I don't remember much from undergrad microbiology, but I do recall the "bug" that I was assigned to present to the class... Aspergillus Fumigatus. It's everywhere, and it's mean, and it's getting better at resisting the azole drugs that it is treated with, and before azole drugs, most treatments were almost as deadly as the bug!!
Wikipedia entry (with cite): "it is estimated that A. fumigatus may be responsible for over 600,000 deaths annually with a mortality rate between 25 and 90%"

Wow, they found a cancer cure in King Tut’s crip? Holy Cow as Harry would say! :-) Hey, if they find a cancer cure under a dead dog in the middle of the road, great! Anything to kill that scourge on mankind. I hate that stinking disease. It has killed too many of my family members over the years.

"
azole drugs"
Is that a pejorative or a classification?

Ivermectin supposedly kills it before it reaches molecular level.
what level is it before it gets to molecular level?

Back then they did not have classroom/on-line safety modules for Confined Spaces.

The cure may kill you. But it’s good for you.

From what I researched years ago I recall it was the abberant amino acid stage that Ivermectin went after.

This is the cure for cancer I think, and others are presenting themselves in a very interesting mannerâwhen it was discovered that this drug eliminates CV-19 back in 2019 (thatâs when I first knew the gig was up on CV-19 and that it wasnât anything more than mass hysteria during normal cold / flu season followed by the mask mandate/ thing.)
Sometimes tragic events or the ugly face of wickedness of socialism and communism, in this case, can open the windows and shed light on the truth of the matter. What was meant for evil God used for the good of all that believe on Him and obey Him. And merciful God to all, that those who have not received Christ will come to Him.
Masking up drives any coronavirus deep inside the lungs and thus caused pneumonia mostly double pneumonia.
The shots were the actual plague.
