RE: People can use the vaccine and or ivermectin as they wish. It’s an individual decision

That’s my point — IT’s *NOT* an individual decision. If it were, the government would not be actively suppressing and threatening doctors who believe in prescribing Ivermectin to people who FREELY want it.

Look, I am not an anti-vaxxer and I believe that the benefits of taking the vaccines far outweigh the documented risks ( blood clots, thrombosis, etc. ), but I have been on the Ivermectin i-Mask protocol given by the Frontline Covid Critical Care Alliance for 4 months now. No side effects whatsoever, and I still maintain the usual precautions like social distancing and avoiding large crowds.

My problem is I can’t find a doctor who will prescribe Ivermectin in my state and had to use telemedicine to consult with doctors in other states to prescribe it for me. Every doctor in my state that I spoke to either tells me that they’re not convince that the data no matter how positive is enough, or even if they were convinced, are reluctant to prescribe it for fear of being delicensed.

This state of affairs is not healthy for a country that calls itself the “Land of the Free” ( we’re not ).

RE: Credit to Dr. “Zev” Zelenko in New York who is dying of cancer.

Dr. Zelenko has actually recovered from his recent bout in the hospital and still active in his Telegram channel ( I subscribe to it to follow him ). God bless the courageous doctor.

Yes, HCQ is both an ACE-2 inhibitor and a Zinc ionosphere.

As an ACE-2 inhibitor, HCQ barrs entry to cells by pathogens such as Malaria parasites or viruses such as SARS-COV-2. Eventually pathogens in the plasma are eliminated in the urine. Pathogens already in cells will multiply inside the cell but when flushed back into the plasma, there are very few open cells for them to enter.

Zinc brings recovery more quickly as Zinc molecules block a virus’s use of the cell’s machinery to replicate.

Whether it works is irrelevant. This is science. And science demands to know how Trump feels about it.

The doctor also has freedom whether to prescribe or not based in their experience, reading of the data, etc. As ivermectin is available over the counter at any vet supply no one who wants access to it is denied. Same with telemedicine I have.not experienced any bullying to use or not use it but I do not see outpatients Just because something is popular on the internet does not mean any physician has to prescribe it for anyone that wants it.

Are you sure about this?

Are you sure that if I can find a doctor who believes in the Ivermectin data in New York, he won’t be threatened with delicensing?

I’ve PERSONALLY HEARD a few doctors tell me this.

I don’t live in New York so I don’t know what their state board is doing. If they are threatening people they should be exposed and shame on them. Personally the only threat qi have had is pulling my license if I am caught not wearing a face diaper or following public health orders. State licensing boards tend to have totalitarian complexes I don’t know what can be done to change that.

My point is I am not pro or con ivermectin I personally think the jury is out but would not condemn anyone who takes it. I am pro vaccine and grateful to have it but would not force it on anyone. It will be years til we have answers and humility is needed on all sides. If anyone thinks they have the answers they don’t. Even if the read it on the internet last night. What I wish would stop is the hysteria, and crazy conspiracy theories.

Well I DO and that’s EXACTLY what is happening.

Dr. Zelenko is the only doctor willing to buck the trend but he has powerful friends supporting him ( like President Trump ) and even he has to watch his back.

Such state of affairs is NOT HEALTHY.

I do not believe in coercing doctors to prescribe Ivermectin if they don’t believe in it, by the same token, I don’t believe in a system FORCING DOCTORS NOT TO PRESCRIBE IT even if they believe that it will work.

This is not the America that I want to live in.

Ionophore not ionosphere

Autocorrect is often auto-error.

Hi,

Jury is still out, but we will see.....

Ivermectin is currently being studied in humans for treating COVID-19, but the results are not yet known. Many of these studies are looking at ivermectin as a complementary drug used with other treatments. Researchers recently showed that ivermectin, a drug used to treat parasitic infections, reduced the growth of SARS-CoV-2 in the laboratory setting. It is not known whether it is safe or helpful for this disease. Sometimes new treatment ideas turn out to help, and sometimes they are actually proven to be harmful. The best way to learn how to treat COVID-19 is to conduct randomized controlled clinical trials.

I have used it numerous times. After enough experiences yoj see what it really does. So my knowledge is evolved. I still am outraged at any hospital not allowing a physician to practice how he or she sees fit

And thank you for being a voice of reason amid the name calling and hysteria. It is refreshing

Excellent interview, with Dr Peter McCollough, at link....

https://rumble.com/vg6dcd-peter-mccullough-interview.html

The Website Peter McCullough mentions is AAPSOnline.org

In this interview with The New American magazine Senior Editor Alex Newman, the internationally renowned Dr. Peter McCullough—the doctor with the most citations in the National Library of Medicine on these topics—warned that the COVID shot was already causing thousands of deaths and tens of thousands of hospitalizations that have been recorded.

And that’s just the tip of the iceberg, he warned.

In normal circumstances, 50 deaths reported to VAERS would result in a drug being taken off market immediately. In the case of the COVID shots, thousands have already been reported, and yet the mass vaccination programs continue to be pushed.

Dr. McCullough, a professor of medicine who developed a globally acclaimed and highly successful COVID treatment protocol, also emphasized that there have been many unnecessary deaths as a result of policy decisions made at various levels of government.

(ransomnote posted a thread, with link to this interview, a couple of days ago....it’s worth the time to watch!)
