune systems of more than 95% of people who recovered from COVID-19 had durable memories of the virus up to eight months after infection.

So, if you don’t believe in taking medicine to fight off infection, please do the rest of us a favor and don’t go to the hospital when you get terribly ill- my Uncle nearly died because he couldn’t get admitted to the ER quick enough due to unvaxxed and anti-mask assholes with Covid clogging up the system.
