The vaccines are unproven, that’s why they have to have an emergency waiver.

Let’s get real.

“Further studies need to be done to show Ivermectin has utility in the treatment of COVID-19,” said UNMC Medical Director of Infectious Disease Dr. Mark Rupp.
******************************************************************************************
Well, it’s been 18 months so where the heck are the studies? And how come there’s no CDC protocols for outpatient treatment?

There’s some protocols published in Medical Journals, and protocols that various Doctors have posted for people to see. But no CDC protocols.

The lack of treatment is a big gap, and it is criminal that the CDC has no advice other than well, there is no proof of anything, so just go home until you get so sick your lips turn blue.

And Quackster Fauci even admitted that he takes Vitamin D—but even that doesn’t appear to fit with the CDC’s requirements for advice on treatment.

INSANITY to continue this medical tyranny. We already know that masks, distancing, shutdowns don’t work - they didn’t work on a less contagious variant so why repeat that failure?

Protocols for treatments are needed. And a vaccine based on inactivated virus needs to be developed. The mRNA just ain’t ready for prime time.

And the CDC failure Quackster Fraudci needs to be fired, arrested and tried for his part in developing this bio weaponized virus.

It’s a mistake to expect those things from government. Society should completely ignore the CDC.

So, unlike Fauci, he’s a real and practicing doctor.

But hey, what the ‘eff does he know?

Your point?

It seems to work. It’s cheap.

After judge orders hospital to use experimental Covid-19 treatment, woman recovers

So controversial.

What’s interesting about Ivermectin, it shows great promise as a medicine for quite a few things without regard to anything ChiCom Coof related.

The discovery of it is an interesting one, it was a serendipity story. After doing a deep dive on it, a little due diligence, I came to the conclusion I would probably want to take some even if “the virus” had never happened. It has some potentially amazing characteristics that are being studied apart from its known applications.

It poses very little risk and millions and millions of doses have been administered. I guess (I’m not an MD) it is contraindicated for people on blood thinners. That’s about it, though.

It’s a little too cute by half that everyone seems to start screeching that “it hasn’t been tested!!!” when it’s even brought up.

If you’re dying, what is the problem with trying something that can’t hurt and might help? It’s readily available and inexpensive.

I will say it slowly.

Use Ivermectin the way that people who use it successfully use it.

Whatever it is and how it’s mixed, it’s simple, effective and won’t cause as yet, unidentified side effects. Nor will the cocktail cause blood clots and fatal heart issues.

Every time you turn around, you hear or see “Fauci Says”.

I do ignore the advice, cause it ain’t worth a plugged nickel.

But no it is not too much to expect competence. Toss the incompetent SOBs out, and arrest Fauci and his collaborators.

You don’t have to say it slowly, clown. I don’t see anyone on here asking you for medical advice.

You’re encouraging people to consider Ivermectin. About the same thing I’m doing.

>> Others medical experts says drug is unproven

But blowing out the lungs worked pretty well for the 3x payout.

I’ve read that the despicable Fauci tried to be a hero by being able to claim responsibility for an AIDS cure but couldn’t ever achieve it and that maybe the pandemic he participated in causing was his last attempt to be a hero by being in charge of the drug that saved everyone. (Doesn’t appear to be working this time either.)

If this is true then he’s sort of like a person who starts a fire and then tries to be a hero for putting it out.
