Ivermectin crushes Delhi cases

By Justus R. Hope, MD

Just three weeks after adding Ivermectin, Delhi now leads India out of the deadly second surge of the COVID pandemic. Cases that had peaked at 28,395 on April 20 plummeted nearly 80% to just 6,430 on May 15. Deaths peaked May 4, and now they are also down 25%.

On May 10, the Indian State of Goa adopted an even more ambitious policy of preemptive Ivermectin for all adults in the state. The Chief Minister of Goa is Dr. Pramod Sawant, a progressive 49-year-old physician persuaded by science. In particular, he read Dr. Pierre Kory's Dr. Tess Lawrie's and Dr. Andrew Hill's robust meta-analyses. As a direct result, Goa has seen a drop in cases from 3,124 the day after the announcement to 1,314 five days later.

Meanwhile, three other Indian states have followed Goa's lead in adding Ivermectin: Uttarkhand, Karnataka, and Uttar Pradesh. And, as expected, they have seen a drop in new daily cases as well, with Uttar Pradesh down nearly 75% from a peak of 37,944 just four days after they began following the April 20 AIIMS guidance to just 10,505 on May 16.

The tragic story in all this is that the Indian state of Tamil Nadu installed a new leader on May 7, 2021. He suddenly reversed their state's decision to adopt Ivermectin. Readers of my book all know about Peruvian President Sagasti's fateful decision to outlaw Ivermectin. Before taking power, the COVID deaths had dropped 14 fold to almost nothing with Ivermectin use. However after Sagasti was elected, Ivermectin was stopped, and deaths roared back at 13 fold.

Peru paid the price in skyrocketing cases and 78,000 preventable deaths. Tamil Nadu's Chief Minister, MK Stalin, also chose to forgo Ivermectin. Instead, he ordered tens of thousands of doses of Remdesivir, a drug that sells for 3,000 dollars per dose. So now Tamil Nadu's cases are rocketing as well.

In contrast to Goa's young physician Chief Minister who had read the latest science on Ivermectin's dramatic effect on reducing COVID death, MK Stalin is a 68-year-old non-physician socialist and atheist who is towing the party line by forbidding Ivermectin.

Stalin now requests allocations for some 20,000 daily doses of Remdesivir for the Tamil Nadu citizens despite the science that shows no reduction in COVID death with this drug. Remdesivir is an anti-viral agent given late in the disease, only after hospitalization when the Cytokine storm has set in and when anti-virals have lost their effectiveness.

At that later stage, steroids, anticoagulants, and oxygen are crucially important. Also, Ivermectin has shown a remarkable ability to reduce inflammation at that stage, with some being liberated from the ventilator with just one dose.

Tamil Nadu cases have continued to rise from April 20 to May 15. During the same time, Delhi's cases eased 78% while Tamil Nadu's cases tripled.

Twenty thousand doses of Remdesivir cost 60 million dollars, while 20,000 doses of Ivermectin go for a few hundred. Where is a developing country getting the 60 million dollars a day to purchase the Remdesivir? Why is their leader throwing away a cheap drug, Ivermectin, that has saved lives in other countries?

Why would Stalin choose money over lives?

As a humanitarian and a board-certified practicing physician, I know we can influence other Indian states to adopt Ivermectin. With the help of groups like C19, the FLCCC, and the EBMC led by scientists of the caliber of Dr. Peter McCullough, Dr. George Fareed, Dr. Pierre Kory, and Dr. Tess Lawrie, let us all join together to get the word out. Ivermectin must be instituted globally to end not just the carnage in India but for the rest of the world.

This is life-saving information that everyone must learn now about how this Nobel Prize-winning drug, Ivermectin, can immediately bring an end to the pandemic. Tamil Nadu citizens have a right to know the truth. It is everyone’s human right to access it, and it is a drug for all of humanity. So help us fight the corruption and censorship. Please share the book, Ivermectin for the World.

This must be flawed. Our cadre of most excellent Doctors on Freerepublic say ivermectin is worthless.

It’s obvious that the FR anti-vaxxer death cult butchers are writing propaganda and posting it here. This couldn’t possibly be true. It’s a deadly virus that kills everyone it touches. Ivermectin couldn’t possibly fix it.

I think what FR's big Pharma whores are really worried about is not so much that Ivermectin is worthless so much as it is inexpensive.

There's big money in forcing people to take an expensive shot every year. You can't have people staying healthy by taking a few dollars worth of pills. Cuts into the profits.

Almost missed the “/sarc” tag.
But, how could anyone miss with an article by “Justus R. Hope, MD?”

A little editing might help the reader grasp the message.

“Why would Stalin choose money over lives?”

Pretty much guaranteed “Stalin” is getting kickbacks for his insistence on killing Ivermectin in favor of Remdesivir

The worry is much deeper than the present. HCQ and Ivermectin are universal therapeutics for treating all manner of corona respiratory viruses. This is what drives Big Pharma crazy. They want to keep peddling specific vaccines to treat specific viruses. Don’t you see it’s their ‘Golden Goose.’

Why these turds haven’t been flushed from the FR community is beyond me. The game started with hyping covid (we all know who they are) then hyping the jab. Pathetic that it has been allowed to continue.

As I’ve noted before, in a year or so, when everyone willing to be vaccinated is vaccinated, expect to hear something like the following:

“Of we knew that Ivermectin was very promising for both protection against the virus and early treatment, however, we felt it more important to maintain support for vaccine development and implementation, so we decided to hold off until the world was fully vaccinated.”

If nothing else, I sure hope that India and other countries build up the infrastructure needed to do their own first-rate tests, because right now the only studies have been relatively small (even though they’ve all pointed in the same direction). Relying on the West, where healthcare is controlled by special interests who think they know FAR MORE than actually know (at least in many areas), is suicide for governments that actually do care about their people.

Care to enlighten us as to why this is an inaccurate portrayal of ivermectin efficacy?

What’s your objection to ivermectin, specifically? It’s been proven effective in at least one metastudy...

Most of our doctors get an A+ for effort, but an F for results. Most cowered in the face of political pressure to not use ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine. God Bless those who had the courage to use them.

I also wonder whether the problem with the corporate pharmaceutical industry is also the theoretical framework upon which all their medicine is built. Could it be that the current theoretical model about the nature of viruses is incorrect? This type of problem in science has happened in the past and is well documented in Kuhn’s The Structure of Scientific Revolutions:

https://www.uky.edu/~eushe2/Pajares/Kuhn.html

This question is being explored by a group of doctors and researchers in a new book, Virus Mania. Here is a description of the book by one of its authors, a NZ physician, Samantha (Sam) Bailey:

How has the medical profession become so ignorant. This med has been around for years and was proven to work in March 2020 but was ignored,,,,,Where in the hell was Dr. Fauci, CDC and NIH when HCQ and Ivermectin were proven to work in early 2020?????????????

I have zero objection to ivermectin. I do understand the FDA’s EAU goes away with an effective treatment (assuming the premise that we live under the rule of law).

The resident professional ghouls on FR do have issue with ivermectin.

Better still, ask them, “Care to enlighten us as to why this is an inaccurate portrayal of ivermectin effectiveness? That’ll have them scratching their heads.
