Ivermectin ineffective in preventing severe COVID-19-study
Reuters ^ | February 18, 2022

Posted on 02/18/2022 3:31:07 PM PST by Coronal

Malaysian researchers found that treatment with the anti-parasite drug ivermectin did not prevent patients with COVID-19 from becoming severely ill in a randomized clinical trial published in the JAMA Internal Medicine journal on Friday.

The researchers said their findings do not support the use of ivermectin for patients with COVID-19.

The study enrolled 490 patients with mild to moderate illness at 20 hospitals and a COVID-19 quarantine center in Malaysia. Everyone received standard care; half the group also received ivermectin.

Severe disease developed in 21.6% of the patients given ivermectin and in 17.3% of those who received only standard care, the researchers said.They defined severe disease as requiring oxygen to help with breathing.

There were no statistically significant differences between the groups in rates of ICU admission, need for mechanical ventilation, or death, according to the study.

“...Ivermectin, Zinc and Doxycycline...”

I have several of those kits ready-to-go.

At the conclusion of the January 14 BIRD conference, Dr. Lawrie delivered a monumental closing address that should be recorded among the most important speeches in the annals of medical history. Dr. Lawrie spoke out at considerable personal risk, since her livelihood and career largely rely on the very agencies she targeted for criticism. Dr. Lawrie began by endorsing the miraculous efficacy of IVM.

"Had ivermectin been employed in 2020 when medical colleagues around the world first alerted the authorities to its efficacy, millions of lives could have been saved, and the pandemic with all its associated suffering and loss brought to a rapid and timely end."

Dr. Lawrie told the audience that the suppression of ivermectin was a signal that Pharma’s pervasive corruption had turned a medical cartel against patients and against humanity.

"The story of ivermectin has highlighted that we are at a remarkable juncture in medical history. The tools that we use to heal and our connection with our patients are being systematically undermined by relentless disinformation stemming from corporate greed. The story of ivermectin shows that we as a public have misplaced our trust in the authorities and have underestimated the extent to which money and power corrupts."

********************

Leading doctors and scientists, including some of the nation’s most highly published and experienced physicians and front-line COVID specialists like McCullough, Kory, Ryan Cole, David Brownstein, and Risch believe that Dr. Fauci’s suppression of early treatment and off-patent remedies was responsible for up to 80 percent of the deaths attributed to COVID. All five doctors independently told me the same thing. The relentless malpractice of deliberately withholding early effective COVID treatments, of forcing the use of toxic remdesivir, may have unnecessarily killed up to 500,000 Americans in hospitals.

Dr. Kory says so plainly: “Dr. Fauci’s suppression of early treatments will go down in history as having caused the death of a half a million Americans in the ICU.”

Side note: Reuters and the AP both serve the NWO ruling pukes. They want everyone but themselves and those who serve them to take the jab.

These were older high risk patients after nearly a week following diagnosis. Did not see if they were given anything else typically used in treatment protocols such as FLCCC, Zelenko, Marik, etc. Sounds rigged to me. Over 100+ studies prove otherwise.

Dont believe it. Overwhelming scientific studies show otherwise.

Only other factor that could be important is that the test sample population of people being mostly asian pacific.

Good catch. Big difference between “prevent” and “treat.”

Ivermectin has been given to ~80 million people for parasites, the population of Africa is 1.2 billion. So like 6% top. So stop with your first world ignorance, and do some real research. Not Infowars, not 4Chan, and unfortunately not FR.

"Why didn’t they prescribe it to healthy people"

Because that's not what they were testing? You can't give Ivermectin to all 5 billion people on the planet, but you could give it to most of the ppl who get sick. So it is useful to know whether it works if you give it to someone post positive.

Exactly.

My understanding is that ivermectin itself doesn’t treat covid directly, but that it works to deliver zinc where it needs to go to treat the covid. It’s my understanding that quercetin may do the same thing as ivermectin.

Ivermectin alone doesn’t do much to fight covid.

When I had covid in January, I used ivermectin and quercetin, along with zinc and D and C and B. It may have helped but I’m not a scientific study.

HCQ is the zinc ionophore, like quercetin.

Ivermectin is a protease inhibitor and it is believed that it works to block the spike protein from being able to enter the cell.

They work differently, which is why HCQ and ivermectin can be used in tandem if one does not work.

99.9% survivable for people without comorbidities.

Don’t need a vaccine. Don’t need ivermectin.

RFKJR says using a dosage way below the needed amount is how they rig studies.
