it was testimony on Dec 8 by Kory himself. that taking a prophylactic dose would prevent covid, so yeah, Kory did make a stupid comment

“Pierre Kory, a Wisconsin physician and one of ivermectin’s most vociferous promoters, testified at Johnson’s hearing that if people took the drug they would not get sick”
Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
https://www.yahoo.com/news/long-line-medical-conspiracy-theories-153937616.html

Then he went full stupid and recommended doubling the prophylactic dose, without bothering to tell people that ivermectin can accumulate in brain tissue:

“lead researcher Dr. Robert Hendrickson.. is associate medical director of the Oregon Poison Center and a professor of emergency medicine at Oregon Health and Science University, in Portland. [says] Hendrickson explained that ivermectin can accumulate in the brain. “That’s where most of the toxicity is — you get off balance, you get confused and feel weak ...”

Do your body a favor and just find out where your monoclonal centers are, and go get some antibodies in you if you get sick.

Maybe “testing +” does not equal “getting sick;” I’m going to trust Men’s Health “ to tell me all about Dr. Kory’s course , just like you.

You are lying, the article you posted is lying too, and I can prove it.

Here is Pierre’s Kory actual testimony from Dec 8th in full.

https://www.hsgac.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/Testimony-Kory-2020-12-08.pdf

Notice he doesn’t say anywhere that if you take ivermectin you won’t get sick. The article you posted lied.

Grats on posting a dishonest article full of journalistic malpractice. And grats about adding your own dishonest claims about Ivermectin being so very toxic.

You are the one talking about people going “full stupid”?

When you are on your tenth booster and still hiding in bedroom from the virus, tell the rest of us that got on with our lives a year ago if it safe to go outside, yet.

“The Pandemic” was over for me when I got covid last December.

I don’t worry about “the unvaccinated”, like vaccinated people seem to, obsessively.

Karen much?

Posting a YouTube video of that testimony got me permanently banned from one of my favorite sites for posting “conspiracy theory crap.

I had to create a new account. Fortunately, it’s a site that I don’t need to say anything on. I just use it for its resources now.

But yeah, cancel culture is disgusting.

Instead of getting your news from a liberal news hit piece, why not go see what Dr. Kory actually said at that hearing? Nowhere did he say that if people take Ivermectin they would not get sick. He did present many studies if the efficacy of Ivermectin. https://www.hsgac.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/Testimony-Kory-2020-12-08.pdf

Dr. Kory’s group of physicians also recommends monoclonals on their treatment protocol page as well https://covid19criticalcare.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/FLCCC-Alliance-I-MASKplus-Protocol-ENGLISH.pdf

Your second link refers to “research” done by Dr. Robert Hendrickson. This was in fact not a research study, it was just a letter to the editor based on 21 calls to a poison control center for which 6 people were hospitalized but none died https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMc2114907 There is no actual data on any of these patients as to other conditions they may have, including Covid itself, which can cause the symptoms described. In short, there is no proof of causation.

Long before Covid and the “government approved treatments” appeared, the safety profile of Ivermectin had been studied extensively. Here are just a few:

Ivermectin, ‘Wonder drug’ from Japan: the human use perspective
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/labs/pmc/articles/PMC3043740/

Here is the Australian safety report on ivermectin when it was approved for the treatment for scabies. It states “ Ivermectin has no effect on mammalian GABA-mediated central nervous activity because it does not cross the blood-brain barrier” https://www.tga.gov.au/sites/default/files/auspar-ivermectin-131030.pdf

Another review of Ivermectin safety studies: “ The present extensive review of adverse events reportedly associated with ivermectin treatment for therapeutic or prophylactic purpose did not reveal any significant cause for concern. Indeed, with the notable exception of patients with parasitic diseases such as Onchocerciasis or Loa-Loa microfiliaris, serious adverse events temporarily associated with ivermectin were very infrequent. In fact, adverse events were mainly mild to moderate and infrequent. This is confirmed by results reported in patients with scabies or human beings without any ongoing parasitic disease.” https://thevirus.wtf/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/Clinical_Safety_of_Ivermectin-March_2021.pdf

In fact, if you review the many studies on ivermectin, you will find that in the majority of cases, the most severe adverse events are related to the parasite being eliminated. Studies of use in scabies rarely result in these kinds of events.

According to the WHO adverse reaction database, vigiaccess.org, ivermectin which has been in use almost 30 years, has had only 5,705 adverse events. Even Tylenol has reported over 169,000 adverse events.

Monoclonals - It is important to note that monoclonal antibodies are under EUA in which the FDA says its safety needs to be studied https://www.fda.gov/news-events/press-announcements/coronavirus-covid-19-update-fda-authorizes-monoclonal-antibodies-treatment-covid-19

Side effects include:
throat irritation, swelling in your face or throat; dizziness, a light-headed feeling (like you might pass out); chest pain, wheezing, shortness of breath;
fever, chills, sweating, nausea, flushing (sudden warmth, redness, or tingly feeling); fast or slow heartbeats, headache, pounding in your neck or ears;
weakness, tiredness; rash, itching; or muscle pain

In addition, in many areas (such as mine) you have to meet the criteria for monoclonals by age or other risk factors. My husband and I meet none of the risk factors and would not qualify.

In short:
- no treatment is 100%, but both ivm and monoclonals appear to be effective against covid.
- both therapeutics are most effective in early stages of Covid
- no medicine is without side effects, neither ivermectin nor monoclonals.
- ivermectin has a an excellent safety profile in humans and has decades of studies on it. Regen-cov appears to be safe but has less than one year of data and limited studies.
- ivermectin does not have the exclusion criteria that monoclonals do

“Getting sick” is not the same as “contracting COVID”.

Basically, if one is regularly pre-dosing with Ivermectin, the event of “contracting COVID” becomes more or less a total non-event in which the body says to the virus, “You’ve got three hours to have a little fun and then, it’s Kibash time”. Viral load NEVER gets high or out of control.

No fear, no hospital, no ventilator tube...and what else? Natural immunity as a parting gift, to boot. What’s not to like?
