For years, Americans were told their only hope was to roll up their sleeves for Pfizer, Moderna, and the rest of the vaccine cartel.
Trillions of dollars flowed into their coffers while dissenting doctors were silenced, families were divided, and countless workers lost their jobs under vaccine mandates.
However, a peer-reviewed study out of Germany now shows that a cheap, decades-old nasal spray, azelastine, may do what the so-called ‘miracle’ experimental COVID jabs never accomplished: stop infection.
According to new findings published in JAMA Internal Medicine this week, all it may have taken to block infections was a $10 bottle of over-the-counter nasal spray used for seasonal allergies.
https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamainternalmedicine/fullarticle/2838335#:~:text=Conclusions%20and%20Relevance%20In%20this,confirmation%20in%20larger%2C%20multicentric%20trials.
Researchers at Saarland University Hospital in Germany ran a phase 2 double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial on 450 healthy adults between March 2023 and July 2024.
Participants were randomly divided into two groups:
* 227 volunteers received azelastine nasal spray (a common antihistamine used for allergies) three times a day.
* 223 volunteers got a placebo spray.
All participants were tested for COVID twice per week for nearly two months.
The difference was undeniable:
* Infections in the placebo group: 15 out of 223 people (6.7%) caught COVID.
* Infections in the azelastine group: Only 5 out of 227 people (2.2%) got infected. That’s a 67% reduction in risk of infection. The odds ratio came out to 0.31 (95% CI, 0.11–0.87; P = .02), meaning the nasal spray cut the likelihood of catching COVID by more than two-thirds, statistically significant.
Not only were fewer people infected, but those who did get sick had longer protection before infection (31 days on average versus 19 days in the placebo group) and shorter illness duration when measured by rapid tests (3.4 days vs 5.1 days).
The spray didn’t just block COVID. It also:
* Cut symptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infections from 6.3% (placebo) down to 1.8%.
* Reduced rhinovirus (common cold) infections from 6.3% to 1.8%.
* Slashed the overall number of PCR-confirmed infections (COVID + other respiratory viruses) from 22% in placebo to 9.3% with azelastine.
Compare that to the COVID shots: expensive, rushed, mandated, and now known to have diminishing efficacy against new variants and side effects. The vaccines were pitched as our salvation but couldn’t stop infection or transmission.
Yet a cheap generic nasal spray, already FDA-approved for allergies, outperformed them in a head-to-head prevention trial.
And it comes with minimal side effects. Most complaints were mild: bitter taste, nosebleeds, or tiredness. No serious adverse events were linked to the spray
Low odds either way.

So, if I snort Antifreeze I won’t get covid?.............
Just for grins, start the rumor that the active ingredient is bleach.
Big Pharma lied to us?
Say it ain’t so, Joe!
You couldn’t get this stuff in America several years ago- i used to order it from Israel and it worked-
signed- GLA- free from the Kung Flu vax...
Quick, back to the lab! We need a new virus. /Fauci impression
only Astepro Allergy (0.15% azelastine) is currently available over the counter
thanks
bkmk
Verbatim, that echoes ‘injecting bleach’.
LOL
They need to do a control with normal saline spray. It could be that just keeping the nasal mucosa moist and clean cuts the infection rate substantially.
Strike that, they did.

I think azelastine is Rx only in the States.
I had 3 jabs of experimental vax plus I use cheap saline nasal spray every so often to control pollen allergy.
Never got COVID needing treatment. I have no clue if it was the saline water or the vax.
I do the saline thing too.
Never had the vax.
Never had the covid....................
“So, if I snort Antifreeze I won’t get covid?.............”
You will not get COVID... However, it’s still possible that they mark you as “died with COVID” even though you died from antifreeze poisoning.
