HHS Amends PREP Act Liability Waiver To Cover Only NIH Approved Treatments for COVID-19
Conservative Treehouse ^ | August 31, 2021 | Sundance

There have been some recent reports about hospitals, doctors and health officials now refusing to treat U.S. patients with vitamin D, ivermectin, hydroxychloroquine and another effective therapeutics. A recent notation about HHS changing liability waivers under the PREP Act, might provide some insight.

“Enacted in December 2005, the PREP Act authorizes the Secretary of HHS (Secretary) to issue a declaration (called a PREP Act declaration) that provides immunity from tort liability (except for willful misconduct) for claims of loss caused, arising out of, relating to, or resulting from administration or use of countermeasures to diseases, threats and conditions determined by the Secretary to constitute a present, or credible risk of a future public health emergency to entities and individuals involved in the development, manufacture, testing, distribution, administration, and use of such countermeasures.” (link)

A PREP Act declaration is specifically for the purpose of providing immunity from tort liability, and is different from, and not dependent on, other emergency declarations.

A COVID watchdog group recently noted: “It appears that the Prep Act had been amended such that private hospitals and entities were covered in their actions taken with Covid-19 patients and relieved of all liability as long as they were prescribing ‘Covered Countermeasures’. ie. NIH approved medications. This may be why hospitals are refusing to use effective COVID treatments like vitamin D, ivermectin, hydroxychloroquine, etc” (link)....

Drugs that have been around for decades and been prescribed billions of times = too dangerous.

Experimental immune therapy “vaccines” with no long term studies, and extremely expensive treatments = The truth, the light, and the way.

Hey doc, give me a prescription for ivermectin and I will give you a waiver.

Better yet, find a pharmacist in India that takes paypal.

Hospitals are no longer places you go to get well. They are back to being places you go to die.

Doctors in Florida hospitals are obviously doing a very fine job.

The doctors are using Regeneron.

There are criteria for being able to get regeneron, and it varies from one location/state to another.
