Ivermectin does not work. And in many cases delays care. Let me help you with some real medical advice. Freepers. If you choose not to be vaccinated, if you should become with Covid without delay begin decadron six mg a day and without delay find an infusion center to receive Regeneron. They are in all major cities and any primary care or specialist physician can write for this actual life saving infusion.

Otherwise you are gambling with your own life listening to people who have never practiced medicine tell you how to treat a disease. I have used ivermectin in the treatment of Covid. It is neither a cure nor a particularly effective control of the disease.

And I have not been paid a nickel by big pharma. I just don’t want to see someone else die a needless death because the believed something to not be entirely accurate but certainly well promoted

— Ivermectin does not work —

Many studies and actual frontline doctors disagree with you. I don’t know what your game here is. If you are actually a gas doctor, an anesthesiologist, then it is unlikely you are treating any patients yourself for this virus. Sorry, I simply don’t believe you.

Thank you for continuing to do the Lord’s work by encouraging people to get monoclonal antibodies since that treatment is something that people sometimes have to bring up themselves to their well meaning but not always up to date primary care doctors and the window is so limited. You no doubt have helped prevent several FReepers and lurkers from advancing to severe COVID.

One would think that the fact that Trump made such a quick turnaround would already be encouragement enough for members of a conservative political forum to pursue that option, but then, I guess one could say similar about the vaccines he fully supports as well and we all know how that discussion can go.

I absolutely agree with regeneron. The monoclonals are amazing. We use a combo at my facility.
The best thing is to get vaccinated. We are up to 30+ again in hospital. Younger and all but 2 unvaccinated. The 2 are not in icu.
We had 80 at our peak in January.
I do this for a living. Don’t get money from pharm and no bonuses for covid diagnosis. Make your own choices but you have been informed by all sides.

...if you should become with Covid without delay begin decadron six mg a day and without delay...

Is prednisone a suitable substitute for decadron?

Thanks for taking time provide "...some real medical advice..."

As Phil found out the hard way. He took ivermectin, D, zinc and other "cures" people push. Yet he's in ICU, fighting for his life.
