The Sun, maybe. Lots of vitamin-D.
ummm, no TV???
The Japanese Government did not recommend Ivermectin, the individual at the head of their equivalent of the AMA did.
He did not recommend it for prevention - only as an option for treatment.
Ivermectin has not been widely adopted in Tokyo for prevention.
Japan has fully inoculated over 75% of its population (the highest among the G-7) - more in Tokyo.
The drop in hospitalizations closely followed a similar drop in cases and test positivity.
Delta has had its run in Tokyo.
Vaccinations are not “causing” high case numbers there either.
There sure are a lot of commenters here desperately trying to explain this away.
Smoking good hash will do that.
So you believe Japan vaccinated 75% of its population just between the weeks of August 15 and Nov. 1?
“So you believe Japan vaccinated 75% of its population just between the weeks of August 15 and Nov. 1?”
Your words, not mine.
My words: Japan has fully vaccinated over 75% of its population - more in Tokyo.
Percentages are higher among adults, and the Delta variant had also had a very wide/rapid spread in densely populated Tokyo.
Japan got a late start with mass vaccination, and lagged the G-7 when the Olympics started. They have surged dramatically, and now lead the G-7.
Malaria is a major public health problem in Bangladesh. So I wonder how many of them regularly take HCQ??????
Very few obese people there, plus they live outside for a lot of the day. In other words healthier than us obese Americans
“There may also be environmental factors.”
Well, one BIG problem in Bangladesh is that the available ground water contains high (and in some cases, spectacular) levels of arsenic. The “helpful” UN discovered this several years ago after they started setting up wells.
I want to make it absolutely clear in my above post that arsenic would DEFINITELY AN INCREDIBLY AND ABSOLUTELY VERY BAD IDEA as a prophylactic or treatment for ANY illness!

not worth a repeat because, as with most pandemicprofiteers, it’s counting on people being ignorant and too lazy to fact check for themselves
For instance, the median age 25.. How many Americans 25 or under have died from covid?
With the lowest testing rate in the world, where testing was conducted the transmission rates reached 50%, that is, every other person tested positive meaning many youth were infected, with the same levels and types of physiological damage as in any other infected human.
By May 2021, Bangladesh was on the list of countries that had run critically low on oxygen. From the start of the Delta surge hospitals turned infected patients away and refused treatment. By July 7, Dkarta hospitals were overwhelmed with 11K cases reported on that day. The Bangladeshi government has no clue how many deaths outside of a hospital occurred, how many covid injuries in survivors, or even how many were turned away from medical care. And there will never be an accountability.
Covid in Bangladesh - wiki
On 29 May, the DGHS recommended an immediate “strict lockdown” of eight districts which had witnessed an average positivity rates of over 30 percent
Throughout June a steep rise in transmission was reported in the border district...with steep increases in positivity rates, regularly reaching as high as 50 or 60 percent in some districts.[73] The nationwide positivity rate once again crossed 20 percent on 23 June 2021
Throughout the first half of July, Bangladesh regularly recorded its highest daily deaths since the pandemic began[76][77][78][79][80] as hospitals struggled under the strain, with many operating above their capacity.[81]
On 1 July 2021 Bangladesh went into another national lockdown,...The restrictions outlined for the second lockdown of July were stricter than that of the lockdown a few weeks prior,
In June, the vaccination programme was resumed (having been halted in April due to supply shortages) using supplies of the Sinopharm BIBP vaccine from China[104] and, in July, using the Pfizer–BioNTech vaccine[105] and Moderna vaccine[106]
...Bangladesh has consistently shown one of the lowest test rates per capita in the world... As of 16 July 2021, approximately 7.2 million tests had been conducted,[128] corresponding to one test per 23 people - the lowest in South Asia after Afghanistan.[129]
Fear of the transmission of COVID-19, particularly in the early months of the outbreak, meant that many patients were turned away from hospitals (private and public), with some dying as a result.[193][194]
kinda strange you refuse to understand that biden proved the kung flu is a scam when he opened the border during a so called “global pandemic”...
No, it was worth a repeat because it forced a bunch of brainwashed Biden lovers to once again repeat all the over used excuses for the dismal efficacy of the experimental “vaccines”.
And of course you did so much research... repeating exaggerated and lame talking points. So the median age of Bangladesh is 25? Let's try that again! According to world-o-meter, many liberal's favorite source of information the median age of Bangladeshis is 27.6. You do realize that this means that half the population is over the age of 27.6?
Since you are so conscientious, did you bother to see how a median age of 27.6 compares to other parts of the world a little closer to home? Utah has a median age of 31.2... just 2.5 years older than Bangladesh. In Provo Utah the median age is 23.3... 4.3 years younger than that of Bangladesh.
And I am so impressed with your ability to cut and paste from Wikipedia. You do realize that there are few more politically biased sources available. Do you have any idea what Wikipedia says about “climate change”? Oh, but I am sure that they have put politics aside when it comes to their Covid stats!
Shame on you! You think quoting one biased leftist source and providing incorrect and exaggerated stats from who knows where gives you some kind of street cred and that you deserve some sort of pat on the back? Most would call that attempt at “fact checking” lazy as hell.
But thanks for reminding us all once again just how little you have to explain why 30% of hospital staff in the US remain unvaccinated even at the risk of losing their jobs. These are the people who have the most firsthand knowledge and 30% have chosen not to get the vaccines despite intense pressure. The same is true of first responders such as police and fire personnel. I know chiefs and top-level FEMA personnel who have chosen to give up their jobs instead of taking the vaccines. I know why... You do not have a clue.
My wife is a retired career nurse and department head. I am a retired Hazmat team leader. I likely took ten times more vaccines than you to help protect myself from biohazards. Both my wife and I have been huge proponents of vaccination programs for decades. Some of the places that she worked at lost dozens of people in a month during bad flu seasons. I volunteered my time helping seniors get their flu and other shots because they save lives. We are both in our 60s. Neither of us have gotten the experimental “vaccines”. Why? You have no clue do you! Two highly trained professionals who spent their entire careers providing health care to others choose not to get the experimental "vaccines" along with millions of other health care providers and you have no idea why.
I have wasted too much time responding to you already. You are going to continue taking the easy path and feeling smug about it. You are going to remain willfully ignorant and there is nothing that I can do to change that. You have bought into the propaganda but it is not because you have done more research or are smarter than those who have not. You just have not woken up to the fact that the government agencies and media sources that you have put all your faith in are politically biased and their information is not reliable at this time.
Well said 🙌🏻
LOL Thank you for adding the disclaimer!
Although... I recall that back in the day of folks like the Medici’s were doing their thing that Kings used to regularly take small doses of common poisons to build up an immunity... That is a bad idea in general and a REALLY BAD idea for arsenic!
