How to Prepare for COVID (and How Not To)
American Thinker. com ^ | September 8, 2021 | Robert Jones

Posted on 09/08/2021 3:04:39 AM PDT by Kaslin

As I write this, both my wife and I have COVID. My wife came down with COVID symptoms approximately two weeks ago. My symptoms started approximately a week ago. Our diagnoses were confirmed at a local clinic.

Both my wife and I are unvaccinated. This is because we believed that we would inevitably catch COVID, and we wanted to prepare in the best way possible for that eventuality rather than rely upon an endless series of COVID "vaccines" with limited effectiveness and unknown side-effects. Also, we wanted to live the remainder of our lives not in fear of catching COVID, but with natural immunity to that disease.

The purpose of this article is to discuss — from a layperson's perspective — how we prepared for COVID and what we could have done better in that regard.

It is widely recognized that early treatment is key with COVID. What this means is that everyone needs to know ASAP whether he has it. Unfortunately, we could have done much better in that regard. When my wife started having COVID-like symptoms, we looked for COVID testing sites but found that they were far away; overloaded; or using the PCR test, which takes three to five days (at least at our local testing sites) for a result.

I wonder where/how he got prescription for Ivermectin? I haven’t had any luck. Disappointing how this is yet another example of system intentionally withholding treatment-that makes Covid a thousand times more scary. A death sentence when it doesn’t necessarily have to be. Even the Regeneron wording is laced with language that ultimately seem like threats of vax or else. I wonder why American Thinker writer used a pseudonym? I hope they are doing well, and provide an update. I take the supplements recommended here and in many places but live in constant fear, especially since system seems out to kill us. I wish could find doctor to prescribe ivermectin. At least in Florida they opened antibody clinics. Seems only hope.

Prepare to not taste anything for maybe a week. Rice cakes and water. Yay.

No prescription needed. OTC. Order online.

But where can a person find it, with some sort of reliability? I’ve been scouring the India markets and I’m not confident with any of them.

Try one of the doctors who belong to the FLCCC Alliance. That's what I did. I found one such doctor only a few miles from my home and received a prescription for Ivermectin from him, which was filled, without question, by the local CVS pharmacy.

Myfreedoctor.com ..but they are inundated. Push health app.

The article is important because it shows the pitfalls

The freeper whose son was on the verge of a vent also shows the pitfalls. Girlfriend skated through Covid but he almost ended up on a vent

Covid is capricious..and relentless. You do not know until you get it how your body will respond

Have a plan

And if the plan is the infusion try to get all the info ahead of time on how you are going to get it

The idea of a plan for the ChiCom Virus is a good one.

The example illustrated here is a poor one and how these people got lucky to some extent.

They were having trouble obtaining the Refeneron infusion but in the end lucked out there and also had obtained Ivermectin.

Joe Rogan had a similar plan. Somehow he had everything going in 24 hours: Regenron, Ivermectin, vitamin IVs, etc.

In Florida, Gov. DeSantis is pushing hard to make the infusions available. It’s making the commies here upset 😭.

Cvs has the rapid test but out of stock online

Some stores in my area have it. Seems like a good plan to have the test since you only have 10 days to get that infusion

There is also a shot that you can get from a pharmacy. Found one pharmacy in my area that does it

You do not need an Rx to get the Ivermectin from the site he posted.

“The freeper whose son was on the verge of a vent also shows the pitfalls.”

Yes - that was us. I regret not forcing the issue more and getting him early treatment. SO THANKFUL that he is doing better. “Yeah - they even let me sit in a chair for an hour today...” (Imagine - the highlight of your day is being allowed to sit in a chair!?)

As you say - get on top of the symptoms right away. Even at the risk of getting infected yourself - check on others and OBSERVE how they are doing. Don’t trust their texts of “Yeah - I’m doing okay.”

Not a medical professional..but I would add it is often recommended to get on D3 and zinc perhaps quercetin zinc now...don’t wait for diagnosis. In Texas You can get rapid test in most urgent care centers..call first to verify. Also verify you can get monoclonal antibody (regeneron) script if Covid positive. In Texas you cannot get regeneron if you wait too long. Get it fast after diagnosis. Here there are setups across the state.thanks Abbot. Not a bad idea as well to pre order the rapid test to have at your house, and have reliable thermometer and blood oxy finger oxygen monitor. After diagnosis check temp and oxy levels at least 4 times a day. Ask your doc when to get to ER re temp and oxy level. Mercola advises to have a nebulizer on hand, as he is a fan of hydrogen peroxide in nebulizer under some circumstances. Google for more details. Be prepared. You can buy quercetin zinc from Walmart online or Sams or Amazon.
