Federal health agencies haven’t recognized ivermectin as an effective treatment for COVID-19 patients. According to Doctor Leland Stillman, the reason is more political than scientific, because otherwise there would be no basis for lockdowns or vaccine mandates. “If ivermectin were recognized by the public health and academic establishment as the drug that it is, that treats acute viral illnesses, one of which is COVID-19, the entire justification for lockdowns, mandates, let alone vaccine research and development would evaporate overnight,” Stillman told The Epoch Times in a recent interview. According to Section 564 of the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (pdf),...

A letter to Rep. James Comer, R-Ky., from the NIH’s principal deputy director, Lawrence A. Tabak, clearly says otherwise. About $600,000 in NIH funding had been funneled to Wuhan through a New York-based nonprofit, EcoHealth Alliance, run by Dr. Peter Daszak, one of the most vocal opponents of the...
