New Mexico health officials link misuse of ivermectin to two Covid-19 deaths

**SNIP**

The two who died - at 38 and 79 years old - had Covid-19 and had taken ivermectin instead of proven treatments like monoclonal antibodies, said Dr. David R. Scrase, the acting head of the state health department. He said the drug had contributed to both deaths, causing kidney failure in one of the patients.

Dr. Scrase said in an interview on Saturday that using ivermectin to treat Covid was like taking an antacid for a heart attack. “It’s the wrong medicine for something really serious,” he said.

Dr. Susan Smolinske, the director of the New Mexico Poison and Drug Information Center, said that about half of the reported cases of ivermectin poisoning this year were people who took the drug to prevent Covid.

While certain versions of ivermectin are prescribed to treat head lice and other parasites in people, other formulations - which come in forms such as liquid and paste - are commonly used in the equine and livestock industries to combat worms and parasites.

In past years, Dr. Smolinske said, many of the incidents in New Mexico involved children mistakenly taking chewable tablets intended for dogs, but recently the poison centers had seen more instances of people taking concentrated forms of the drug intended for large animals.

“Most of our cases are of the horse or dewormer or pour-on product, so they’re highly concentrated compared to those tablets for dogs,” said Dr. Susan Smolinske, the director of the New Mexico Poison and Drug Information Center.

Dr. Smolinske said misuse of the drug can cause drowsiness, dizziness, tremors or even a coma. “It gets into the brain, and if you take a high enough dose, it has difficulty getting out of the brain,” she said.

Where are those studies showing your $2000 per injection treatment is more effective the $1/dose Ivermectin/zinc?

You sure ain’t much of a doctor and most likely a DNC hack.

Beastly Covid diagnosis last week which kept getting worse. In spite of getting monoclonal antibodies in the ER, it continued to worsen. (I am suspicious of what might have been in the vials.)

Three days with high temps, dizziness, chills, headache, nausea, hard breathing. I figured I’d be meeting my Fiona at Rainbow Bridge, and I was OK with that.

Then Monday morning I took 5 Ivermectin (3mg ea). About 14 hours later I noticed that I didn’t feel as bad and wondered if I was imagining that. By bedtime I knew it was real. Just a LITTLE better, but better.

This morning, 5 more pills and improvement continues with most issues. The remaining chest-breathing thing is still there, but not as bad. I will go for a checkup for that and hope that can be reversed in time.

Husband’s is better but not 100%. Lingering overall ick but so far lungs are good.

He spoke with his PCP today who said some have lingered for three months before being clear.

Well, you are an idiot, so I guess It cuts both ways. I would present you the literature, but quite clearly you are not able to understand it.

NAC has been on the outs forever — it is not a reasonable pulmonary treatment. HCQ is clearly demonstrated to do nothing. Ivermectin is weakly able to treat, but many people progress on ivermectin.

However, monoclonals stop the disease in its tracks — and should be administered early. This is the best option.

Hey hey hey. No personal insults.

statistically there is overwhelming evidence that it might actually work. Science. Perhaps they started ivermection too late. Perhaps they were obese, Perhaps they got bit by a spider that had the j&j vax with the astrology zenith ca vax booster while taking zinc and nac and melatonin.

Everything seems to protect you about as much as a mask does. 😷

Namecalling is all you got. The oldest DNC trick in the book. Go ahead and post your proof, amuse us.

How does 200 million people put an end to Covid with only Ivermectin and zinc?

BigPharma rep, most likely. And, a DNC hack. Could easily be both :-)

It can’t help if the lungs are so destroyed that only a lung transplant is the only viable option.

You mean, the monoclonals that are being "equitably rationed" [translation: preventing red states from getting the doses that they want] by the Biden puppeteers.

Are you dense?
