Hmmm...: Pfizer’s new ‘daily pill’ to fight Covid utilizes a protease inhibitor… Ivermectin is also a protease inhibitor…

What this screenshot demonstrates is that Pfizer’s new twice-daily pill for Covid utilizes an unknown protease inhibitor, while including a snip from this study showing that Ivermectin also acts as a protease inhibitor.

 

Just another data point in favor of Ivermectin.

Rightly so.

There is no reason to trust them at all.

🧐

“utilizes an unknown protease inhibitor”

Well who doesn’t just love putting mystery chemicals into their bodies?

/omg, these people

I will be interesting to compare Pfizer’s price with Ivermectin’s price once the “new” drug is released.

Looks strongly like Pfizer realizes Ivermectin is a competitor and they set out to wipe Ivermectin’s butt. Won’t happen. Ivermectin has been around a long time. Lots of COVID cases were stopped dead in Indonesia due to Ivermectin.

I’m an old farm girl. I simply do not understand why people are taking the horse paste when they can ingest the inoculate. It tastes like hell, so I put mine in a shot of vodka and downed it quickly.

Neem Leaf also does this.

I predicted some weeks ago that the Pfizer "daily pill" would be some combination of Ivermectin and a steroid to prevent infection and inflammation.

Wondering if that'll turn out to be true...

BTW, here's a list of drugs that are protease inhibitors

Any of these may be candidates for 1,000% markup by Pfizer as re-branded/re-marketed drugs to prevent the China virus.

I’m still in the process. I received notification last evening that the prescription has been sent to the pharmacy. Should be picking it up today. I did quite a bit of research and the final prescription is very mild from what I read. In my description I said I wanted the prescription as a prophylaxis against covid.

The nice thing is to have some on hand if big pharma and the govt. find a way to ban it and other therapeutics. Then if I actually get covid, I’ll probably be ok.

From multiple physicians, it looks like natural antibodies from having the disease is way more effective than the vaccines, many of which are very problematic. It’s just so fishy that the govt wants everyone to get the vaccine, even and especially those who are unlikely to have serious symptoms.

Immunity from the vaccine doesn’t last anyway, but natural immunity from having the disease endures. It just doesn’t make sense. Now they’re talking about needing more and more “boosters”. Whether the underlying reason for the push for vaccines is greed or some desire on the part of the govt. to control us, it’s not good.

Neem Leaf is sold many places as a supplement. Like, Nature’s Way Neem Leaf for $4.61 for a 100 capsules.


Below are only a few of many studies showing Neem Leaf is a powerful anti-viral. Drug companies stay away as it cannot be patented, thus they cannot make mega dollars on it. In fact, it would take away profits they make on other drugs.

Some Compounds from Neem leaves extract exhibit binding affinity as high as -14.3 kcal/mol against COVID-19 Main Protease (Mpro): A Molecular Docking Study

Conclusion
Naturally occurring Neem tree has a host of compounds on its leaves, bark, trunk, seeds. Neem leaves has been already known for its antiviral and antibacterial properties around the world. Since Meliacinanhydride and other compounds are derived from Neem leaves, ingesting Neem leaves extract powder or crude Neem leaves contains might inhibit the COVID- 19 virus by prevent it from replicating. Also Neem leaves are known to reduce blood sugar levels and also they act as ACE inhibitors. (Rotimi O. Arise, 2019) In addition to that Neem leaves has more than 140+ compounds like quercetin, zinc along with Vitamins like Vitamin C, E & K and ingesting them orally will also boost immunity. However, further in vitro and later in vivo tests are needed to evaluate compounds from Neem leaves as clinical drugs. Since the oral availability of these compounds are high further tests are needed to evaluate them against COVID-19 for clinical use.

Screening of potential drug from Azadirachta Indica (Neem) extracts for SARS-CoV-2: An insight from molecular docking and MD-simulation studies

4. Conclusion
The inhibitory effect of several molecules extracted from Neem (A. Indica) on PLpro protein of the SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) has been studied in the present work. All the 19 molecules studied showed potential docking ability with PLpro, along with toxicity and other values, while being nontoxic themselves, in comparison with 7 drugs currently being tested against COVID-19.

A computational prediction of SARS-CoV-2 structural protein inhibitors from Azadirachta indica (Neem)

In conclusion, we have identified a few possible inhibitors of the E and M proteins of SARS-CoV-2 using molecular docking, MD simulation and binding free energy calculations. These compounds, derived from Neem, displayed stable binding and interactions with crucial regions of E and M required for assembly; and were predicted to have good pharmacokinetic properties. Nimbolin A showed the strongest binding free energy with both E and M proteins. Other compounds: Nimocin and Cycloartanols (24-Methylenecycloartanol and 24-Methylenecycloartan-3-one) were also common ligands, binding strongly to both proteins. A recent study has shown ameliorating effect of Neem extract on propagation and pathophysiology of another member of the coronavirus family (Sarkar et al., 2020), reinforcing the potential of these compounds as potential therapeutic options. Experimental validation and optimization of these natural compounds might add value to the development of specific therapeutics against SARS-CoV-2.

When used as parasite control in farm animals.

https://peerj.com/preprints/26770.pdf

Potential negative effects of the synthetic veterinary pharmaceutical, Ivermectin, on nontarget fauna have generated a search for less-toxic alternatives. Thus, Neem plant extract (Azadirachta indica A. Juss) has been used as a natural alternative to replace Ivermectin worldwide.

Sheeesh, I’ve owned J&J for at least 25 years and it has made my IRA Richer and Fatter through thick and thin.

The stock price not only goes up steadily, they keep raising their dividends which is significant given the pittance I get from interest in the banks.
