Repurposed drugs that have been shown to prevent or treat COVID-19 may be prescribed by physicians, the Florida Department of Health said in its new COVID-19 guidance for health care practitioners.
The guidance, published on Feb. 24, says that health care practitioners are encouraged to provide early treatment for COVID-19 patients with federally approved generic drugs that they find will work. That’s in addition to the outpatient treatments granted emergency authorization usage (EUA) for people at risk of developing a serious illness.
“When recommending COVID-19 treatment options for patients’ individualized health care needs, physicians should exercise their individual clinical judgment and expertise based on their patient’s needs and preferences,” the guidance states. “These options may include emerging treatments backed by quality evidence, with appropriate patient informed consent, including off-label use or as part of a clinical trial.”
The new guidance is an effort by Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis to offer health care practitioners protection from lawsuits. He said that it’s important for doctors to be able to have access to these drugs.
“We want people to be able to have a right to access these medications, especially if they’re in a situation where nothing else has worked,” DeSantis said in a video announcing the new changes to the COVID-19 guidance.
The guidance also states that doctors can make a report to the Agency for Health Care Administration if their hospital prevents them from treating their patients who wish to try certain medications not recommended by the federal health agencies.
“So now doctors who practice medicine in the way that they think is most appropriate for their patients, when they receive pushback from hospitals, we have an avenue for them to file a complaint with our Agency for Health Care Administration,” said Florida Surgeon General Dr. Joseph Ladapo.
Florida is the first and only state to go against the Centers for Disease and Prevention’s (CDC) recommendation of staying home and only going to the emergency department when symptoms become severe unless the individual is at high risk, then they may be eligible for treatment with an authorized antiviral or monoclonal antibody.
The CDC did not reply to a request by The Epoch Times for comment.
Dr. Pierre Kory, president and co-chief medical chief officer of the Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care (FLCCC) Alliance, claims that many people have died unnecessarily during the pandemic, as COVID-19 is a treatable disease. He also said that it didn’t make sense that the government continues to focus only on pushing the vaccines.
“We know there have been hundreds of thousands of deaths in the U.S. and all for a treatable disease,” Kory said at a panel discussion on COVID-19.
“We have identified effective treatments, for now two years, and those effective treatments that are widely available generic repurposed [drugs], they continue to increase. And yet, we are still trying to vaccinate people with a 2-year-old vaccine against an Omicron variant, which is absolutely absurd,” he added.
As early as March 2020, doctors at FLCCC Alliance developed a COVID-19 treatment protocol for hospitalized patients, later adding the I-MASK+ protocol, using ivermectin as a core medication for the prevention and early treatment of COVID-19 in October 2020.
Kory also alleged that the EUA antiviral drugs for early treatment of COVID-19 are toxic.
“We’re still perpetuating these toxic novel pharmaceutical company concoctions like Paxlovid and molnupiravir. Molnupiravir does not work and Paxlovid is poisonous,” Kory said.
Paxlovid can be fatal when taken with common medications such as blood thinners, statins, and some antidepressants. One component of Paxlovid prevents the breakdown of other drugs leading to an increased level of these drugs causing toxic effects.
There are also concerns that the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus that causes COVID-19 may develop resistance to the antiviral drugs because each only attacks one part of the virus instead of multiple fronts like its inexpensive federally approved competitor, ivermectin.
For an antiviral to successfully eliminate the CCP virus, it must target “two key pieces of a virus’s biological machinery, a polymerase and a protease, both of which are essential for viral replication,” according to an article in Nature.
Molnupiravir, developed by Merck and Ridgeback Biotherapeutics, targets only the RNA polymerase, while Pfizer’s Paxlovid just inhibits the virus’s main protease.
For a 5-day treatment course consisting of two pills per day, molnupiravir costs the United States government $530 and $700 for Paxlovid. Whereas ivermectin costs as low as $29.72 and as high as $93.77 for 20 tablets, according to GoodRx.
In a report (pdf) examining the outpatient treatments for COVID-19 from the Institute for Clinical and Economic Review (ICER), a drug-pricing research organization, the authors raised concerns about the effectiveness and safety of the drugs due to lack of long-term data.
“While the clinical trials of all four agents [Paxlovid, molunupiravir, the monoclonal antibody treatment sotrovimab, and fluvoxamine that is waiting for a EUA] demonstrate statistically significant benefits of treatment, there remains substantial uncertainty regarding the comparative effectiveness of each drug in the current U.S. landscape,” the authors wrote. “Some of this uncertainty is due to the preliminary nature of the evidence base, which for several drugs include only data that has not yet progressed through peer review.
