Top ivermectin expert says deworming drug does not treat COVID, that it poses no danger to humans if taken in the correct dose - and that people are getting sick because they're taking high-strength version intended for large animals Dr Timothy Geary is a renowned parasite expert and has studied ivermectin for over a decade He says the drug does not have any effectiveness fighting viruses, and a study showing that it can combat COVID-19 is being misinterpreted Concentrations of the drug used in the study are not safe for human use, and not applicable to the real world The drug has become popular in America, and many are resorting to using versions of the drug made for animals, which can have dangerous side effects

Dr Timothy Geary is one of the world's foremost experts of ivermectin, and has done research on the drug for over a decade.

Geary, who is the Research Chair in Parasite Biotechnology at McGill University in Montreal, Canada, says that the study which spawned much of the ivermectin-craze is not being correctly read.

He told DailyMail.com that the study did show that ivermectin could inhibit the replication of COVID-19 virus cells, which is what many are reading from the study that makes them believe the drug has virus killing properties.

You know what is going on. Inflammation is a problem for many even without getting Covid-wxyz. Ivermectin is best as a preventative AND taken in the early stages of Covid-wxyz. To calm down the inflammation, so our immune systems can dispose of the Covid.

The lower threshold for Ivermectin toxicity is 50 times normal dose. The upper threshold is 250 times normal dose! Consider a 200 pound man at .2mg/kg would dose at approximately 18mg for prophylactic use. There are approximately 6 doses per tube for a 200 pound person. To reach the LOWER threshold for toxicity a person would have to ingest at minimum over EIGHT of the 6.08g (1.87%) tubes and possibly as many as FORTY tubes before there were adverse effects. What we are seeing is nothing but the Communists trying to control the narrative. They CAN NOT let the serfs know that there are viable alternatives to their vaccine.

Well people in Hell want ice water. Unfortunately I do think demons are less rigid than some employers and school boards.

I am glad she recovered. I don’t get why there is this large scale rejection of natural immunity.

Only....numerous studies have been posted, right here, regarding the effectiveness of Ivermectin, during several stages of china virus....not just as an early treatment.

It does not fight the virus or kill the virus. It prevents and treats the damage CAUSED by the virus. HUGE difference not in this report. This is the same as saying, “inhalators (h.t. Obama) do not cure asthma so do not use inhalators.” NO. Inhalators do not cure asthma but they treat the symptoms of asthma and are proven to save lives. Same as epi-pens and any number of medical treatments.

“The dosages are also much larger, meant for an animal that can weigh over 1,000 pounds, not a person that can weight less than one-fifth of that.”

Red herring. You measure your dose based on your own weight, you don’t take the dose for a horse.

Ivermectin was shown to inhibit viral replication. Preventing COVID going into the pneumonia stage greatly increases the chances of surviving because as you point out pneumonia kills.

Which is one very valid reason to fight against being put on a ventilator or having a loved one put on one. Ventilator Associated Pneumonia is a real threat.

I was reading the side effects of ivermectin and it looks to be very safe, but and it looks like someone could experience more side effects if you have parasites because of the die off I guess. Could that be a possibility?

I won’t take the horse paste because I react badly to pectin so the apple flavor may mess me up, so I got meds through a teledoc instead.

Which is one very valid reason to fight ' against being put on a ventilator or having a loved one put on one.

I have been posting that exact idea:


My wife and I, both in our sixties, had COVID-1984 in January/February of 2020 before it had a name and survived it without doctor visits or drugs, and I have the IgG and IgM antibodies to prove it.

Luckily, we were too dumb to run to a hospital so they could hook us up to ventilators and kill us.

It was the worst flu of our lives in terms of crap in our lungs, and it took months to cough it all up, which is key.

You have to cough until you are worn out, but you have to get your lungs clear.

Hooking somebody up to a ventilator prevents coughing and the crap continues to accumulate in their lungs until they die.

It's as if they want to kill people.

Stay away from hospitals if you get it and want to live.

I wonder if something like mucinex would help with clearing the lungs? Maybe someone who has tried it can chime in

Hmm, the sheep drench we use has the dosage by body weight of the animal. Could it be that this article is propaganda meant to dis-sway people from looking for alternatives to the Big Pharma solutions?
