WASHINGTON, D.C.: A panel of health experts appointed by the US government voted to recommend Merck''s Covid pill for high-risk adult patients, a new form of treatment that is easy to administer and could prove more able to withstand variants including Omicron. Molnupiravir, already authorized in Britain, has been shown to reduce the rate of hospitalizations and deaths among high-risk Covid patients when taken within five days of symptom onset. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA), which convened Tuesday''s meeting, is expected to soon grant an emergency use authorization, meaning millions of courses of the capsules will be stocked in pharmacies for patients with prescriptions. But the final margin of victory with 13 experts in favor and 10 against reflected concerns over a recent downgrading of the treatment''s efficacy results and fears over its potential harms. "This was a difficult decision," said Sascha Dublin, of the Kaiser Permanente Washington Health Research Institute. Dublin said that while she found the benefits compelling enough, it will be important to make sure the pill is strictly regulated and goes to patients best suited for the treatment.

The S&P 500 and the Nasdaq jumped more than 1% on Wednesday following a sharp sell-off triggered by concerns over rising inflation and the new Omicron coronavirus variant, while shares of Merck rose on progress in approval of its COVID-19 pill. Merck & Co Inc gained 1.8% after a panel of advisers to the US Food and Drug Administration narrowly voted to recommend the agency authorize the drugmaker''s antiviral pill to treat COVID-19. All of the 11 major S&P sectors advanced in early trading, with energy, materials and financials leading the gains. Banks added 2.3%, recouping losses suffered in the previous session. US stocks slumped on Tuesday after Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell in his testimony before the Senate Banking Committee indicated that he no longer considers inflation as "transitory". Tech rally lifts Wall Street from Omicron-driven slump Powell also said the US central bank would consider bringing forward plans for tapering its bond buying program at its next meeting in two weeks. "Most investors realized that the Fed was going to have to shift course somewhat there''s plenty of people that feel inflation is a bigger problem, and maybe a bigger risk to the market would be the Fed failing to take any action that recognizes that," said Rick Meckler, partner, Cherry Lane Investments in New Vernon, New Jersey. "Coming to the year-end, where markets can be a little less liquid, we are likely to see some back and forth until we get more information (on Omicron)." Investors were also awaiting a Fed report, known as the "Beige Book", on current economic conditions to provide further insight into the central bank''s stance on inflation.
