How Smart Are The Vaxxed?
American Thinker ^ | 21 Sep, 2021 | Steve Apfel

Posted on 09/21/2021 3:47:07 AM PDT by MtnClimber

If intelligence is measured by paying attention to data, their IQ points are probably lower than they think they are.

“You are not a horse. You are not a cow. Seriously, y'all. Stop it.” That’s the FDA demeaning the 28% of adults holding out, who definitely don’t want to get vaxxed. They trust a familiar drug over the jab. By the stubbornness of that number, the anti-vaxxers won’t be changing their minds anytime soon.

If there’s one thing the FDA hates more than a stubborn resistor, it’s a faithful drug taker. Beware those who seek salvation in Ivermectin. The words poison, lethal, seizures, and hospitalization, sprinkle the FDA’s alert. A poison pill, we’re led to think.

“Ivermectin, a deworming medicine, is the latest quack cure for covid-19.” This was the headline to a story in the staid Economist. We read that crazies are emptying the shelves of veterinary stores, and taking the cure in doses meant for quadrupeds.

In such a manner do vaxxers poke fun at dissenters.

But could it be possible the dissenters know a thing or two their tormentors don’t know? What if—to speculate--there’s more idiocy on the orthodox divide?

Vaxxers, for a start, may not know that the scientists who discovered Ivermectin won the Nobel Prize for Medicine in 1975. It’s on the World Health Organization’s List of Essential Medicines, in case they aren’t aware of it. And could it be that the vaxxed are too busy mocking Neanderthals for taking animal cures to read up that Ivermectin shares the podium with penicillin and aspirin for having the “greatest beneficial impact on the health and well-being of humanity.” And you can nudge the know-it-alls by telling them that the drug is FDA approved—for humans as well as horses.

The CDC recommends Ivermectin and HCQ for people in parasite infested third world countries. They are not horses and these Einstein’s know it.

It is kind of ironic when people are pretending to be super-smart so they can talk down to others but employ a technique that actually makes them look like idiots.

Some of them get very stupid on this. Mark Simone was on the radio a couple days ago and his whole argument against covid-fascism was just get vaccinated, just get vaccinated, just get vaccinate. Just kept repeating those words over and over.

India’s Uttar Pradesh State Now COVID-Free, Recovery Rate Up 98.6% Because Of Ivermectin
BY OLIVIA CAVALLARO
SEP 17, 2021 04:16 AM EDT

India’s Uttar Pradesh State has declared victory against COVID after it reported a recovery rate of 98.6%. The government announced a steady improvement of the COVID situation in the area with about 67 districts reporting no new cases of the viral infection in the last 24 hours.

According to Hindustan Times, India’s Uttar Pradesh State has a total of 199 active cases, with a positivity rate going as low as 0.01%. In the last 24 hours, the state reported only 11 new COVID cases and no deaths. India Today credits the success to the stringent “trace, test and treat” measure, vaccination and partial curfews that helped bring down COVID case numbers in the recent weeks.

But the Gateway Pundit says that Ivermectin played a significant role in the recovery of the state from COVID. According to its report, “Uttar Pradesh is the leading state in India to use Ivermectin as early and preventatively in all family contacts.” Uttar Pradesh is also one of five states in India with the lowest cases of COVID despite having a low vaccination rate of just 5.8% of its population. The state currently has 15,236,150 fully vaccinated individuals.

“Uttar Pradesh was the first state in the country to introduce large-scale prophylactic and therapeutic use of Ivermectin,” Surveillance Officer Vikssendu Agrawal said, as reported by the Indian Express. Dr. Anshul Pareek led a team in May to June 2020 to administer Ivermectin to patients on an experimental basis. Agrawal said, “It was observed that none of them developed Covid-19 despite being in daily contact with patients who had tested positive for the virus.”

Agrawal added that Ivermectin has helped the state maintain low positivity rates despite its high population density. He added, “Once the second wave subsides, we would conduct our own study as there has been an emerging body of evidence to substantiate our timely use of Ivermectin from the first wave itself.”

India continues to see a benefit from Ivermectin, which the mainstream media continues to vilify. However, Juan Chamie, the Cambridge-based data analyst who has provided graphical insight and published on COVID, told The Desert Review that “Despite a widespread attempt by the media and WHO to convince the world that India has dropped Ivermectin by citing the [Directorate General of Health Services] DGHS, the [Indian Council of Medical Research] ICMR and [All India Institute Of Medical Science] AIIMS have not changed their position, and Ivermectin remains in the India National Protocol.”

Following the deadly wave of COVID in April and May in India, cases have seen a major decline all over the country. However, the western state of Maharashtra and the southern state of Kerala have seen yet another spike, DW reported. On Wednesday, Maharashtra reported over 3,700 new cases and over 50 deaths, while Kerala recorded over 4.4 million cases with more than 23,000 deaths.

Health experts are now warning of a potential third wave in October especially as the festival season is fast approaching. Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced that efforts were being undertaken to ensure hospital bed capacity and oxygen availability in the event of another deadly wave.

Yesdaerday my doctor said that masks work. I said this thing that I just pulled out of my pocketbook and touched a hundred times works? She said well the N95 works better but it is really unconfortable to wear and you can’t wear it for lomg. She also said the vaccine works. Time for a new doctor.

