Family Fights for Ivermectin for Dying Loved One, Courts Say 'No'
PJ Media ^ | 01/16/2022 | Kevin Downey Jr.

Posted on 01/16/2022 4:30:16 PM PST by SeekAndFind

Daniel Pisano is dying of COVID-19. He’s been on ventilator in Florida for 28 days now at the Mayo Clinic. His doctors give him a less than 5% chance of survival.

His wife and son want him treated with the COVID plan recommended by Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance (FLCCC). It involves using ivermectin. They want Dr. Eduardo Balbona to treat their family member. The Mayo Clinic refused. The family went to court, hoping the court would force the clinic to allow an outside doctor to treat Pisano. Judge Marianne Aho decided against it.

They appealed that decision and lost that court battle, too. They don’t get to decide what course to take for the 70-year-old Pisano.

The Mayo Clinic asserted that the FLCCC COVID battle plan doesn’t fall in line with their COVID protocol, which at this point appears to be to leave Pisano on a ventilator and hope for the best. This, despite hundreds of stories of people using ivermectin to survive COVID.

Jonathan Bowling and his family have several comorbidities which make recovering from COVID-19 much more difficult. Watch his story as he credits the FLCCC protocol for saving their lives after they fell ill with the disease:

Ivermectin is a drug used for livestock but it’s also been used for decades on humans. Numerous peer-reviewed studies show ivermectin can help people with the Bat Soup flu.

Why doesn’t a family have any say in the care of a loved one? More importantly, why would the Mayo Clinic allow people to die rather than try ivermectin? What’s stopping them?

Good gosh.

For what? Will anyone be accountable for this?

Thank you for posting that, SeekAndFind, it made the point I was trying clumsily to reach.

Okay. I’m surprised then that more docs aren’t willing to offer it in addition to what they know will work. The placebo effect alone might do something. HCQ or Ivermectin aren’t liable to do any harm are they? I thought that the main knock is that they don’t seem to work very well despite what the conspiracy army wants to believe. If it won’t harm them then let them have it.

The man is inevitably going to die because of the hospital and the judge, but your ok ith it because of technicalities and fine points.

Have you read the ruling — there is a lot of information in it. Or are you just burying your head int he sand repeating talking points.

No, the man is going to die because he failed to get monoclonals because no one treated him including the petitioners expert with monoclonals. Had he received monoclonals there would not be this issue

I know its not favorable to your position but there are over 300 pages of complaint, testimony and rulings the crystallize all the debates. It is both fair and reasonable.

But because YOU disagree, you have to name call and through mud.

Education is always the enemy of ignorance.

You can sign a patient out at any time. They will threaten you with going AMA....but you can still do it. They should take this man to another hospital.

Not sure how you sign someone out who is on a vent though. Good Lord, what a disaster for this family.

It’s not really a mess.

When you act with courage, taking political risk to save lives in a pandemic, you land on the right side of history.

When people die because you believed the low IQ establishment, your outcome is not favorable.

There is a bit of a trickle of information that comes out each day that almosts confirms that theory.

Although I am pretty sure the good docs are just following established protocols. They might even forget science and just do what they are told.

He is going to DIE because of the hospital and the judge. More guilt on the judge.

I believe books will be written on how a broad swathe of the medical community was manipulated into believing lies and distorted data, and then made decisions violating their oath and their ethical devotion to patient care.

Quite a complex dynamic.

But it doesn’t take a genius to understand that the quickest way to control a person’s thinking is to target their livelihood.

Social pressure, peer and otherwise, has also been a powerful tool in this.

The table I saw showed Ivermectin useful in all three stages of the disease. It is just less effective the more advanced the disease. HCQ on the table showed it was good in the first two and not effective in the third

RE: that in every aspect monoclonals are superior to anything else.

OK here’s the question... the hospital is Mayo Clinic, one of the top ones in the country. The state is Florida, where Gov. DeSantis has made available almost everywhere to treat Covid patients.

Why was this particular patient not treated with the Monoclonals as early as possible?

Who knows?
Maybe the patient had a physician who thought Ivermectin would do the trick
Perhaps the patient didn’t care
There are a million reasons possible

At some point there has to be some patient accountability — it is true that down in Florida there are monoclonals readily available, however given the relentless pursuit of the conspiracy against ivermectin, it is possible that the patient believed ivermectin would work and didn’t seek monoclonals.

As the court found and others have side

No, he is going to die because he did not seek early treatment with monoclonals and he contracted covid. It has nothing to do with the hospital nor the judge, although hey make good targets because ivermectin is not all its cracked up to me

According to the testimony of Balbona MD, the once case he successfully forced — died.

Read the testimony

It tells the whole story
