India's Ivermectin Blackout: News of India's defeat of the Delta variant should be common knowledge. Yet, for some reason, we are not allowed to talk about it.

Ivermectin Wins in India

News of India's defeat of the Delta variant should be common knowledge. It is just about as obvious as the nose on one's face. It is so clear when one looks at the graphs that no one can deny it.

Yet, for some reason, we are not allowed to talk about it. Thus, for example, Wikipedia cannot mention the peer-reviewed meta-analyses by Dr. Tess Lawrie or Dr. Pierre Kory published in the American Journal of Therapeutics.

https://www.thedesertreview.com/opinion/columnists/wikipedia-and-a-pint-of-gin/article_22ffa0d8-dde9-11eb-be75-d7b0b1f2ff67.html

Wikipedia is not allowed to publish the recent meta-analysis on Ivermectin authored by Dr. Andrew Hill. Furthermore, it is not allowed to say anything concerning www.ivmmeta.com showing the 61 studies comprising 23,000 patients which reveal up to a 96% reduction in death [prophylaxis] with Ivermectin.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk%3AIvermectin

One can see the bias in Wikipedia by going on the "talk" pages for each subject and reading about the fierce attempts of editors to add these facts and the stone wall refusals by the "senior" editors who have an agenda. And that agenda is not loyalty to your health.

The easy way to read the “talk” page on any Wikipedia subject is to click the top left “talk” button. Anyone can then review the editors’ discussions.

There is a blackout on any conversation about how Ivermectin beat COVID-19 in India. When I discussed the dire straits that India found itself in early this year with 414,000 cases per day, and over 4,000 deaths per day, and how that evaporated within five weeks of the addition of Ivermectin, I am often asked, "But why is there no mention of that in the news?"

Yes, exactly. Ask yourself why India’s success against the Delta variant with Ivermectin is such a closely guarded secret by the NIH and CDC. Second, ask yourself why no major media outlets reported this fact, but instead, tried to confuse you with false information by saying the deaths in India are 10 times greater than official reports.

https://www.npr.org/sections/goatsandsoda/2021/07/20/1018438334/indias-pandemic-death-toll-estimated-at-about-4-million-10-times-the-official-co

Perhaps NPR is trying so hard because NPR is essentially a government mouthpiece. The US government is “all-in” with vaccines with the enthusiasm of a 17th century Catholic Church “all-in” with a Geocentric Model of the Universe disputing Galileo. Claiming that India’s numbers are inaccurate might distract from the overwhelming success of Ivermectin.

But in the end, the truth matters. It mattered in 1616, and it matters in 2021.


The graphs and data from the Johns Hopkins University CSSE database do not lie. On the contrary, they provide a compelling trail of truth that no one can dispute, not even the NIH, CDC, FDA, and WHO.

Just as Galileo proved with his telescope that the earth was NOT the center of the Universe in 1616; today, the data from India shows that Ivermectin is effective, much more so than the vaccines. It not only prevents death, but it also prevents COVID infections, and it also is effective against the Delta Variant.

In 1616, you could not make up the telescopic images of Jupiter and its orbiting moons, nor could you falsify the crescent-shaped images of Venus and Mercury. These proved that the earth was NOT the center of the Universe – a truth the Catholic Church could not allow.

Likewise, the massive drop in cases and deaths in India to almost nothing after the addition of Ivermectin proved the drug's effectiveness. This is a truth that the NIH, CDC, and FDA cannot allow because it would endanger the vaccine policy.

Never mind that Ivermectin would save more lives with much less risk, much less cost, and it would end the pandemic quickly.

Let us look at the burgundy-colored graph of Uttar Pradesh. First, allow me to thank Juan Chamie, a highly-respected Cambridge-based data analyst, who created this graph from the JHU CSSE data. Uttar Pradesh is a state in India that contains 241 million people. The United States’ population is 331 million people. Therefore, Uttar Pradesh can be compared to the United States, with 2/3 of our population size.

This data shows how Ivermectin knocked their COVID-19 cases and deaths - which we know were Delta Variant - down to almost zero within weeks. A population comparable to the US went from about 35,000 cases and 350 deaths per day to nearly ZERO within weeks of adding Ivermectin to their protocol.

By comparison, the United States is the lower graph. On August 5, here in the good ol’ USA, blessed with the glorious vaccines, we have 127,108 new cases per day and 574 new deaths.

