Headline is a bit misleading, the important conclusion is near the end:
“Bloom thinks the researchers make a good case that molnupiravir treatment is yielding some highly mutated viruses with the capacity to spread. But it’s not clear whether this could contribute to new coronavirus variants, or whether it is simply creating weakling viruses that are unlikely to spread very far.”
If it’s the former then I imagine the case is pretty strong to discontinue usage and switch to Paxlovid.
