Hydroxy hell: The deadly attack on a long-proven COVID treatment

Sadly, many people have every reason to mistrust science, medicine and the public health system because of the endless pandemic lies.

The biggest, long-lasting lie is the attack on the use of hydroxychloroquine for early COVID home/outpatient treatment. It was always more about politics than medicine and health care.

The chief protagonist in the battle against HCQ is Anthony Fauci, the darling of big media. The details of this travesty were laid out in my book, "Pandemic Blunder."

Recently, a physician in India made this fascinating observation: "In the 1985-86 edition of 'Harrison's Principles of Internal Medicine' [a highly recommended book for students in medical school], Dr. Fauci wrote that HCQ worked as an anti-viral agent despite being an anti-malarial drug. There was no COVID-19 back then. HCQ's anti-viral properties were known."

Did Fauci forget what he knew 35 years ago? He had no hesitancy in ignoring a mountain of evidence for the effectiveness of HCQ against the COVID virus. Maybe that can be explained by the fact so ignored by big media that Fauci is not a trained virologist. As a loyal friend of the drug industry, he has shown no skill in following any science that conflicts with that industry's interests.

This reference to such an early work explains why physicians in Europe and the U.S. in the early months of 2020, when the pandemic was just exploding, thought to use hydroxychloroquine. Dr. Vladimir Zelenko in New York became famous for his cocktail based on HCQ that worked to safely cure his mostly elderly patients hit with the COVID virus. In France, Dr. Didier Raoult was one of the earliest to discover its usefulness. He treated over 1,000 patients with azithromycin and hydroxychloroquine, and almost 99% recovered.

Fauci will be in hell.

Unless he repents, a very unlikely possibly.

Why would everyone in the world have to take one tablet a day for a year?

The fact that you can multiply some big numbers together to get an even bigger number is irrelevant.

Try your numbers again with ivermectin, which is darned near free and only needs a few doses.

A pittance.

This guy had one item on his agenda: Get rid of Trump!

[jonrick46]

Don’t get me going with ivermectin. It is twice as expensive as HCQ.

[Jacquerie]

Further proof of the abasement of everything the rats touch.

Who believes anything from the feds anymore?

Easy prediction: When China invades Taiwan it will be Trump’s fault.

[DuncanWaring]

Doesn’t require daily use.

[DuncanWaring]

Actually, the ivermectin I bought costs less per dose than what you’re quoting for HCQ.

[jonrick46]

Did you buy your ivermectin on a coupon special? Did you get a doctor’s prescription for it?

[DuncanWaring]

Nope.

Just walked into Tractor Supply, grabbed a tube, put my cash on the counter and walked out.

[DuncanWaring]

Five bucks for a 6-7 dose tube.

** Yeah, but if you have one or more existing, effective treatments, then you can’t emergency authorize experimental drugs for mass distribution and use, right? **

plus you'd have to figure out another way to cull the herd...

Follow the money. Those who will be providing him with his grants don't need an inexpensive generic competing with their costly "vaccines".

Speaking of … I wonder what their target numbers and goals for herd culling might be these days.

Ayers had a number in mind ‘back in the day’, but that was a long time ago and I wonder if their numbers have been adjusted upward over time.
