L.L. Thanks for posting this info on Ivermectin!

You may have looked at this at some point?? (May have been posted at sometime by you Ransomnote?)

https://www.drugs.com/ivermectin.html

(This comment was instructive!)

Snip...”The uncertainty in some of the ivermectin trials for COVID-19 is due to

serious risk of bias
serious risk of imprecision.

There are far fewer randomized controlled trials (RCT) for ivermectin compared to other COVID treatments. The RCT included multiple small trials, that had fewer patients enrolled and had fewer events recorded.”

One study: (Snip....)

“ICON Clinical Study Results

(Use of Ivermectin Is Associated With Lower Mortality in Hospitalized Patients With Coronavirus Disease 2019: The Ivermectin in COVID Nineteen Study)

The ICON study, which was a multihospital retrospective cohort study, involved 280 patients, 173 patients were treated with at least one oral dose of 200 μg/kg ivermectin and 107 patients had no ivermectin treatment. Patients could also be treated with hydroxychloroquine, azithromycin, or both.

The results from this study showed that:

Overall mortality was significantly lower for the ivermectin group (15%) compared to the usual treatment group (25.2%) using figures from the unmatched cohort.
Mortality for the subgroup of patients who had severe pulmonary involvement was lower in the ivermectin treatment group (38.8%) compared to the usual treatment group (80.7%) from the unmatched cohort.
There was no significant difference between the two treatment groups regarding successful extubation rates of mechanically ventilated patients. Successful extubation is when the patient has had the breathing tube that has been used for mechanical ventilation removed and they can successfully breath on their own.
Length of hospital stay was not significantly different between the ivermectin treatment group and the regular treatment group....Snip”

2nd study (snip...)

“IVERCOR-COVID-19 trial

Ivermectin to prevent hospitalizations in patients with COVID-19 (IVERCOR-COVID19) a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial

The IVERCOR-COVID-19 trial was a randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled trial involving 501 patients. The aim of this trial was to determine whether ivermectin treatment could prevent hospitalization of individuals with early COVID-19. One group was treated with ivermectin plus standard treatment and the other group was treated with placebo with standard treatment. Patients were not allowed to take hydroxychloroquine, chloroquine or antiviral drugs.

The results of this trial were published on 2 July 2021 showed that:

The percentage of patients that needed hospitalization was 5.6% in the ivermectin treatment group and 8.4% in the placebo group, but the difference between the two groups was not statistically significantly
There was no statistically significant difference in median time from patient enrollment to hospitalization between the treatment groups. The ivermectin treatment group median time to hospitalization was 3.5 days and placebo group 3 days.
There was no statistically significant difference in mean time from study enrolment until a patient was put on invasive mechanical ventilatory support (MVS). The ivermectin treatment group was 5.25 days compared to the placebo group which was 10 days.

The limitations in this study was noted as a:

low percentage of hospitalized patients
The mean dose of ivermectin was 192.37 μg/kg/day which was below the dose proposed as probably being effective.”

NOTE THE LAST LINE. “BELOW THE DOSE PROPOSED AS PROBABLY BEING EFFECTIVE”! Also note “Patients were not allowed to take hydroxychloroquine, chloroquine or antiviral drugs.”

There are far fewer randomized controlled trials (RCT) for ivermectin compared to other COVID treatments.

Here are 60 trials of ivermectin:

I didn’t see those particular studies so thank you. I’m aware that studies conducted in G7 countries have been as deeply flawed as the IVERCOR-COVID-19 trial. The people in charge of the studies have obviously been given instructions, probably by big pharma, to conduct them in such a way as to guarantee failure and ensure that ivermectin never becomes an approved treatment. They accomplish this by using test subjects less likely to respond to treatment and then using clinically insignificant dosing guidelines.

Jab-takeup and promotion is a priority and nothing can get in the way of continuing its emergency use authorization. A proven very cheap and effective alternative would certainly jeopardize the jab EUA so authorized trials are deliberately designed for failure. It’s clear to me that the doctors conducting the studies are being coerced because they added the qualifier “The mean dose of ivermectin was 192.37 μg/kg/day which was below the dose proposed as probably being effective.” They know the trial is rigged but are being forced to make it fail, likely threatened with loss of livelihood. The best they can do is report their results and insert the caveat.

I’ve been reading about the significantly more illustrative, effective and truthful results of widespread ivermectin use in India and Mexico following their early vaccination efforts. Covid exploded after they pulled the ivermectin prophylaxis and started vaccinating, and their medical communities were unable to handle all the emergencies. They had their instructions from WHO to their leadership to discontinue ivermectin use, but their reality was too much to handle so they re-introduced it, at least temporarily. Hospitals emptied and people recovered. Reports of their success with ivermectin were squelched but that cat was already out of the bag because people like Dr. McCullough and the Frontline Doctors were talking about it.

I mentioned it before and will say again that we’re watching a heavily-rigged shell game and the stakes are human lives. The criminality and breach of ethics is breathtaking. These last 18 months have been eye-opening for me because I had no idea how deeply big pharma had infiltrated and corrupted the medical industry, from the FDA, to medical schools, to physician associations, to research, all the way down to the individual family practice. Q was right when he said this is bigger than we knew and I also understand now why this needed to play out as it did. I’d have been a bit skeptical of big pharma’s evil intent and complete control had I not witnessed it myself these last 18 months. Okay Q, we get it now. Can we end the Show and Tell and clean it all up now?

I’m going to read the links you posted. Thank you.
