Condolences for your father. You did right by him.

I wouldn’t consider a quad bypass a comorbidity. When I recovered from Covid/pneumonia/heart attack/influenza-A in Jan ‘20 my attending hospital doctor talked-me-into getting a quad bypass even tho I only had partial blockage in one artery. In hindsight I believe it was their strategy to assist in the repair of damaged heart, lungs and kidneys from the Covid. It worked. Smart doctors! I consider myself very lucky to have gotten Covid when I did -no treatment protocols.

Thanks.

Most of my life for the past 25 years has hinged around taking care of ill and or elderly family members.

You are right about the bypass surgery. I never thought about the morbidity definition.

I find it ironic that the “vaccine” (aka jab) has a high risk of badly damaging the heart. With very serious long term risk of early death, weighed against 99.8% survival rate.

And they talk about “safe and effective”?

Many people feel like you do.

But the ComDem maggots still beat that old drum. It is all about the agenda, and most of those useful idiots don’t even know it includes them.

So, we should all take a deworming dose of Ivermectin to clear our systems as a preventative for severe COVID.

OK.

Then, keep some Ivermectin around in case we get COVID.

OK.

Moo. Whinny...

For the record, I obtained HCQ/Zinc/D3 from the florida doctor group about 2 months ago.

The point about Ivermectin was commenting on the article vis-a-vis the issue of worms.

My son says he’s feeling better each day. May be premature thinking after only 2 doses, we will see. I started this morning no reason to not get ahead of it.

How does any organic substance, be it mold, fungus, bacteria, worms, or virus, get a foot hold in the tissues of a living person? It doesn’t, for very long, unless it has a means of fooling the person’s immune response. Worms and viruses both have ways of doing end-runs around our immune response, but worms are just better at it.

So, along comes Ivermectin, and it disables the worms’ method of disarming our immune response. It’s not hard to suppose that the same Ivermectin also disables the virus’ method of sneaking past our immune defenses. So, it seems that Ivermectin bolsters a person’s ability to reject foreign organisms no matter if they are worms or viruses. I may have to try it for nail fungus!

Ivermectin has been successful in warding off Covid-19 infections in dozens of studies, in dozens of countries, not just countries that have problems with worms in humans.

As someone else said earlier, the Big Pharma defenders, after dishing out months of smug ridicule, have blinked.

RE “How does any organic substance, be it mold, fungus, bacteria, worms, or virus, get a foot hold in the tissues of a living person? ....”
You may be right but currently the data is about as poor as the data supporting masks....and that is very poor.

Viruses are very different than parasites, bacteria, fungi and humans in our physiology. It was a leap to expect Ivermectin to work. I try to keep an open mind as I was fooled by HCQ for most of 2020 but now believe it does very little.

If you look at masks and lockdowns....if they worked why has C19 continued to run unabated? Same for Ivermectin. Wishful thinking will not stop this virus.
