Even as the search for the coronavirus vaccine continues, there is a lot of confusion and contradictory views regarding usage of drugs to fight against COVID-19. Some health officials, including specialists from Melbourne, recently suggested to the doctors in India to prescribe Ivermectin, a drug used to treat lice and other parasites, to treat coronavirus.
Dr Shashikant Manikappa, specialist cardiac anesthetist of Monash Health, Melbourne (Australia), said that medications like Hydroxychloroquine, and more recently Ivermectin, had shown some promising results against coronavirus.
But despite some promising results, the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) hasn't included Ivermectin in its treatment guidelines. The apex medical body hasn't recommended the use of the anti-parasite drug for coronavirus treatment. As per report, the research agency is reviewing the benefits of ivermectin as a potential therapy for COVID-19.
Meanwhile, ICMR has recommended use of Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) for prophylaxis of COVID-19 infection for high risk population, based on the emerging evidence on its safety and efficacy. As per the revised guidelines, this anti-parasitic drug can be used as a preventive medication for asymptomatic healthcare workers working in non-COVID-19 hospitals, frontline staff on surveillance duty in containment zones and police personnel involved in coronavirus infection related activities.
Indian companies Zydus Cadila and IPCA Laboratories are the largest makers of Hydroxychloroquine, and India supplies over 70 percent of the global demand for this drug. The Indian drug makers had increased their capacities several times to meet the demand for COVID-19 treatment globally.

I got to call my vet. We worm the horses with Ivermectin. Apple flavored. I ain’t tried it but if you’re head down grab the rope.
The ICMR (Indian CDC) still has their HCQ prophylaxis document from May up on their web site.
6 gram tubes, 1 gram per 200 lbs
The correct human treatment is 12.5 mg every day for 5 days with vitamin C and D3. I have been very impressed with it as a treatment. I have used it and it seems to work. I agree with the recent literature that remdesevir does nothing.
Aussie researchers claim it works great. Of course, topic largely censored in the USA. The scientists who support it are not PC. I still also say HCQ+ would likely work well if given early enough, upon diagnosis. All the “trials” showing it doesn’t work are either faulty in design, or administer to people who are already too sick to show a clinically meaningful improvement vs standards of care.
I’m just an armchair researcher but strive for objective analysis and sound statistics. I think ivermectin probably would work, there is ample ‘anecdotal’ evidence (just like HCQ+) to suggest efficacy. Ivermectin may ultimately be better than HCQ but they are fairly similar in function against CV-19.
Remdesivir has never shown efficacy at anything, and was never approved for anything until the EUA for Covid-19, which they should now revoke if the FDA has any intellectual consistency. But they probably won’t, they will let it go out to hospitals and at best justify “the placebo effect” and the $100’s of millions going to Gilead. No real money to be made on generic drugs and minerals and vitamins so few serious researchers can afford to investigate them without a government grant. Make a new drug that works for something like this, you will become uberwealthy. Prove that an old generic drug does the same thing, everyone standing to gain from developing something new will align against you.
You have FIVE days after first symptoms to start HCQ+Zn to get a clear CURE. Wait until day SIX, and you might be looking at ER+ICU.
This video talks about the testing and Dr Risch of Yale says HCQ is the best he has ever seen as far as documentation. Risch also talks about Fauci's murder of 17,000 back in the AID's days when his double blind placebo testing delayed a drug. The people needing it had to pay for the testing to get it approved!
VIDEO HCQ IS SAFE FOR COVID-19. WHY IT'S NOT USED IS THE KILLER QUESTION!
WHY isn't HCQ being used? That's easily answered.
1. PHARMA can fast track drugs and vaccines IF THERE IS NO EFFECTIVE TREATMENT. Normal testing would cost PHARMA $BILLIONS if they admitted HCQ was an effective treatment.
2. If HCQ+Zn works, then the RAT plan of vote by mail and economy shutdown falls apart.
THEREFORE, BY ROYAL FAUCI DECREE, HCQ is dangerous and can't be used!
Disclaimer: I was infected in July. I drove TWO hours one way to see a FRONTLINE Doctor. HCQ+Zn+antibiotic was prescribed on MY third day of symptoms
Next day, my chest congestion noticeably improved.
Two days later, my smell and taste returned.
The loss of smell was crazy. I held a can of kitten food up to my face and I could NOT smell it until it was just inches away from my nose, and even then it wasn't objectionable. I usually smell a can of kitten food across the house.
If the first video doesn't convince you, listen to another Dr describe his results: 1700 treated, a few to the hospital and no deaths. And the most important part is he says he will loose his medical license before he will stop saving lives...
Side story: As we were waiting to see the Dr., the person who infected me and myself had our blood pressure taken. Mine was 120/70, I had followed Dr Zelenko for months plus I had seen other Doctors tell similar stories-There was NO doubt in my mind that HCQ+Zn worked.
The other person's BP was 180/(?)! She had apologized to me numerous times about infecting me and was sure we were both going to die. She listened to the doctors saying they had almost 100% success with HCQ before she took it (which I played for her during our worsening symptoms), but she probably believed CNN instead.
VIDEO 1700 patients treated successfully
What is the bottom line? Almost ALL Americans are idiots, they still listen to the MSM and deep staters like Fauci tell them what to think. HCQ +Zn is almost 100% effective if given within the first five days of symptoms. Fauci and his co-conspirator's games have killed over 200,000 people.
Quit listening to the idiots, liars and morons who tell you HCQ+Zn doesn't work and that it's dangerous. It is available by on line medical doctor consultation and an online pharmacy will deliver it to your door. Take quercetin+Zn as a backup zinc ionophore. A few doses a week and some are saying that you will never get infected by the virus.
And shut down economies with all the additional deaths and hardships that has caused.
Thanks for that link!
Substitute an animal medication for a proven human med with a safe 60 year history? This is why we have “quacks” in medicine.
RE: Substitute an animal medication for a proven human med with a safe 60 year history?
Errr...
1) Ivermectin was DEVELOPED FOR HUMANS to treat diseases from Parasites to River Blindness to Scabies . Veterinary uses came later after humans have been taking it.
2) Ivermectin, like Hydroxychloroquine, has been used for over 50 years, they are cheap, FDA and TGA approved and have an outstanding safety profile.
3) Like Hydroxychloroquine, numerous scientific studies have shown its effectivity against Covid-19.
4) It has been recommended by among others, Professor Thomas Borody, an internationally regarded physician with 4 FDA approved drugs on the US and Australian markets, is famous for developing the triple therapy that cured peptic ulcers, saving more than 18,000 lives just in Australia and millions internationally.
