It appears that ivermectin is good in advanced disease.

Any theories as to why an anti-parasitic would be bad news for a virus? I find this puzzling. If all you've got is guesswork, it's still better than mine!

Our NH new cases have dropped 50% in a week, but inpatient census has never been higher (10-14 day lag to get sick enough). Rounds today were tough.

Merry Christmas.

Ivermectin is actually a macrolide like a Zithromax Macrolides have antiviral and anti-inflammatory activity. Why ivermectin over any other? I wish I had an answer. But it does work.

I believe there is a Federal law that requires all pharmas made for animals be made to the same standards as pharmas for humans. But they have to give you the warning.

Thank you for the advice.

It turns out my niece works at an HCA hospital in Florida, so the few times anyone in my family has needed hospital care there, they’ve gone to that hospital.

Any idea how I would convince someone in my family to switch hospitals?
