Take Ivermectin long before you have to go to a hospital.
When my husband recently went in for an emergency appendectomy, he stashed 5 days worth of ivm (along with zinc, etc) in his pocket “just in case” he ended up with covid and stuck in the hospital. I was able to stay with him in recovery, but if he had covid, I would not have been allowed to see him.
My friend had taken 5 days of ivermectin but still had to be taken to ER. Also was given steroids and antibiotics 3 days before O2 dropped very low — to 75 — and was hospitalized. Tested positive for Covid and also pneumonia. 🙏
