Here is the account of a patient that I personally treated who fell for the ivermectin fraud.

Here is what happened to me today — I share this with you because I agree with you.

You know what I am tired of? The antivaxxers. Let me tell you my day.

This morning I had to attend again to a patient with SARS from COVID. This patient had been in my ICU for 13 days including today. I work on 7 off 7 in this particular ICU. (I am sick of Hanoi Jane telling me my schedule and berating me for taking the time to educate people in the off time I have). I went back today after 7 days off. The patient was laying in a bed, lungs shredded from high vent pressures required to oxygenate the patient in order to prevent the other organs from dying from hypoxemia. Over the last 24 hours, this patient had developed severe renal failure (the harbinger for doom in the critically ill with CoVID). Patient had severe hypercoaguable state, and there was absolutely no path to survival.

Patient family was gathered day and night outside the patient’s window. We moved the patient’s bed to the window so the family could see their loved one. I had to tell 9 family members this morning that there was no way their loved one would survive. We were torturing the patient by ongoing therapy, patient had chest tubes, needed dialysis, had a failing heart, clots everywhere, and multiorgan system failure.

The kicker? The patient had the opportunity to be vaccinated. According to the family, the patient fell into the traps of the spewing of talking points that are horribly inaccurate that we see everyday on this forum. Gene therapy (it is not)...Vaccine passports...they do not exist, and the patient even tried to order and take ivermectin paste from the local supply shop.

I want every freeper who spews the bullsh*t talking points that try to sway people away from SAFE AND EFFECTIVE Vaccines to take a day, and round in the ICU with the lingering patients with COVID. I DARE them to have the courage to treat these patients, and then their families as they die HORRIBLE DEATHS. Spew you various 1 in a million problems and point out that this is OK.

The blood of many are on your hands. Do these so called Freepers who have the internet expertise of cut and past have the courage to look at this monster in the face? Care for the sick? Counsel the grieving family members? Until such as time that one of them has actually had the conversation that a loved one is dying, BUT THERE WAS A WAY TO PREVENT IT...they can all go to hell.

Good afternoon, sir.

You mentioned this:

“Here is the account of a patient that I personally treated who fell for the ivermectin fraud.”

I take it this person was treated with ivermectin at some point in his/her treatment, yet it was completely ineffective, correct?

Thank you for your help and I know you are often dealing with gut-wrenching issues.

the kicker - he tried to get ivermectin and could not or there was something preventing his access in a timely manner. I’m concluding that because you said he tried to get it from a vet source.

Will you give any urgency to being preventative - Vit D, zinc ? Everyone should have some Ivermectin on hand and start it asap at symptoms. The gas_drs out there wait to treat until you need hospitalization

It sounds like the person (not patient) tried and failed at getting medicine this is ACTUALLY safe and effected, but waqs denied that opportunity by a 'medical community' that is squashing SAFE AND EFFECTIVE early treatments in order to herd people into taking the not so safe and effective vax.

Who really has blood on their hands, gassy?

Did you prescribe ivermectin or HCQ to the PERSON in the early stages of the covid? If not, why not? Or did you people wait until the PERSON was so far gone all you could think to do was shove a killer ventilator down his neck?

Who really has blood on their hands, gassy. For reals.

Do you really know that if you had put the PERSON on Ivermectin of HCQ or some of the other treatments earlier, things might have been different?

And it about broke my heart when you talked about his family having to look at their dying family member through a window.

What in the F are you people doing?

It must be stressful to go through that. I hope this wasn’t the first of your 7-day-on shift.

But by the same token, public policy should not be decided by emotion.

Even the emotion of a doctor.

You love to say, “Quack - nutcase.” But there’s a doctor on the faculty of Harvard Med School, who one of his colleagues described as one of the top 3 people in the world on vaccine reactions.

He got thrown OFF the CDC advisory committee, for wanting to continue with the JNJ jabs, and not pause them. Got that?

He says that these jabs should be reserved for the over-70 crowd, since they need them the most, AND that they suffer far fewer coagulopathies from the jabs, than younger people. He says there is no medical reason to give these shots to teenagers.

But Pfizer said that they see the injections and boosters as a significant source of revenue going forward, even as they are pushing to give the injections to children as young as 12.

So what dosage of Ivermectin did he take? How early did he take it? Did he take Zinc, Vitamins A, C and D? Did he take some form of mycin to go with it?

Thanks for your joke of an account. Ivermectin must be deployed early against Covid. Not 13 days in and in the ICU like your patient. It is also a fine prophylactic against Cov-19

I didn't catch that part the first time I read the rant. One problem is that most people aren't all that great at math, especially if you throw some uncommon metric units in there. They might know what mm, ltr and kph mean, sort of but when it comes to Ivermectin...

Pill form for human use -- 200 mcg of ivermectin per kg of body weight

Horse paste -- dose rate of 91 mcg ivermectin per lb (200 mcg/kg) body weight

So not only do they have to figure out what mcg is but they have to convert kg of body weight to lbs of body weight. I've also seen pill form that used mg instead of mcg and then they would have that to convert as well. The chances of avg Joe getting that right are pretty slim. Then of course there are other items in the protocol, like an antibiotic and various vitamins. Sounds like this guy might have gotten a little (or maybe a lot) of horse paste but that's all. Sad part is that if he had internet savvy, he could have bought the Ivermectin + antibiotic as a kit with correct dosages. The rest can be had over the counter at the local pharmacy.
