Interestingly, it also appears to have anti-cancer effects: https://www.labiotech.eu/medical/prostate-cancer-parasite-norway/

Fendbendazole is also an anti-parasite drug with apparent anti-cancer properties, and I wonder if it would similarly be effective against various viruses like Nitazoxanide? https://www.canceractive.com/article/antiworm-drug%20for%20animals%20effective%20at%20killing%20cancer%20cells

Actually there is a lot of research done on old drugs to be used for different purposes. Years ago my Dad was involved in a startup company that did just that. They ran computer programs on all the testing, the side affects the serendipitous, results as well as the intended results. Since the drugs have passed safety experiments, approval for the new use is much simpler and quicker. That particular company was lost on 9/11. Many others are doing the same research. A drug that comes to mind is one originally used for spinal injection is now injected into the eye to halt macular degeneration.

Interesting.

Where was your dad’s company located if you don’t mind my asking?

Many thanks!

I have been taking an old drug, which has shown broad spectrum anti-viral activity against AIDS, Ebola, Marburg, Hep B and C, and coronaviruses MERS and SARS.

I have stopped three colds and one flu dead in their tracks with this drug. The problem is that it is an old drug, and has long-ago lost it’s patent, so repurposing it, is an expensive proposition in that a drug company which does spend the money for studies will not profit on it.

I have been a career scientist and did in-depth research on ways I could minimize my risks of colds and flus. This old drug, has had a marvelous safety profile, in that it has been given to millions of children and pregnant women and is considered in the most safe drug category. It is widely available, and it is prescribed as an anti-parasitical for cryptosporidia, c. difficile, etc. It can be found online and is relatively cheap, and I’d encourage everyone to do their own research:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitazoxanide
And has been initially been found to be effective against 2019 NCoV: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41422-020-0282-0
https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/925224
I’d prefer remdesavir, in the event I get this virus, but it is not likely there will be enough to go around, in time, so I think this is the next best thing.

The company had an offices in one of the World Trade center buildings. My Dad was part of a group that provided startup money. They were also involved in medical devices. Dad was a chemical & electrical engineer.

Thanks for keeping it lite.
My allergies are kicking in right now so I got the sinus thing going a bit and my throat gets a little irritated.
Trees and mold are all around me where I am in King Co. WA.
I’m Just keeping to myself for a few days to make sure it does not turn into something else...
I had a mild cough a few weeks back, it was like a mild flue (a cold) but no fever.
I’m glad that I am not coughing today.
Yeah, reading these threads makes it feel like death is knocking on the door.
It’s just best to be extra cautious as far as I am concerned.
I wash the heck out of my hands and keep away from others for awhile until I know it’s just allergies.

I hate to hear that.

Hopefully the employees all got out.

We will need to re-use that knowledge before this is all over.

I'm happy to share what I have discovered, with others. Glad you found it useful. I've been wrestling with posting it or not, but things look to be getting dicey. Please do your own research, and do not be swayed by other people's rumors about what may, or may not, be effective.

Also, there is a fair amount of hysteria being whipped up about this virus, for obvious political reasons, but better to be safe than sorry.

Much bigger than usual price discrepancy between GoodRx and independent online pharmacy. Often, GoodRx prices are lower, with well-known drugs. Wonder what’s going on here, especially with an older, non-brand drug.

Do not fail to check this out. Blows away everything you saw so far on the coronavirus and shows the mass hypocrisy at the top world wide over this known, man made, virus since 1981.  It's now being used as a means toward absolute control of populations.  Martial law, gun confiscation, etc.  Also seems the powers behind world conquest feel the need to push this part of the agenda forward 20 years. Images below are pages from the Dean Koontz NOVEL “Eyes of Darkness” PUBLISHED IN 1981!!!

Another product I checked is very low also at alldaychemist compared to the Indian Pharmacy I normally use.