Let us look at the August 5 numbers from Uttar Pradesh with 2/3 of our population. Uttar Pradesh, using Ivermectin, had a total of 26 new cases and exactly THREE deaths. The US without Ivermectin has precisely 4889 times as many daily cases and 191 times as many deaths as Uttar Pradesh with Ivermectin.

It is not even close. Countries do orders of magnitude better WITH Ivermectin. It might be comparable to the difference in travel between using an automobile versus a horse and buggy.

Uttar Pradesh on Ivermectin: Population 240 Million [4.9% fully vaccinated]

COVID Daily Cases: 26

COVID Daily Deaths: 3

The United States off Ivermectin: Population 331 Million [50.5% fully vaccinated]

COVID Daily Cases: 127,108

COVID Daily Deaths: 574

Let us look at other Ivermectin using areas of India with numbers from August 5, 2021, compiled by the JHU CSSE:

Delhi on Ivermectin: Population 31 Million [15% fully vaccinated]

COVID Daily Cases: 61

COVID Daily Deaths: 2

Uttarakhand on Ivermectin: Population 11.4 Million [15% fully vaccinated]

COVID Daily Cases: 24

COVID Daily Deaths: 0

Now let us look at an area of India that rejected Ivermectin.

https://www.thehindu.com/news/national/tamil-nadu/tn-drops-ivermectin-as-covid-19-drug/article34561235.ece

Tamil Nadu announced they would reject Ivermectin and instead follow the dubious USA-style guidance of using Remdesivir. Knowing this, you might expect their numbers to be closer to the US, with more cases and more deaths. You would be correct. Tamil Nadu went on to lead India in COVID-19 cases.

https://www.thedesertreview.com/opinion/letters_to_editor/tamil-nadu-leads-india-in-new-infections-denies-citizens-ivermectin/article_32634012-ba66-11eb-9211-ab378d521f9a.html

Tamil Nadu continues to suffer for its choice to reject Ivermectin. As a result, the Delta variant continues to ravage their citizens while it was virtually wiped out in the Ivermectin-using states. Likewise, in the United States, without Ivermectin, both the vaccinated and unvaccinated continue to spread the Delta variant like wildfire.

https://www.cnn.com/2021/08/05/health/us-coronavirus-thursday/index.html

Tamil Nadu off Ivermectin: Population 78.8 Million [6.9% fully vaccinated]

COVID Daily Cases: 1,997

COVID Daily Deaths: 33

Like the JHU CSSE data, Galileo's telescope did not lie either, and the truth can usually be found in plain sight. Ivermectin works, and it works exceedingly well. Harvard-trained virologist Dr. George Fareed and his associate, Dr. Brian Tyson of California's Imperial Valley, have saved 99.9% of their patients with a COVID Cocktail that includes Ivermectin. They have released versions of their new book published in the Desert Review that everyone should read.

https://www.thedesertreview.com/opinion/columnists/doctors-story-of-light-and-life-the-covid-19-darkness-overcome-part-i/article_5ae16f0c-f614-11eb-8351-cf0d67e94c25.html

I could talk about how every one of my patients who used Ivermectin recovered rapidly, about my most recent case who felt 90% better within 48 hours of adding the drug, but I won't. I could write about how Wikipedia censors more than Pravda, about how you should always read the "talk" section of EVERY Wikipedia article to go behind the scenes and understand what the editors DO NOT want you to read, but I will refrain.

I could write about VAERS and how it is so much easier to navigate by following Open VAERS or how Wikipedia has unfairly portrayed Dr. Peter McCullough, one of the world's sharpest and most credible doctors. But I will hold back.

https://www.openvaers.com/

I could also discuss our current cancer treatment system's dangers and how chemotherapy and radiation stimulate cancer stem cells and cancer recurrence. About how this information has been suppressed and how the addition of repurposed drug cocktails can help prevent this, but I digress.

https://www.amazon.com/Surviving-Cancer-COVID-19-Disease-Repurposed/dp/0998055425

I could recite the history of early outpatient treatment of COVID-19 with repurposed drugs, including Ivermectin, with all the specifics, and EXACTLY WHY this lifesaving information has been censored, but instead, I will leave researching these topics to each of you readers as individuals.

https://www.amazon.com/Ivermectin-World-Justus-R-Hope/dp/1737415909

Because you already know what will happen if you simply sit back and swallow what the media are feeding you. You MUST question what the government tells you, and always DO YOUR OWN research.

