Illinois Family's Attorney Says Ivermectin 'Working' For Grandfather With COVID-19
FOX 32 ^ | November 9, 2021

Posted on 11/10/2021 1:14:00 PM PST by nickcarraway

"Mr. Ng is as good as dead in the picture, which was taken on November 4. And at that point the hospital still wouldn't give the Ivermectin," said family attorney Kirstin Erickson. After further legal wrangling and the doctor presenting a negative COVID test, the treatment — a series of 15 daily shots — began Monday night.

The Ng's attorney claims Sun is showing signs of improvement already.

"And today he passed a breathing test that he hadn't been able to pass in the last three weeks. And he looked more alert and aware. So I would say that the first dose of Ivermectin is actually working and is effective," Erickson said.

So, are the media and the establishment responsible for suffering and deaths because they denied a person that treatment that works?

Does this mean that we can sue Facebook and Twitter?

After all, they claim to be censoring the information to protect us. The are consciously doing this. What if they were wrong all along?

Ivermectin is the most effective treatment available.

Sure seems that way. I have nothing but anger and dismay at all the phonies crapping on IVM using rigged data and innuendo. There is a high chance that this entire pandemic could have been shut down in a few months time had anyone with any real power just buckled down and did a couple simple clinical trials. We had 100,000+ a day contracting the virus it would have been fast, cheap and easy to enroll a large clinical trial study.

Instead they poo-pooed on the idea and still pour scorn at the mere mention of re-purposing cheap generic drugs with known anti-viral properties. Worse than just poo on it, they actively subvert the use, they pulled stockpiles off pharmacy shelves, encouraged pharmacists to rat out doctors, and government subsidy beholden institutions were all issuing strict marching orders NOT to try something that shows tremendous potential. There is no scientific explanation for any of this which leaves only financial and political motives as explanation.

Even if ivermectin has no effect on covid at all, the mere fact it is a cheap and proven safe drug and would provide comfort to the patient makes it worth administering to someone on their deathbed. What I cannot understand is why, after countries who began using ivermectin had covid cases and deaths plummet, the CDC demands to know how it works as an antiviral. I am an ignorant man who only completed 9th grade in public school but it seems to me, under the circumstances, that we would start prescribing ivermectin, vitamin d, and zinc now and argue over how and why it works later.

Well that’s the worst of it. It is such an extremely safe medication - it is safer than Tylenol. It has virtually no contraindications, and you only need to take it for a few days. There is no logical medical or scientific reason for all the levers of power to have come down so hard against IVM. It is so obviously about something other than helping people and saving lives that it’s sickening. And hopefully there will be a reckoning because enough high profile people have made it well known to the public at large.

All that said I cannot “prove” it works because I cannot run a study, and nobody has been empowered to run a large study. In fact they have intentionally NOT studied it when as I said it would have been fast, cheap and easy to enroll a large clinical trial 12-18 months ago. But I believe it can work wonders. Maybe not 100% but then nothing is. I’ve heard enough ‘anecdotes’ and seen enough of the smaller trial data to have formed my own opinion.

One small but simple trial took people who were in quarantine and gave half of them IVM. Those who got IVM cleared the virus 2.5x times faster than the non-IVM group. It was a small trial but that’s a big improvement so the results come with high confidence.

Two weeks ago Ivermectin saved our son-in-law who got bad COVID (his doctors would not treat him out of the hospital, so he just got worse). When he arrived at the hospital for the monoclonal antibodies his oxygen was too low for the infusion so they sent him directly to the ER which sent him directly to the ICU.

In the ICU he refused Remdesivir when he found out what it was, just after they put the I.V. needle in and were hooking up the bag to dispense it. The medical staff in the ICU told him the respirator was next. I won't go into the miraculous details of his 5 days in ICU, but he managed to get Ivermectin and made a rapid recovery. He was out of bed and out of the ICU the day after being given the Ivermectin.

He has been back at work all this week (4 days out of the hospital) and is feeling great, but still a bit weak in the legs. He is a survivor from nearly fatal cancer and invasive surgery, is 59, and is immune compromised from chemo.

By the way, the "saving" doctor ignored the "official protocol" of the hospital/CDC. This doctor is no longer at the hospital. He used the FLCCC protocol instead.

We give God the glory that He had just the right people at the right place at the right time to save our son-in-law's life!

By the way, our son-in-law is “unvaxxed”.

Mr. Ng is a 71-yr-old man that has been on a ventilator since October 19. That will be a tremendous challenge to treat successfully, but Ivermectin gives him the best chance to recover. Best administered early, Ivermectin acts to prevent viral replication in the early incubation and viral replication phase of COVID-19, but an exciting aspect of Ivermectin is its potent anti-inflammatory action potentially having a role in the treatment of late stage COVID-19.

There are examples of critically ill, elderly patients on ventilators for many days that made a remarkable, rapid recovery once treatment began with Ivermectin, so I wish him well.

It's unfortunate that Mr. Ng is stuck in a hospital that undoubtedly is not adding the adjunct medications that have been found to improve the outcome in the treatment with Ivermectin.

We're extremely fortunate in the Houston area to have a hospital (United Memorial Medical Center) with doctors that implement the full MATH+ treatment protocol for critically ill patients with COVID-19 developed by the wonderful doctors of the Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance (FLCCC). That hospital has reduced the mortality rate by at least 50% using Ivermectin and the MATH+ treatment protocol according to Dr. Joseph Varon, MD, FACP, FCCP, FCCM, FRSM (Chief of Staff and Chief of Critical Care Services at UMMC).

What if they were wrong all along?

They were and they knew that they were, they denied the treatment anyway. Criminal Act. Period.

My 95 year old father was diagnosed with Covid19 in December 2020. Local doctor prescribed 3mg of Ivermectin 4X per day for 3 days and heavy D-3, Zinc and a over the counter decongestant. (We gave him fresh squeezed orange juice with juice of 1/2 a lemon and fresh grated ginger) By the 4th day he had no symptoms and he recovered.

He did die in March but he did not die of Covid and he die in his sleep at home in his own bed.

We had 4 ladies in around the clock care for over a year. He had heart trouble and bypass surgery over 15 years ago, pace maker put in about 6 year ago and he had Pick's disease.

Fabulous story! We need more gutsy doctors to stand up to the system and use protocols that save lives!

Good for him. I got my supply of horse paste as a vax antidote in case I end up having to get jabbed. And I know how to do ratios so I’m not going to OD on it.
