NAC is supposedly hard to find.

[walkingdead]

It has been said, if you put the whole world on ivermectin for a month that covid would be done for.

But as someone upthread said, you cannot scale the money nor the government with that approach.

[kiryandil]

covid vaxx billionaires gonna billion...

[libertasbella]

That’s okay, it’ll cost $85k a pill once the FDA approves it in 65 years.

[kiryandil]

Can you believe the effing vaxxtards that believe they got “free shots”?

[walkingdead]

I hear that all the time on the experimental ads. Its safe, effective, and free!

None of those are correct. The experimentals have certainly not been safe, certainly not effective, and no where near free.

[Secret Agent Man]

Hell the democrats are trying once again to ban you being able to buy vitamins and supplements without a prescription.

AGAIN.

I also read that Merck now has a drug/therapeutic that they have been working on to market for treating the RONA. New drug - better profit opportunity.

No profit motive to do anything with the existing drug.

RE: I also read that Merck now has a drug/therapeutic that they have been working on to market for treating the RONA. New drug - better profit opportunity.

Yep. The name of the drug is Molnupiravir, currently on Phase III trial. It’s an ORAL drug similar to their old product, Ivermectin.

Some suspect that it is just an updated version of Ivermectin ( but don’t quote me on this ).

[greeneyes]

Probably is, if they make a few changes, and amend the patent= hooray wonderful new profits with out the years of R & D.

BUT IVERMECTIN is not without controversy, and hence, despite the high levels of coronavirus worldwide, neither the FDA nor the World Health Organization have been willing to approve it for use in the fight against the virus.


This makes no sense, I'm not an epidemiologist, but I can read. They aren't willing to "approve" a drug that is [i]already[/i] approved? That is, what the article fails to mention, or is misleading - is they won't authorize it for "off label" use, for emergency use. You know, like they did for the mRNA, which hasn't been Approved for anything, but everybody is saying they have. Anyhoo, If someone is literally dying from Covid-19, it seems reasonable to try a medication that seems promising.


“Ivermectin is a chemical therapeutic agent, and it has significant risks associated with it,” he said in a previous interview. “We should be very cautious about using this type of medication to treat a viral disease that the vast majority of the public is going to recover from even without this treatment.”


If the vast majority of the public is going to recover without any treatment, why is everyone running around demanding mandatory experimsntal vaccines and destroying economies and generally being assholes? Glad we got this cleared up.


All CLEAR EVERYBODY!! GET BACK TO WORK!!

Thank you for all your pings :)

I don’t get this?
Please explain :)

The FDA recently suggested that NAC should not be an off the shelf product. I had bought some last summer from Amazon, but they don’t sell it anymore.

“Flick of the pen, law of the land - pretty cool.”

[joshua c]

cant get a vaccine EUA if there are approved therapies

so they poo poo any possible therapies

big pharma wants big money

[catnipman]

so where are all the fake doctor trolls on FR trying to trash studies like this and promote killer, experimental vaccines?

haven’t seen much from them lately ...

Years ago , the anti-Parkinson drug amantadine (Symmetrel) was noted to reduce flu symptoms. A minor modification of the structure led to the patent for Flumadine ( rimantidine).

“Rimantadine Hydrochloride is the hydrochloride salt form of rimantadine, a cyclic amine and alpha-methyl derivative of amantadine with antiviral activity. Although the exact mechanism of action of rimantadine is not understood, this agent appears to exert its antiviral effect against influenza A virus by interfering with the function of the transmembrane domain of the viral M2 protein, thereby preventing the uncoating of the virus and subsequent release of infectious viral nucleic acids into the cytoplasm of infected cells.)https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/compound/Rimantadine-hydrochloride

Not pointing this out to advocate for Flumadine in treatment of COVID, but to show another example of a drug origianally purposed for a disease far afield from a viral infection that is clinincally useful, and probably would have helped hundreds of thousands last year whose influenza was misdiagnosed as COVID by the defective CDC PCR test that is now being withdrawn.