Following the 1616 Inquisition of Galileo, the Pope banned all books and letters that argued the sun was the center of the Universe instead of the Earth. Similarly, today, the FDA and WHO have banned any use of Ivermectin for COVID outside of a clinical trial.

https://www.fda.gov/consumers/consumer-updates/why-you-should-not-use-ivermectin-treat-or-prevent-covid-19

https://www.who.int/news-room/feature-stories/detail/who-advises-that-ivermectin-only-be-used-to-treat-covid-19-within-clinical-trials

YouTube and Wikipedia both consider Ivermectin for COVID as heresy.

“YouTube doesn’t allow content that spreads medical misinformation that contradicts local health authorities or the World Health Organization’s (WHO) medical information about COVID-19… Treatment misinformation: claims that Ivermectin is an effective treatment for COVID-19.”

Wikipedia defines heresy as: “any belief or theory that is strongly at variance with established beliefs or customs, in particular the accepted beliefs of a church or religious organization. The term is usually used in reference to violations of important religious teachings, but is also used of views strongly opposed to any generally accepted ideas. A heretic is a proponent of heresy.”

Heresy is disagreeing with the government, or their health authority, even if they are all wrong and even if their policies harm people. Today we no longer call it heresy; it is labeled as misinformation.

Galileo was found guilty of heresy and sentenced on June 22, 1633, to formal imprisonment, although this was commuted to house arrest, under which he remained for the rest of his life.

A prominent freeper who desperately asked for help here first of July when her entire family was struck with Covid and were quite ill tried Ivermectin

https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/3974843/posts

https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/3982676/posts

It did not work

She died last week from Covid

The way some posters treated her here was THE WORST BEHAVIOR IVE SEEN HERE IN 21 years

and that is saying something isn’t it...

It’s chilling to read her pleas

And now she’s gone

Just awful how way too many Freepers are in real life.....jackasses.....sour sniping scolds....so what if their politics are somewhat right...really

There is pretty much bullshit on Covid at every angle...

U can buy it at tractor supply or online

Does it work

Well I just posted where if did nothing for the freeper who just died from Covid

I’m ultra high risk

Pacemaker

Pulmonary scar tissue bad

Cardio crap

Old

I took malaria protocol hydroxchloroquine as a prophylaxis

I took it malaria therapeutic when my whole family got it from Kali

I was mildly ill two days with extreme mucous

I also took Zithromax and zinc elixir ...the latter awful

It worked for me..my antibodies 17 months later are 18 times negative range

But I don’t know that it’s a cure all

It seems the monoclated antibodies are the best bet...

Which is what terart ..RIP...was trying desperately to get and hospital protocol kept putting up roadblocks

hard to sort through the noise there, but the standout feature is ivermectin is seen as best as a prophylactic/very early replication inhibitor. it sounds like that poster was taking the prophylactic protocol despite knowing they had the disease.

once it gets into lower respiratory, it isn’t going to help.

i travel and i certainly take the prophylactic protocol, but I know if I do catch it and do get into more serious symptoms, following the Ivm. protocol ceases to matter, and it is time to have Plan B (which hopefully includes an MD will will rx something other than bed rest and tylenol)l

also my take is there is perception that delta replication rate is higher; this may render existing ivm prophylactic protocol less effective as well.

bad bad deal by any measurement.

She was in my thoughts when I wrote that screed.

People should have the right to try to trust their own genetics to be asymptomatic, and if that fails then they should have access to therapeutics to treat the virus.

Vaccination is not the only path forward for the normally healthy.

That is anecdotal, one case. However, the medical community is killing thousands with their current early treatment. Which is nothing. Go home, if you feel your on the brink of death come back.

There should be an Operation Warp Speed for therapeutics. How in the hell can there be no treatment a year-and-a-half later?

COVID killed a young friend (30 years old) Sunday. He died at home with no treatment. Another weightlifter friend looks like an 80 year old man (walking pneumonia), no treatment. Just go home and heal. Return if you think you’re dying.

This is the best medial science has to offer? And finally yes, I wish we were more respectful and agued our cases without getting personal.

