Remdesivir is an antiviral agent with positive effects on the prognosis of Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19). However, there are concerns about the detrimental effects of remdesivir on kidney function which might consequently lead to Acute Kidney Injury (AKI).13 Apr. 2023

I was surprised reading this article that there was very little mention of any of the past criticism of this drug. It sounds like it has had a lot of supporters and detractors since 2020, yet there is very little mention of any of the previous criticism (a couple sentences from what I read). The WHO recently walked back their criticism of the drug
WHO recommends against the use of remdesivir in COVID-19 patients
So my question is:
if the general scientific consensus has agreed that Remdesivir does work, does that mean there is little need of much discussion on any previous detractions or concerns about its quick approval?
I would be of the opinion that the FDA not convening outside panels for this drug is notable, but I would like to know what this articles frequent editors think. (more sources:

Any good sources giving an overview? So far as I can see the modern view is that remdesevir is a bit rubbish for COVID.
