Peer reviewed study finds that ivermectin is effective as prophylaxis for Covid-19 and as a therapeutic remedy
American Thinker ^ | 6 May, 2021 | Thomas Lifson

The article concludes: "ivermectin should be globally and systematically deployed in the prevention and treatment of COVID-19." Unlike the vaccines, it is not an experimental drug and is known to be safe for all but a few with other conditions.

I expect the corporate media will ignore as much as possible the findings of a peer-reviewed study just published in the American Journal of Therapeutics that concludes the readily-available, inexpensive (off-patent) drug ivermectin is effective in treating existing cases of Covid-19 and in preventing coming down with the illness. Unlike the experimental vaccines that we are being ceaselessly urged to take, ivermectin has been around for many years and is safe for all but a few people. From the article:

Numerous studies report low rates of adverse events, with the majority mild, transient, and largely attributed to the body's inflammatory response to the death of the parasites and include itching, rash, swollen lymph nodes, joint paints, fever, and headache.75 In a study that combined results from trials including more than 50,000 patients, serious events occurred in less than 1% and largely associated with administration in Loa loa.76

Order it from Amazon, for your horses.

The Dosage/weight ratio holds for all types of horses.

Good post, thank you. Me and approx 20 socially active family members have been on HCQ+zinc+supplements for over a year. Not even a cold reported. They can’t make money off HCQ or Ivermectin, hence the press to get vaccinated. Profits have exceeded $100M.

And yet you still won’t admit that the rDNA, adenovirus vector approach, of the JnJ ‘vaccine’ is a gene therapy approach.

Why?

Its too bad that India doesn't have hydroxychloroquine or ivermectin.

Oh wait - there are several Indian companies that make both of those drugs.

You need to face facts.

Why won’t you admit that the JnJ approach is gene therapy?

One might be left to surmise that it is because it doesn’t fit the pro vaccine agenda that you constantly push.

I simply cannot have a detailed conversation with someone who clearly lacks understanding of the details. It is obvious you are playing the usual gotcha technique of superficial understanding to get a bullet point.

Sorry I can see your technique. Your knowledge is what is suspect.

Pleasant morning to you.

As I have said nothing is new with this pandemic except for the politicization.

And the jabs themselves. Not even a year old.

Here's the trial schedule for the Pfizer jab, latter part of Phase 1 and all of Phase 2 & 3, evidently being run concurrently.

Four years total and it was just started last year. https://media.tghn.org/medialibrary/2020/11/C4591001_Clinical_Protocol_Nov2020_Pfizer_BioNTech.pdf

We are the trial participants. Kinda brings new meaning to the phrase; "We're all in this together"

Says the DR claiming to be an expert, in virology but doesn’t know what T2 is, and refuses to correctly describe what an adenovirus vector approach is.

I see through your propaganda.

Ivermectin, another antiparasitic like hydroxychloroquine proving effective against the COVID-19 virus.

Folks, I see your back and forth regarding the merits and demerits of vaccination vs. Ivermectin.

This debate brings up a question -— why does it have to be an EITHER/OR thing? i.e., if you use Ivermectin, don’t take the vaccine or vice versa?

Why can’t be a BOTH/AND thing? Let a person be allowed to take the vaccine *AND* continue to use Ivermectin.

This is like arguing, you can’t use rocks to throw at the enemy, better use a gun instead. Why can’t we use both if we have them?

We are fighting a common enemy and any weapons we have against it that has evidence of usefulness can be used.

'Ivermectin has a very similar mechanism of action that Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) has. It binds with the ACE-2 receptors on cells, effectively shutting the entrance door to cells."
I thought hydroxxychloroquine was a zinc ionophore transporting zinc into the cells. You seem knowledgeable. Please elucidate.

People can use the vaccine and or ivermectin as they wish. It’s an individual decision. The politics and hysteria need to stop. As I am working on a covid ward today and sending people to ICU I am very grateful to have been vaccinated and I bet the people doing worse and going to ICU wish they had been. Those that wish to hurl invective at me for being vaccinated and being grateful for it can stuff it until they come work a couple days on a covid ward

It’s interesting to read that you think ivermectin is not an effective treatment. I recall posts from you saying that ivermectin was effective and you being outraged when your hospital banned you from using it.

Ha! You busted the zealot/FRocter/FRVP TRUE zealot. (Always starts off with the name calling, they do.)

Amazing how quickly they’re able to jump onto FR Ivermectin/HCQ/alternatives to the unproven/experimental shots threads.....while “saving saves”, of course 😉

Credit to Dr. “Zev” Zelenko in New York who is dying of cancer. May God comfort he and his family. He should be awarded a Nobel Prize for Medicine.


Indeed.

Agree.
