After judge orders hospital to use experimental Covid-19 treatment, woman recovers
The Buffalo News ^ | January 15, 2021 | Dan Herbeck

A judge ordered Millard Fillmore Suburban Hospital last week to give a Covid-19 patient an experimental treatment, and her family and attorneys say they believe that saved 80-year-old Judith Smentkiewicz's life.

The drug Ivermectin – a pill sometimes used to treat children with head lice or to rid dogs and cats of worms – is not yet approved by the federal government for use against Covid-19. But Smentkiewicz's son and daughter call it “a miracle drug” in their court papers.

So do her attorneys, Ralph C. Lorigo and Jon F. Minear.

“This lady was on a ventilator, literally on her deathbed, before she was given this drug,” Lorigo told The Buffalo News about Smentkiewicz, a Cheektowaga resident. “As far as we’re concerned, the judge’s order saved this woman’s life.”

Lorigo said one doctor at the hospital allowed the patient to be given the drug, but after she had been given one dose, another doctor at the hospital refused to allow further doses. He said family members went to court to force the hospital to resume treatment with Ivermectin. State Supreme Court Judge Henry J. Nowak sided with them....

So judges now know more than doctors about treatment?

If governors can practice medicine by banning treatments (HCQ and zinc) for an entire state, surely a judge can require a specific treatment for an individual patient!
Bring Out Your Dead

Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.

The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.

The false positive rate was 100%.

At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.

*sigh* Such is life, and death...

Quarantine the sick. Protect the vulnerable. Free everyone else.

Never knew there was a hospital named after Millard Fillmore. Very cool.

The judge is a political puppet of the right wing and probably has an altar to Donald Trump in his house. Under the new regime he will be hunted down like the counter-revolutionary mad dog he is.< /s>

The administration of the new ‘vaccines’ for CoVId-19 should be only after a course of prophylactic treatment of HCQ, Ivermectin, zinc, AZ / budesonide.

Their head of aenesthesia is a jerk. I refused to take off wedding ring for 20 minute procedure. When the underlings couldnt change my mind, he comes in with the cutter to intimidate. I said no..i think everyone here now knows i better come out with it right where it is now. He walked away telling them to document “patient refuses”

Glad the womans family fought for her.

The Constitution does not give government authority to ban drugs or make them require prescription.

Ivermectin should be available over the counter in the same way as aspirin.

This is quite interesting. I’ve seen people on lung cancer boards advocating for this drug.

Please watch and read the following.
The CDC, NIH, WHO have suppressed an effective early treatment of covid. You need to petition you governors to fix this. Ivermectin has been on the table since the first tests early this year from Australia. Dr Cory has testified before the Senate twice now. Also attached is latest from India and EVMS Dr Marik.

To the Governor of this country, get your heads out of your ass and fix this... The people in DC will not.

How India did it...

If you can put this in front of your governor, please do so...

I am puting this out as much as I can, my version of an echo, feel free to copy at will...

Now from the NIH, on 14 Jan, need more studies...

“So judges now know more than doctors about treatment?”

OBVIOUSLY in this case, the judge did better understand what was needed.

(which doesn’t surprise me one bit)

I’m curious, what do you base that on?
