Do the NIH and WHO COVID treatment recommendations need to be fixed?
Trial Site News ^ | May 16, 2021 | Steve Kirsch

India, Brazil, and most other countries all rely on COVID treatment guidance from the two organizations that people most trust for medical advice, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the World Health Organization (WHO).

Yet following the COVID guidance of these organizations is failing to prevent the unnecessary death of millions of people worldwide.

Is the guidance provided by these organizations correct? Or is there a possibility it could be harmful to follow their guidance?

This is now a matter of urgent public interest because India recently adopted ivermectin as standard of care for early treatment of COVID, which is exactly opposite to the WHO recommendation.

...

Key question: Do we really need to wait for the perfect, definitive high quality study? I don’t think so. I would claim that waiting for definitive high quality studies in a pandemic before making recommendations is inappropriate. Other doctors I know call it “unethical” or “criminal.”

In the case of HCQ, for example, the medical community embraced a study published in The Lancet on hydroxychloroquine which concluded that HCQ caused more harm than benefit. The first author is a professor at Harvard Medical School and it was published in a top journal. And the result confirmed what everyone thought: that HCQ didn’t work. ...

There was just one problem. That study, that everyone relied on as definitive, was rapidly attacked by scientists and subsequently retracted by the journal. That’s what happens to true junk science: it gets retracted.

Conversely, none of the so-called low-quality studies showing these drugs are effective have been attacked as fraudulent or inaccurate and none have been retracted. So why shouldn’t we believe them?

It is ironic that the high-quality study that all the scientists believed, rather than the “low-quality’’ studies, was the only paper that was retracted.

This is a long piece, but it lays out the best current information regarding therapeutics in a single location that I've seen so far.

The author is a silicon valley type, but has been funding research on re-purposing existing drugs since last year.

There has to be more behind the NIH and WHO insisting against therapeutics than only endangering the EUA's for the vaccines. That's a part of it, but there has to be more to it as well.

Yeah, it’s noticeable that the “knock” against these treatments is only that the studies weren’t good enough.

Well, why weren’t there better studies then?

Hey, there are a few other treatments in stage 3 trials now that are doing VERY well.

Sure, they are hoping for worldwide depopulation through sterilization and withholding treatment.

There’s no question at this point that these “work”. The only question is “how well”.

The WHO and NIH cannot remain silent. At the very least, they need to review the data and provide their opinion publicly.

” they need to review the data “
They did and they said “ This data from these studies isn’t good enough.”

To me, the base problem is that “good” studies are very, very expensive. Only the big guys can do them and they want money promised up front first.
Which Trump did.
IMHO Trump looked at our system and decided the fastest and best way to go was to get the vaccines out quick.
You fight a battle with the troops you have and that was what Trump’s troops would do best with.

Other parts include the need for an emergency to exist in order to obtain an EUA. By denying, withholding available medications, people died who would otherwise have lived.

By using fake PCR tests (they don’t test for the presence of Covid), they could declare people with flu or pneumonia Covid patients and withhold treatment from them. They needed bodies and death counts and while they faked some, they caused others (putting people sick with respiratory illnesses in nursing homes).

They needed to panic the public into accepting experimental vaccines which in the past 15 years of research failed to produce a SAFE VACCINE. Animal trials sickened and died so they were never able to make the technology work for Hep C, HIV, and yes, other coronaviruses.

So it was important to them to convince the public they would die without treatment if they didn’t get the vaccine. For a year people who sickened were told that there were no appropriate medications. Ivermectin/HCQ etc. were FDA approved, well tolerated and proven safe but the CDC/WHO would not allow the vulnerable at risk of dying the ‘right to try’ it.

Normally they would allow doctors to write ‘off labels’ prescriptions, especially if it’s an emergency (e.g., ivermectin for covid, even if that illness is not on the drug ‘label’). After decades in use, the CDC/WHO wouldn’t allow those medications an EUA like they gave the failed Covid ‘vaccines’.

Imagine what an impact it had on the public to take a perilously ill patient to the doctor and have the doctor send them home with the instruction, “Go home and come back when you need hospitalization”). ALmost all placed on ventilators died - it was a death sentence to go home and wait.

This traumatized the public into believing Covid was far more hazardous than it was. The fact that the PCR has a 97% false positive rate meant others with treatable respiratory illnesses were misidentified as covid and also denied life saving medications. And hence, they met the second requirement for vaccine EUA (it’s an emergency) while panicking the public to accept unacceptable vaccines.

Pretty sure that was unprecedented, as was much during the past year.

The NIH and WHO COVID treatment reccomendations need to be ignored. Unfortunately, most doctors don’t seem to have the time or inclination to read the actual studies themselves, and unfortunately they take what the NIH and WHO say as gospel. Vaccines, yes. Timely other treatments like HCQ + zinc and/or ivermectin, yes. This is not an “either/or” situation (or at least it shouldn’t be.)

That’s their story and they’re sticking to it.

Just wondering, do any of you have personal experience with Quercetin as a preventative?

It did not work for me as I caught Covid. Still taking it, however with the zinc as this thing runs it’s course.

I’ve been taking quercetin and zinc (along with several other supplements) for a little more than a year. I didn’t get COVID but have no idea if that had anything to do with it. Figured it might make it less severe even if I did get COVID. I’m vaccinated now but still using up my supply of supplements, figuring they do no harm and may have some benefits beyond COVID protection. I’m not sure how many I’m going to keep using in the long term— Vitamin D for sure, probably fish oil which my diet lacks, probably some of the antioxidants which I attribute to relieving elbow pain I’ve had for several years.

Much suffering and death will continue unless they are updated.

Covid and it’s vaccine are the “population control” (read: mass death) the elites (read: Bill Gates) have wanted to keep the vermin (read: humans) from destroying Mommy Earth.

I picked up a couple of tubes at the TSC in Santa Clarita about that time. Turned out I didn’t need it, as it was easy to get a scrip for the human version, at least back in January.

Used it for prophylaxis, had a blood panel to check for liver enzymes at the doc’s recommendation, and everything checked out fine. No side effects at all.

Keeping a supply of the pills on hand in case of need.
