Why Ivermectin was Disappeared
American Thinker ^ | 5 Feb, 2022 | Henry F. Smith Jr., MD

Posted on 02/05/2022 4:23:11 AM PST by MtnClimber

If the medical authorities and pharmaceutical companies actively suppressed the adoption of useful medications during a pandemic, then this is beyond the pale.

It’s a common occurrence in winter. A patient calls a primary physician to report a nonproductive cough, slight hoarseness, muscle aches, and a low-grade fever. The physician, and likely the patient, realize that this is almost certainly a viral upper respiratory infection. If the patient were in the office, the physician may test for a streptococcal bacterial infection, but it will likely be negative.

This is probably an infection with a rhinovirus, adenovirus, or endemic coronavirus. Despite this, the afflicted patient will happily proceed to the pharmacy to pick up their prescription for an antibiotic. The patient will feel as though the physician was proactive, something the doctor certainly understands.

This prescription, however, will be of no value to the patient and may actually cause issues. Yet pharmacies in the U.S. see this type of prescription thousands of times a day.

It occurs despite the fact that physicians are constantly reminded that gratuitous antibiotic prescriptions come with side effects and can lead to antibiotic resistance. Beyond that, there is no tangible resistance to this practice from the medical establishment or healthcare authorities.

Now let’s imagine another patient calls in. This patient also has a dry cough scratchy throat, muscle aches, and a low-grade fever. Only this patient had a COVID test kit at home and tested positive. The physician wants to prescribe a medication with no risk of bacterial resistance

SNIP

Not only has this FDA-approved, Nobel prize-winning drug been made unavailable, but if a physician were to prescribe it, or advocate it as therapy, they are threatened with the potential loss of their medical license, their hospital affiliations, and their board certification.

There was a great Tweet between a couple doctors I saw the other day.

Q from Doc A: Who is in charge of the Biden Administration’s Covid response?

A from Doc B: Pfizer.

Ivermectin links. More than you probably want to know about Ivermectin:

General info on use vs. Covid, etc.
https://www.barnhardt.biz/ivermectin/

Huge meta study
https://ivmmeta.com/

Doctors using it and protocols
https://covid19criticalcare.com/ivermectin-in-covid-19/

https://covid19criticalcare.com/covid-19-protocols/

https://vladimirzelenkomd.com/treatment-protocol/

Emory University has a very prestigious medical school. The Dean of Emory Medical School has Indian heritage, and co-wrote an article in the Times of India advocating using Ivermectin against Covid, among other things. This has gotten =ZERO= coverage in US media, including his hometown paper, the AJC, and his hometown news network, CNN.

Try to convince me that isn’t newsworthy - both his original article and the non-coverage of it by US media.

Link to the article discussed above, and Emory’s leadership page.

Africa and Ivermectin

https://archive.is/2021.08.28-042601/https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1431339779703017477.html

The infographic there is excellent. Summary: The parts of Africa where Ivermectin is in widespread use to prevent a terrible parasitic disease, African River Blindness, also have very low Covid incidence.

Interesting Twitter account that has linked many Ivermectin and other med studies on Covid treatments.

You can access Ivermectin through www.pushhealth.com. Dr. Charlotte Charfen, based in Hawaii, wrote the prescription, and we received it through epharmacy.com. Hopefully we won’t need it, but it’s good to have it around just in case.

“Given all this, I think it’s easy to suspect that the FDA, the NIH, and the CDC actually understand the potential benefits of Ivermectin and other repurposed drugs. But they also realize that these medications threaten the profits of the pharmaceutical industry with which they are financially entwined.”

Exactly as you said, follow the money.

I took it last month with early symptoms and two family members positive.

It was a 3/10 cold for me. Never got in my chest.

The worst part was a “Covid fog” where my brain wasn’t working quite right.

Strange side effect of Covid. I’d read that it causes food allergies. So I decided to eat something to which I’d been diagnosed (skin test) as being allergic to about three years ago. The allergy was gone. No symptoms. I’m hoping it is gone for good.

It’s a lab-created illness. Hence the bizarre side effects.

This worked so well for the globalists. No telling what their next one will be.

Ivermectin is very effective against parasites. No wonder Democrats are scared.

My dog takes Ivermectin every month.

Is my dog taking horse paste or are horses taking dog medications?

At this point, the only question in my mind is, when did Fauci and the rest of the Cabal, and China, know about Ivermectin?

My bet is even before their release of the virus.

It was their “ace in the hole”, to make certain that they wouldn’t die from what they were unleashing.

I guarantee you that they weren’t counting on their fake “vaccine” to save themselves.

Time to start a massive class action malpractice lawsuit followed by a massive RICO lawsuit.

Except the lawyers work for the other side. Good luck getting any prominent members of the bar to go after Big Pharma. If doctors won’t do it, lawyers certainly won’t.

This is a job for bottom feeder lawyers, the ambulance chaser class. Once the bigshots see that the bottom feeders are getting rich, they may follow suit. Never underestimate the greed of a lawyer with no morals.

“beyond the pale”

Actually osamacare turned the medical establishment into a soulless money making operation.
Socialism is only a cover for our enemies within money laundering operation.

It is OTC in many countries. I wouldn’t be surprised if the US Feds sent agents to BUY everything on the shelves, in the warehouses, and inhibit manufacturing of a very safe and effective drug. Wouldn’t surprise me at all.
