Ivermectin, Drug used to treat parasites, lice and scabies drug could cut COVID deaths by up to 75%, peer reviewed research to be published suggests

A cheap and safe drug widely used against parasites cuts Covid infections, hospitalisations and deaths by about 75 per cent, a study shows.

More than 30 trials across the world found that ivermectin causes ‘repeated, consistent, large magnitude improvements in clinical outcomes’ at all stages of the disease.

The peer-reviewed study, to be published in the US journal Frontiers of Pharmacology, says the evidence is so strong that the drug – used to treat head lice and scabies – should become a standard therapy everywhere, so hastening the global recovery.

Study co-author Professor Paul Marik, director of emergency and pulmonary care at the Eastern Virginia Medical School in the US, said: ‘The data is overwhelming – we are in a pandemic, and this is an incredibly effective way to combat it. If we use Ivermectin widely, our societies can open up.’

Other medications have been touted as effective treatments for combating coronavirus, only for trials to dash hopes – notably with hydroxychloroquine, the anti-malarial drug.

An earlier study by Professor Andrew Hill of Liverpool University also concluded that Ivermectin cuts death rates by around three-quarters.

He recommended there should be larger trials before it was approved by UK regulators. A new trial of ivermectin as a Covid treatment is due to start shortly at Oxford University.

If you don’t believe there is a conspiracy, then why are those “conventional MD who steps out of line” facing sanctions and de-licensing? Who is doing the ‘sanctioning’ and ‘de-licensing’?

What you said, plus Ivermectin and Hydroxychloroquine have very well established safety profiles going back many many years. These medications are not mandatory.

On the other hand, the new vaccine is supported by a massive marketing campaign and carries the appearance of being mandatory. And it does not have a long safety profile.

Dr Ivette Lozano, the Texas MD who fought to prescribe HCQ for her patients, recently described CV19 as predominantly a disease targeted at overweight/unhealthy Americans. The statistics bear out what she has observed. It took the intervention of a Texas State Senator, Bob Hall, to get the Texas Pharmacy Board to back off suppression of HCQ.

Now, if there truly were a strong medical basis for backing off a defacto HCQ ban, why would the pharmacy board back off their little ban just because a State Senator brought light to what they had done??

Where are the Public Service Announcements encouraging us to make lifestyle changes to reduce co-morbidities (eg lose weight) specifically to reduce cv19 mortality numbers? Dr Lozano by her own admission lost a bunch of weight to set an example in her practice.

For that matter, where are the PSA’s instructing us on mask use?

The dismissive attitude of conventional MDs and public health officials towards wellness MDs and other branches of health promotion is telling. We are expected to trust public health on vaccines, while at the same time these same authorities are applauding as wellness MDs are targeted by FTC/FDA/licensing and social media is canceling information offered by the same.

The state medical licensing boards will punish any MD who steps out of line with respect to vaccines or “standard of care”. This is very well known.

After CA eliminated the conscience exemption for vaccines, Dr Bob Sears started writing medical exemptions for patients who did not want their children to receive one or more of the recommended vaccines. He was sanctioned for something which should be entirely between himself and his patients.

Dr Paul Offit MD, a man who made tens of millions of dollars from his own rotavirus vaccine, wants religious and conscience exemptions abolished. His argument is that medical doctors should have a say (medical exemptions).

My SIL was flat on his back. Doctor would not even let him come to the office. He took a triple dose 3 days in a row. On fourth day he was out mowing the yard.

Excellent post.

Follow the $$$ works with this UNPROVEN ‘vax’, as well.

Speaking of where are the PSAs.....just look at all of the $$$ being spent on ads, pushing this ‘vax’ on social media. Even on Nextdoor....a supposed site for neighbors to connect with neighbors. The PSAs/community health ads there, are such a put off.

Like you suggested....wouldn’t it be better to advise people to take better care of their GENERAL health...not just as a preventative/easier way to overcome CV, but, for their long term well being?

Their cancel cult is all part of the coordination.....for disinformation or PREVENTING actual safe, effective treatment information from getting out.

Really sickening.

So, why would the licensing boards of all fifty states act in concert to suppress useful medical information? Who has enough power to ensure all fifty boards keep in step?

That’s like asking how the Catholic Church can insist that Communion is offered every Sunday. They believe in it, just like the medical associations are wedded to one-size-fits-all vaccination and standard of care.

You can twist and deflect all you want.

The issue is not conspiracy.

Playing whack-a-mole with health is the conventional way. More money for the MDs. More money for Pharma. And a sicker, fatter, poorer dumbed-down population less able to think critically.

Doctors in US hospitals are refusing patient requests to use this drug.

Not all...I saw a video last night from Dr. Been medical lectures with Dr. Kory. It was lengthy, and very informative—probably Dr. Kory’s best one...talked about a protocol for long-haulers and answered questions at the end of the video...

Video had a slide with several hospitals/providers and indicated they are using Ivermectin @ 1:03 on the video...It is a start ;)

I saw a live video presentation last night outlining Ivermectin use from Dr. Been medical lectures with Dr. Kory. This is the most current video Dr. Kory has done.

Video was lengthy, and very informative—probably Dr. Kory’s best one...in addition to the prophylaxis outpatient protocols, and hospital use, he talked about a protocol for long-haulers and answered questions at the end of the video...

Video had a slide with several hospitals/providers and indicated they are using Ivermectin @ 1:03:22 on the video...

Don’t buy ANY drug/supplement, on Ebay, please.

If you insist on the horse paste version, you can order/buy horse paste Ivermectin, easily, from Tractor supply and be guaranteed it is NOT counterfeit.