I just saw this....how sad

Failed by everyone except two docs on this forum who gave her supportive replies

Why does it kill decent people and some old asshole like me with bad heart and pacemaker and scarred lungs running 60% it’s a like a mild two day cold

I don’t understand it....I took several tropical regimens of plaquenil and zpaks

I can’t say that’s why definitively ....good relatively healthy folks do die from it

That’s what makes it scary

The axis or intersection as they say today....of politics and tech and media and science and some medical lefties have literally resulted in folks dying who may have lived

The monoclated (sic) antibodies treatment advocated here may have made a difference

This is just so heart rending...poor woman desperate for her son and it kills her

Damn

The medical websites I’ve been reading indicate that MABs like bamlanivimab will not be administered when blood oxygen is too low. That’s a consistent policy among them. They say that MABs “may be” associated with worse outcomes for covid patients who require oxygen or who are hospitalized. I recall terart posting that she was denied a med because her O2 needed to be 95%. She was in a tough spot but I’m not sure that there was any malpractice involved.

“but the standout feature is ivermectin is seen as best as a prophylactic/very early replication inhibitor.”

HCQ + zinc has prophylactic effect, interfering with replication of the virus. At least if you can catch it early.

But it looks to me like ivermectin is being used differently, as an immune suppressor to fight the hyperinflammatory cytokine storms that cause severe covid. I think that prednisone is used for the same purpose and may be the preferred drug.

“There should be an Operation Warp Speed for therapeutics. How in the hell can there be no treatment a year-and-a-half later?”

Considering that a good portion of the world’s population is using Ivermectin and considering that there is no ‘approved’ early treatment that it would displace, it would seem to make sense to give it some serious trails...but funny that seems to NEVER happen. Just little 3rd World trials. For one to NOT be asking a lot of questions regarding what’s going on here would disturb me.

I see the writer has dropped the comparison between Delhi and Tamil Nadu which he had written about in dramatic language back in May/June timeframe. I wonder if that’s because the comparison played out in a way that doesn’t support his perspective as strongly as it once seemed to.

Instead he now wants to focus on Uttar Pradesh. The problem with UP is that it’s huge (India’s most populous of 33 states), poor (India’s second poorest), and rural (the sixth most rural). Frankly I don’t trust UP’s data like I do that of Delhi and TN, both of which are relatively wealthy and urban. And to compare UP with the United States is really pushing it. Does it seem credible that UP with population 240 million has only 3 deaths/day? It wouldn’t surprise me if this number were off by orders of magnitude due to poor data collection.

The writer does mention Tamil Nadu in this article but his discussion of it isn’t fair in my opinion. He condemned TN back in June when its deaths were peaking, but then when they started dropping and fell 95% he never acknowledged it. In this article he describes TN’s current cases/deaths of around 2000/30 in a population of 77 million as “ravaging” the populace. Does that seem like a fair characterization?

Bottom line for me is I think this writer is too wedded to his pro-Ivermectin perspective. At this point I consider him interesting but unreliable.

So, bottom line... you’re saying that whether or not a city or state distributes Ivermectin, the results will be the same?

Better to just do nothing like Tamil Nadu did and ride off the Delta wave?

BTW, on what basis do you say that the Health Authorities in Uttar Pradesh are less reliable in their data collection than Delhi and Tamil Nadu?

The argument you seem to be presenting sounds like this - because a state is poorer and predominantly rural, therefore the Health Authorities do not accurately collect Covid data compared to the urban areas.... I’m not sure we can make this a general principle to accept.

BTW, Data Analyst Juan Chamie also took your skeptical take into account regarding India in this discussion with Dr. Mobeen Syed in his channel:

https://youtu.be/aw9bkHnQnY4

Very interesting discussion.

If you don’t have time for the whole thing...

Start around 26:00 on the comparison of Israel and India to see the effect of vaccination vs ivermectin on the spread of the Wuhan virus (SARS-CoV-2).

Upon taking a deep dive on the data, he comes up with a different conclusion regard the effects of Ivermectin.

No, I’m saying that I’m skeptical that Ivermectin has had as much impact in India as the writer asserts. I’m not saying that IVM does nothing or that it should be avoided. I just suspect it does substantially less than its strongest advocates insist and should not be seen as an end all solution. What concerns me is that guys like the writer may be feeding a misconception that Ivermectin is a slam dunk when it’s not.

Yes, my “basis” for being wary of the UP data is indeed that it’s a huge, poor, and rural state and likely has a medical system that is thin on the ground with relatively poor data collection capability. To me this seems like a reasonable assumption.
