I got 500 12-mg ivermectin tablets and 50 200-mg hydroxychloroquine tablets from India in December for $209. They shorted me 50 of the ivermectin, but otherwise I was pretty happy with the service and the price.

May the politicizing of COVID (from all sides) finally come to an end.

Too late for that.

I came down with something late at night on January 6th, which is the same day my 73 yo BIL succumbed to Covid after 2 weeks on the ventilator. Unfortunately, that fact is in the back of my mind as I fight this virus off. My symptoms were fever; head, eye and muscle aches; fatigue; scratchy throat; and mild cough.

I immediately started taking ivermectin as well as my usual vitamins and supplements like zinc, quercetin, vitamins C & D, and NAC. Three days later I’m feeling better. I still have fatigue but now my cough is productive, which is a little concerning.

I’m 68 with mild hypertension, a BMI of 25, and a history of at least 4 bouts of bronchitis.

“She will tell you if you have any issues breathing lay on your stomach. No matter how uncomfortable you are lay on your stomach.”

A friend of mine caught it December 2020. While he was at home his wife had him doing this, there wasn’t a lot of other things to do. I’d told them to get quercetin, zinc, D to see if it could help any. His blood oxygen kept dropping though, eventually into the 70s. He had to be hospitalized, ventilated. Lasted about three weeks. Three of his relatives caught it at the same time, killed them too.

Sorry to hear it but my biggest take on all of this is the same thing I have always thought every flu season, every day when I drive over 200 miles commuting to work, etc. We cannot live our life in fear. We are all going to die eventually and some of us earlier than others. Some things kill one person and never touch another. My wife’s cousin has basically locked herself in her home for over two years living a miserable life. I have never stopped going to work, never stopped shopping, ate out at any restaurant I could find open, just lived my life. Had COVID at least once with no major issues even though I am overweight, have type 2 diabetes, have a blood clot in my lung, and high blood pressure. I will live until I die and be satisfied with the fact I have provided for my family, have a great wife, raised 3 great children, and have the best dog in the world. I am a Christian and refuse to live in fear.

“I have never stopped going to work, never stopped shopping, ate out at any restaurant I could find open, just lived my life. “

And more should have had the opportunity to do that, destroying millions of small businesses from forced closure will echo for years. I was out every day since this started. I took reasonable precautions, I was a long veteran of being careful about crowds due to an autoimmune disease. But everybody shouldn’t be forced to live that way. I wore masks when businesses insisted, but otherwise I didn’t. I suspect that I had probably had covid in January 2020 before we even realized that it was here. I you were lucky you got a mild case. If not it could kill, as it did one of my friends. Life must go on and politicians grossly abused the power we have granted them.
