By now millions of Americans well-informed about the pandemic know that the cheap, safe and effective generic medicine ivermectin (IVM) was blocked for wide-scale use from the very beginning by the federal government. It was a critical but medically wrong tactic within the wait-for-the-vaccine strategy. Preventing early use of IVM has surely killed and harmed hundreds of thousands of Americans. A few courageous doctors have successfully been using IVM during the pandemic, but most feared punishment as they lost their medical freedom.

Now comes a mind-boggling statement from an attorney defending the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in a lawsuit brought by three doctors. The following statement should be copied and used by both doctors and individuals to freely prescribe and use IVM in the earliest stage of COVID infection as an antiviral. It always should have been seen as an alternative to experimental, unsafe and ineffective COVID vaccines.

Here are the amazing words of the federal attorney:

"The cited statements were not directives. They were not mandatory. They were recommendations. They said what parties should do. They said, for example, why you should not take ivermectin to treat COVID-19," Isaac Belfer, a lawyer defending FDA, told the court. "They did not say you may not do it, you must not do it. They did not say it's prohibited or it's unlawful. They also did not say that doctors may not prescribe ivermectin."

Imagine that! So, let truth prevail. Let national access to IVM begin!

I used Ivermectin I had pre-ordered from India. No loss of smell and symptoms 90% alleviated by the end of the second day I was on it. The same goes for 4 of my family members who also contracted it. We all got if from my brother-in-law at a wedding we attended. He had COVID but wasn’t diagnosed until the day after the wedding.

He refused to take Ivermectin (or anything else for that matter) and suffered for three weeks. Everyone else suffered 3 or 4 days and were completely over it in 7 days as we all took it immediately after symptoms appeared.

No.

[[”They did not say you may not do it, you must not do it. They did not say it’s prohibited or it’s unlawful]]

Don’t know if the fact prohibited ivermectin or not BUT, STATE GOVERNORS DID! They made it illegal for pharmacies to fill. Any prescriptions for ivermectin for covid.

And the medical communities went out of their way to not just obey, but tO falsely claim it was dangerous- and now those entities are trying to backtrack, hoping to avoid being sued.

They lied and people died!

[Faith65]

Just incredible!

[Mathews]

And there it is. First time I’ve heard that and it makes way more sense than anything else I’ve heard. Thank you. Do you know where I can find that FDA Rule?

[BobL]

OBVIOUSLY the problem they have is that they have NO DATA to support anything they said about Ivermectin. The next step for the lawyers is to ask the FDA why they didn’t do anything about the doctors being fired or losing their jobs, over something that the FDA now claims was ‘fine to use’.

[Bob434]

Exactly- and not to mention, pharmacists were threatened too. The left went into full out attack mode agaisnt ivermectin and threatened anyone prescribing or filling the prescriptions. People who wanted it had to resort to taking vetinary ivermectin tO try to combat covid because th3 evil ones on the left outlawed the use of it for covid, while 10’s of 1000’s died unnecessarily as a result, all so that big pharma could profit and line the pockets of elected officials as well

May all the truth come out and damn those who caused 100’s of 1000s of deaths as a result

Isaac Belfer, a lawyer defending FDA, told the court. "They did not say you may not do it, you must not do it. They did not say it's prohibited or it's unlawful. They also did not say that doctors may not prescribe ivermectin."

You know it's all lies when they lawyer up.

Nathan Thurm, gov't lawyer: We didn't say that. It's so funny that you think we said that.

[Bob434]

Post 16 has the answer.

[silverleaf]

Hospital administrators went to court to deny families access to this drug for their dying patients

Did not the federal govt require use of ONLY CDC protocol ( remdesivir and ventilators) to shield the med establishment of liability?

Why did state Pharm Boards direct their members to refuse to fill IVM scrips?

There needs to be REAL liability here and honest open access to HCQ and IVM by patient/Dr choice.

To this day I will not reveal to my Dr that I and my family used IVM to recover from covid ( ordered from overseas pharmacy) for concerns of retaliation

[logi_cal869]

I appreciate that, but I’m looking specifically for those who suffered loss of smell and took Ivermectin.

I’ve long had a working theory, but no test subject reports. For whatever reason I can’t get my boy to take it seriously enough to try a week of Ivermectin, so the theory on the cause of loss of smell/long Covid remains untested.

[Spok]

Doctors lost their jobs and licenses for prescribing ivermectin. As usual, the government’s response is to tell more lies.

[bk1000]

BS. You had to buy it for horses if you wanted any. The only alternative was to order online from India. Doctors wouldn’t prescribe it. Pharmacists wouldn’t fill it. It was basically contraband. Don’t even THINK about hydroxichloraquin.

** want to have some fun?

do an FR search with the keyword “ivermectin” ... there’s enough interesting results with just that one word to keep you reading for days!!

“...critical but medically wrong tactic within the wait-for-the-vaccine strategy...”

And that my friends is exactly why special interest funding of politicians in cancerous to the health of the nation, not to just citizens but the very fiber of the nation.

All of our elected leaders are funded by special interests, one kind or another. And that is why Trump was a breath of fresh air. He was not beholden to anyone but people.

Simple. Follow the circle. Government buys vaccine from Pfizer Pfizer gives Democrat politicians money.

The simple answer is almost always the correct one

[cableguymn]

Why do you think they are calling for blanket amnesty for these killers?

The house Republicans have been handed a awesome chance to expose all this if they have the testicle fortitude to do so. Given their history and who they want to make their speaker I don’t think they will.

[Mouton]

I was fortunate in a way. Went to ER for an issue not related to Chinese flu. After checkout out fine, no stroke, the ER doc who happens to be my neighbor, gave me the IVT prescription saying keep this handy you may need it.

CVS would not fill it but Walgreens did.

[canuck_conservative]

I was able to find this ...

"Put simply, an emergency use authorization (EUA) is a tool the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) can use to expedite the availability of medical products, including drugs and vaccines, during a public health emergency. An EUA can only be granted when no adequate, approved, available alternatives exist, and when the known and potential benefits outweigh the potential risks. An EUA also only lasts as long as the public health emergency for which it was declared."