They added, “As of January 2022, the Phase III RCT [randomized control trial] evidence for sotrovimab is only available as a pre-print (i.e., without peer review) and the evidence for Paxlovid is based on the manufacturer’s press release and the EUA factsheet for health care providers. This lack of data makes it difficult to fully evaluate these drugs.
“Such issues are compounded by each treatment being supported by only one Phase III RCT.”
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued emergency authorization usage for both molnupiravir and Paxlovid in December 2021 and recommends against ivermectin for COVID-19. The drug regulator says the “most effective ways to limit the spread of COVID-19 include getting a COVID-19 vaccine” and “following current CDC guidance.”
Pfizer and Merck did not reply to a request for comment by the time of publishing.
It seems that biden and the CDC are now pill-pushers, the guidance being that the goal is to deliver these pills at the time and place that a covid pos test result is received. This implies a Dr prescription will not be required or will be perfunctory.
Will people be made fully aware or the risks? Screened for drug interactions?
Molnuvapir is so potentially genotoxic it isnt to be used by kids, pregnant women, or even couples men or women who may intend to conceive a child within 3 months of taking the drug
And 100’s of thousands died with the remdesivor protocol, once denied an actual treatment.
The PTB have the blood of tens of thousands of people on their hands, due to their manipulations.
This is a situation in which executions, following due process, would actually be appropriate, for those who deliberately conspired to deprive us of these inexpensive, promising remedies. JMO.

FREEDOM!!!!!!!!!
It breaks my heart and enrages me that nobody will ever be called to account on this and punished for it.
I know in my heart that isn’t going to happen. In a just society, people would be held accountable. But I do not believe we live any longer in a just society.
I’m glad you posted this. I just had an appointment with my primary care doctor this past week, and I was going to ask him who would be calling the shots if I ended up in a local hospital, and would it be him. But I forgot to ask.
You answered my question by what you asked your doctor and the answer she gave. So it is the hospital Doctor that calls the shots. I’m going to call my local hospital and try to find out what their protocol is and the same for other reasonably close local hospitals. I also want to know after this FL bill is passed, will it make any difference as to the current protocols being followed by these hospitals, as I live in FL (you go Gov).
I’ll bet two pesos that they are hamstrung by CDC/Big Pharma/Biden Regime/ rules and blackmail/threats of losing medical licenses if they try to use monoclonal drugs not on the CDC list of approved ones. Even though these repurposed ones that work, like Ivermectin, and have a proven track record of safety and efficacy are already available. Big Pharma wants repurposed drugs suppressed for use as they are cheap and Big Pharma won’t make much money off of them.
MAGA!
Hundreds of thousands of people in the USA died needlessly during the COVID-19 pandemic because of the atrocious, murderous policies from the CDC, FDA, and NIH (some estimate 500,000 unnecessary deaths). These government agencies are captured organizations of the pharmaceutical industry motivated by rapacious greed. They are serial killers of thousands in the eyes of my family. We will never again trust their opinions or recommendations.
Good news. Every state should vote the same. Before the plandemic, docs often did this without repercussion. It was never a problem until “they” wanted us dead en masse.

“What “allow”? Off-label prescribing has always been OK.”
It tried getting HCQ in Florida and Georgia last year. I experienced extreme HCQ hesitancy from my doctors.
I couldn’t find anyone to sell HCQ mail order without a prescription. Then shortly before the last election I was able to order it. I had to pay extra (around $20 or $30) for express shipping. It was held up by customs for about three weeks. I wish I had bought more.
I ordered Ivermectin from oversees. It never arrived. I’m hesitant to do it again.
This article sounds positive, but I’m not optimistic. Doctors can slow roll this until you are dead. Even if you can find a doctor who will prescribe HCQ or Ivermectin once you are infected, the timing is not optimal. You should really have a stash in your medicine cabinet available the moment you think you need it.
I believe I read that Ivermectin can be taken once a month as a prophylactic. But of course, you have to get it first.
Have you ordered from this source?
My daughter purchased ivermectin. I have no use for the items on that list because in Australia citizens of pension age only pay the pharmacy prescription fee for medication prescribed by their GP. Daughter had no problems with purchase.
Thanks for the information.
