‘Don’t do it’: Dr. Fauci warns against using Ivermectin to treat or prevent COVID-19
Boston.com ^ | 08/30/2021 | Julia Taliesin

Federal health agencies and officials across the country are warning people not to take ivermectin — a drug used to treat parasites in livestock — to treat and prevent COVID-19.

According to The Boston Globe, poison control centers in at least a dozen states have reported an increase in calls related to ivermectin ingestion. In an interview with CNN, Dr. Anthony Fauci said there’s no evidence it works, and that it’s more likely to cause harm.

“Don’t do it; there’s no evidence whatsoever that it works and it could potentially have toxicity… with people who have gone to poison control centers because they’ve taken the drug at a ridiculous dose and wind up getting sick,” he said. “There’s no clinical evidence that indicates that this works.”

Dr. Megan Ranney, a professor of emergency medicine at Brown University, told CNN that vaccines and monoclonal antibodies are the only confirmed methods of preventing COVID-19. Ivermectin, she said, is not a “miracle cure.”

“I want to be really clear, there is no data supporting that ivermectin prevents or cures COVID-19,” she said. “Unfortunately, the promotion for this drug has spread like wildfire among conspiracy theorists and people who are out to make a profit and we’re seeing people buy it from vets and take it themselves with really serious consequences. Another example of the very real harm of misinformation.”

Ivermectin first received attention last year when a study showed that ivermectin inhibited the replication of COVID-19 “in vitro,” or in a laboratory setting. In April 2020, the FDA wrote that the type of study was “commonly used in the early stages of drug development” and that ivermectin was not given to people or animals.

The vials are clearly graduated based on weight with 250 pound major increments, and minor increments between each major. I seriously doubt anyone is stupid enough to take an entire 1250 pound regimen.

I don’t think you are paying attention to the data. India (except for Kerala who outlawed Ivermectin) has beat Covid because of Ivermectin. Central Africa has had virtually NO Covid because of Ivermectin, while South Africa is being inundated because of mandates against ivermectin

Who in the world is still listening to the korporate shill Mr. FauChi?

That troll's authority ended once he illegally funded gain-of-function bioweapons.

I did the research and have been taking Ivermectin for over 9 months with no ill effects - the only “cold” I had may very well have been a mild case of the bug - very slight decrease in smell and taste, one day medium headache, minor nasal congestion and two days of “loose” movements - but not debilitating diarrhea.
4 days of slightly lower energy and a couple mild aches but no fever and I could have conducted daily business if I wished.
I know a fully-jabbed person who lost all smell and taste and is hurting more than I did even though he’s 10 years my junior.

I followed that thread - it was also a prophylactic dose, not the treatment dose (day 1 and day 3)

iMATH protocol is .2mg/kg for prophylactic use, to .4mg/kg post exposure (day 1 and 3).

For treatment it is .4 to .6/kg per day until recovered.

So, according to my calculations- the treatment recommended for a 63kg person (140 lbs) is almost 26mg to 38mg. Check my math.

The studies here have a wide range of doses used in their studies https://ivmmeta.com

The doctor here who says he has not seen it work only prescribed 12mg (irregardless of weight), for a handful of friends/family, for treatment

I have pills but have this as a backup. Does anyone happen to know how many mg of ivermectin are in each increment?

If those scientific studies Fauci is always demanding, double blind with placebo, etc., were used on his vaccines, then the vaccines would not pass currently. The break through cases alone would break them.

“So, according to my calculations- the treatment recommended for a 63kg person (140 lbs) is almost 26mg to 38mg. Check my math.”

Math is fine. 200 micrograms per kilogram means about 12 milligrams for a 130 lb. person. In the case of treatment, if using 400 to 600, you get numbers right in line with what you posted.

(p.s., I’m old enough to remember when doctors were allowed to use the drugs they thought best and actually prescribed the doses to take)

It may be true that there are contracts with Pfizer that have some sort of performance clause based on total number of people vaccinated. I don’t know. I know there are an AWFUL lot of Chinese people on some of the boards at Pfizer.

It’s clear that this phase of the experiment is to get as many of the right people vaccinated as possible. I don’t know what’s going to happen to the people who somehow avoided being vaccinated, despite all the mandates.

Kissinger was right - scare the hell out of enough people and they will gladly hand over their rights.

No idea what happens next. I hope it isn’t a fulfillment of the Georgia guidestones. My company just mandated the vaccine, or be terminated.

IMHO, we should have been using theraputics (I am being told by my computer that I have misspelled that word; but, I cannot think of how else one would spell this.)

Therapeutic (I got pretty close and then right clicked the red squiggly underlined word and my computer suggested the proper spelling)

I have been using as a preventative if exposed and have a friend who was with 8 vaxed people for a month who all came down and treated 2 people for two weeks while using Ivermectin and never came down.

Ahh but if they look at the tube and see that it's only 1.83% - 1.87% strength, then they might do just that.

“I want to be really clear, there is no data supporting...”

[SNIP]

Any time a government official says I want to be really clear, my antennae go up...and in this twit’s case, I’ve already heard so many lies I don’t believe a word he’s ever said to begin with.

“You’re not a horse, just stop it...”

Yeah but I have a 140lb horse, little bitty guy...

just me and the pygmy pony, over by the dental floss bush...

maybe in this case it should be mental floss?

Every prescriptive compound is uses to treat animals. Invermectin was certified for human use in 1987. Time for the CDC to stop lying and be held accountable for following the dictates of the CCP.
