In 2018, NPR thought Ivermectin was so harmless they advocated giving large doses to humans to poison mosquitoes that bite them.

Imagine this: A pesky mosquito sips some of your blood. Hours later, the blood-sucker drops dead, poisoned by the very blood it just slurped down.

That may sound too good to be true, but it's a tantalizing possibility, according to research published this week in the journal The Lancet Infectious Diseases. The study points to a potential new tool to fight malaria: the medication ivermectin. Studies conducted in the 2000s, including one in 2010, show that malaria-carrying mosquitoes die after feeding on individuals who have ingested the drug.

.........

In their study, the researchers demonstrate that three high doses of ivermectin make human blood deadly to mosquitoes for at least 28 days after the start of treatment. This high dose of ivermectin was also well-tolerated with few side effects.

Humblegunner is in Texas.
A Red State.

Perhaps in a Blue state it might be difficult.

But even in Michigan I’m not having issues getting what I need or feel like I need.

I live in NYS.

I know people who have been told by their medical providers that are no treatments for CoupFlu unless you end up hospitalized.

That is a bald-faced lie.

I got my prescription from Push Health last week and they sent it to a Walmart near me to be filled. The cost for 98 3mg pills was $465. If you go to Goodrx and get a coupon you can knock that price down to $136. I was very happy with the whole process. Plus I get one refill.

A bald-faced lie??

Because people you know were told by other people.

Heard from a friend who, heard it from a friend who, heard it from another we’re all gonna die.

I have a nice cabinet filled with medications for the just in-case moments.
Have a trusting M.D. and my dogs have a trusting Vet.

You live in a very Blue State……which was my point.

Blue States seem to practice medicine differently than Red States.
Do you not understand that by now??

Florida vs New York………California vs Texas.

What did they consider a “high dose”?

NVM; found it:

“To reach these conclusions, researchers at the Jaramogi Oginga Odinga Teaching and Referral Hospital in Kenya gave 47 participants 600 micrograms of ivermectin in tablet form for three days in a row. Blood samples were obtained from these participants six times and then fed to mosquitoes in cages.

“We put the blood in an artificial membrane that mosquitoes could bite on and then watched,” Smit explains. “Most died within a week after [drinking] the blood.”

Coincidence or not, most of those countries have very low Covid infection and death rates, far below the US and most European countries.

Stop being polite and hedging THE TRUTH. The reality is that HCQ + zinc and/or ivermectin could have stopped the bioweapon cold and suppression of this TRUTH is MURDER.

I’ll assume they also get a lot of sunshine->D in equatorial Africa, as one report I’ve heard is that 96% of people in ICU with WuFlu are D deficient, so that cheap supplement can be included as well.

@ post 32 - agree there is likely a correlation, but remember if I understand correctly they have a young population. The average age of death from cv19 in the U.S. is pretty much the average life expectancy - around 78 yrs old (odd is it? - still not sure why we are forcing vaccinations and sundry mandates).

Some info on IVM

My wife contacted FLCCC and paid her money for a consult. 9 days later they returned her money saying they were too overwhelmed to talk to her.

I ordered the horse paste from Tractor Supply Aug 20. Am still waiting for it.

Ordered more horse paste from Amazon. Took 9 days to get it at ~ $35 a tube.

Started the IVM on day 3. Used an earlier protocol calling for 0.2mg/ kg. Then saw that FLCCC updated the dosing to 0.4-0.6mg/kg for 5 days and adjusted accordingly days 4+5.

Can’t say that the IVM made any difference. Maybe it did but there was no dramatic turnaround.

The Durmectin which has been pictured on this site many times is probably gone. Now you’ll probably get either Bimectin or Ivermax which is made by the same manufacturer as the Durmectin.

One tube of 1.87% horse paste contains 112 mg of IVM. That means according to the updated FLCCC guidelines, a 100kg individual will need 2 1/2 tubes spread over 5 days. (Note: the FLCCC does not endorse horsepaste)

If you’re lucky enough to have the tabs the same individual would need about 85 3mg tabs.

Everyone here knows how hard IVM is to get. If you’re planning on using it, hopefully you have sufficient on hand

Is there are difference between the paste and the pill forms????

The active ingredient (IVM) is the same but the inactive ingredients are not. One is in a gel, the other a tablet. Also, the horsepaste inactive ingredients are proprietary and not listed.

"Stop being polite and hedging THE TRUTH. The reality is that HCQ + zinc and/or ivermectin could have stopped the bioweapon cold and suppression of this TRUTH is MURDER."

Somebody got on my case from the anti-Ivermectin side the other day and wouldn't let it go; maybe that's why I didn't say it more dogmatically.

As for me, I take Vitamins C and D3, Zinc, Quercetin, L-Lysine, probiotics, and fish oil, all of which I've heard may have a help in avoiding Covid altogether or in mitigating symptoms.

I already was taking Melatonin as a sleep aid, but the other day someone pointed me to an article that raised the possibility that it might also help mitigate Covid. I also take multivitamins, COQ10, and a few other supplements for various purposes. Someone - a nurse - also recommended something called Beta Glucan, which I have on order.

“Also, the horsepaste inactive ingredients are proprietary and not listed.”

So, don’t use the paste?

" . . . if I understand correctly they have a young population."

They have a young population because they die young, about 15-22 years younger than their fellow people-of-color here in AmeriKKKa.

One of the main causes of early death is polluted drinking water, which contributes significantly to infant and child mortality, which is why some Christian groups build water wells in rural areas of Africa to provide safe water.

The fact of a younger population with fewer of the comorbidities common here might be partially offset by the fact that many Africans have little or no access to modern health care.

@ post 55. I have a similar regimen. (since I will not take any of the vaccines). I include NAC - have read much that it can help the body defend against covid. Oddly enough amzn took it down shortly after - but it is still widely available.
