In December, I wrote about a Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee hearing focused on testimony about potential early and outpatient treatments for COVID-19. A group of doctors detailed their research on ivermectin, a generic anti-parasitic drug:
The medication being discussed in this hearing is ivermectin. It has not been studied as much as HCQ, but the results to date are encouraging. The witnesses have studies covering over 4,000 patients in various settings but cannot obtain a review through the NIH. They asked for the committee’s assistance with this and noted that funding for additional studies is not readily available. Money to study the efficacy of current generic medications in new applications is difficult to obtain. That is a tragic fact, as these medications are less expensive and more readily available.
During the hearing, one of the physicians stated that with the results the researchers have seen to date, he would consider it malpractice not to provide this medication early in a COVID-19 infection. A website that tracks medications studies in COVID-19 has summarized a meta-analysis of the research to date for ivermectin:
If you look at the graph, you can see 19 random control trials (RCTs). Yet the NIH website says this:
The COVID-19 Treatment Guidelines Panel (the Panel) has determined that currently there are insufficient data to recommend either for or against the use of ivermectin for the treatment of COVID-19. Results from adequately powered, well-designed, and well-conducted clinical trials are needed to provide more specific, evidence-based guidance on the role of ivermectin for the treatment of COVID-19.

Why?
Perhaps because the FDA has legal stipulations it must meet prior to being able to grant an EUA authorization for a vaccine. One of those legal requirements is that there cannot be any affective available and approved alternative. HCQ met all three of those it is criminalThat they barred people from having access to HCQ just so the FDA could allow the vaccine to be used under the emergency use authorization.
What you say is true, but a vaccine is different from a therapeutic. There are both therapies and vaccines for influenza. They could have had both for CV19.
RE: Jeez. It’s all Over The Counter, if you know where to look.
Can you get Ivermectin without a prescription?
Horse wormer paste
Profit and control.
If you and your doctor can handle your medical care without any outside assistance the FedMob becomes useless to you and loses all leverage over you.
Thanks
Yes. Feed store. Ivermectin paste, for horses.
Inexpensive and Generic should be your first clues.