My mother got covid at 83. Went to hospital She was sent home to recoup.
They gave her the remdesivir ( if only I knew then what I know now).

She relapsed and went back to hospital. The second she walked thru door they no longer treated her with medication and treated her like hospice. She died within 10 days.
Then 4 days later my brother had a heart attack. Unexpected. No. Not valued.
My life is crushed.

In the meantime my sister is put on a ventilator and was on deaths door. WE DEMANDED THEY GIVE HER INVERMECTIN. It took several meeting for them to agree.

I just received a call this morning. She is now slightly alert and made her first phone call in 5 weeks. Still real bad but improvements for the first time.

Not at all smart. Suicidal, really, considering their immune system is now permanently compromised.

Masks work, in a very specific manner. They are not a fail proof solution.

I do not advocate wearing masks all of the time. The current promoted use is based on ignorance.

Here is the science.

Pseudo-smart. Some are unfortunate victims of dangerous, experimental gene-therapy agents (GTA).

They will soon (if not already) be exhibiting diseases thanks to their COVID-19 vaccine compromised immune systems. Dr Ryan Cole: 20x increase in cancer reports since vax

Those poinsoned with the so-called vaccines can still use Ivermectin to counter ill-effects of breakthrough infections.

Throw down 1 study and I can throw 7 right back.

Jacobs, J. L. et al. (2009) “Use of surgical face masks to reduce the incidence of the common cold among health care workers in Japan: A randomized controlled trial,” American Journal of Infection Control, Volume 37, Issue 5, 417 – 419. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19216002

N95-masked health-care workers (HCW) were significantly more likely to experience headaches. Face mask use in HCW was not demonstrated to provide benefit in terms of cold symptoms or getting colds.

Cowling, B. et al. (2010) “Face masks to prevent transmission of influenza virus: A systematic review,” Epidemiology and Infection, 138(4), 449-456. https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/epidemiology-and-infection/article/face-masks-to-prevent-transmission-of-influenza-virus-a-systematic-review/64D368496EBDE0AFCC6639CCC9D8BC05

None of the studies reviewed showed a benefit from wearing a mask, in either HCW or community members in households (H). See summary Tables 1 and 2 therein.

bin-Reza et al. (2012) “The use of masks and respirators to prevent transmission of influenza: a systematic review of the scientific evidence,” Influenza and Other Respiratory Viruses 6(4), 257–267. https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/j.1750-2659.2011.00307.x

“There were 17 eligible studies. … None of the studies established a conclusive relationship between mask/respirator use and protection against influenza infection.”

Smith, J.D. et al. (2016) “Effectiveness of N95 respirators versus surgical masks in protecting health care workers from acute respiratory infection: a systematic review and meta-analysis,” CMAJ Mar 2016 https://www.cmaj.ca/content/188/8/567

“We identified six clinical studies … . In the meta-analysis of the clinical studies, we found no significant difference between N95 respirators and surgical masks in associated risk of (a) laboratory-confirmed respiratory infection, (b) influenza-like illness, or (c) reported work-place absenteeism.”

Offeddu, V. et al. (2017) “Effectiveness of Masks and Respirators Against Respiratory Infections in Healthcare Workers: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis,” Clinical Infectious Diseases, Volume 65, Issue 11, 1 December 2017, Pages 1934–1942, https://academic.oup.com/cid/article/65/11/1934/4068747

“Self-reported assessment of clinical outcomes was prone to bias. Evidence of a protective effect of masks or respirators against verified respiratory infection (VRI) was not statistically significant”; as per Fig. 2c therein:

Radonovich, L.J. et al. (2019) “N95 Respirators vs Medical Masks for Preventing Influenza Among Health Care Personnel: A Randomized Clinical Trial,” JAMA. 2019; 322(9): 824–833. https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/fullarticle/2749214

“Among 2862 randomized participants, 2371 completed the study and accounted for 5180 HCW-seasons. ... Among outpatient health care personnel, N95 respirators vs medical masks as worn by participants in this trial resulted in no significant difference in the incidence of laboratory-confirmed influenza.”

Long, Y. et al. (2020) “Effectiveness of N95 respirators versus surgical masks against influenza: A systematic review and meta-analysis,” J Evid Based Med. 2020; 1- 9. https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/jebm.12381

“A total of six RCTs involving 9,171 participants were included. There were no statistically significant differences in preventing laboratory-confirmed influenza, laboratory-confirmed respiratory viral infections, laboratory-confirmed respiratory infection, and influenza-like illness using N95 respirators and surgical masks. Meta-analysis indicated a protective effect of N95 respirators against laboratory-confirmed bacterial colonization (RR = 0.58, 95% CI 0.43-0.78). The use of N95 respirators compared with surgical masks is not associated with a lower risk of laboratory-confirmed influenza.”

I asked the doctor why no one was getting the flu and she said because everyone is wearing masks. I was in such shock I did not even laugh in her masked and plexiglassed face.

She said they closed an entire floor of the hospital. I said because the doctors and nurses refused the vax? She looked at me like I had 2 heads and she said no they are leaving because of burn out.

Repetition of a canned phrase is a sign of mental programming.
