I was shocked to hear that none of the CDC, NIH, and one other government org have undertaken any analysis of repurposed drugs, instead focusing on expensive new drugs.
I’ve read a few papers where the researchers have used computer analysis of existing drugs to identify those that might be successful against COVID.

Pretty much the same reason they virtually IGNORE the people who are able to take themselves off of Insulin, by eating Keto.
They are OWNED by the drug industry (if not at the time of being ‘regulators’, they know where to look for the big bucks in retirement). So they check-in with ‘the industry’ before moving out on other options...and in this case ‘the industry’ sees an opportunity to make HUGE amounts of money, but only if the virus isn’t otherwise-dealt with.

ALL about the money and, in Covid’s case, Orange Man Bad so let more folks die on his watch.
The same “ignoring of older meds that work” while folks pay more and die faster with newer “meds” is seen in the cancer industry. Makes this true:

Fenbendazole, menbendazole, 3BP, and others come to mind. 3BP was specifically shutdown by John Hopkins(read “Tripping Over The Truth” for the story).
Fenbendazole:

Menbendazole(pinworm drug)

The greed factor with mebendazole is high. Due to its anti-cancer functions....this once cheap med is no longer.
