Florida woman dies after suing hospital to get ivermectin
The Associated Press ^ | November 16, 2021

PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla (AP) — A 47-year-old Florida teacher hospitalized with COVID-19 has died after her husband sued in an unsuccessful effort to force doctors to treat her with ivermectin.

Tamara Drock died Friday, 12 weeks after being admitted to Palm Beach Gardens Medical Center, Ryan Drock told the Palm Beach Post.

He sued the hospital last month in an attempt to require doctors to administer ivermectin, a drug used to treat conditions caused by parasitic worms. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has not approved the drug to treat COVID-19, saying it hasn’t proved effective in pre-clinical trials.

Palm Beach County Circuit Judge James Nutt rejected Drock’s lawsuit last month, saying allowing judges to countermand doctor’s decisions could set a dangerous precedent.

He urged the Drocks and the hospital to try to reach agreement on their own. A deal fell apart after a doctor agreed to administer ivermectin at a dosage the family’s attorney said was too low, the newspaper reported.

I sure hope the doctors, hospital and bureaucrats enjoy their hard fought victory.

This hospital and its doctors should be ashamed. They did not treat this woman. They let her die. And probably helped do her in with a dose of Remdesivir. I am thoroughly disgusted with the medical establishment. I will never trust them again.

Thanks to the PREP Act, liability protection is only given to those prescribing covered countermeasures.

Deep State doesn’t list Ivermectin as a covered countermeasure.

No liability protection, no scrip.

We have a de facto NHS.

Clap for carers!

How long are the AP and other liberal news outlets going to continue with the “Ivermectin is used to fight parasitic worms” and “It hasn’t proven effective in clinical trials?”

This blatant attempt at misinformation has led to the deaths of thousands and will lead to many more in the future.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration...saying it hasn’t proved effective in pre-clinical trials.

This is an outrageous lie by the FDA. It has proven effective in many, many trials all over the world reducing mortality by 85%.

These days, doctors only options are to be employees of these large corporations that own the hospitals. That is the effect of obumbercare. Worse then that, the CEOs of these corporations are woke graduates of corrupted institutions. They want to have a say in who lives and who dies. I myself am experiencing this today. I am not allowed to make any medical decisions myself and am punished if I don’t do what the doctor wants. For example, my doctor wants me to get the jab. But I had covid just last August, what good would it do? The doctor is not happy with my decision and is refusing to order blood test for me. I’m looking for another doctor. But here in Florida it can take 3 months or more to get an appointment with a new doctor. And I need help now.

My husband’s PCP has had 2 confrontations with my husband about the vaccine. Husband is recovering from cancer, very weakened and doesn’t want it until he knows more about it. His doctor, who was a great friend of his, got into a yelling match with him, telling him to DO HIS PART and take the shot. Husband refused and doesn’t consider him to be a friend anymore and is looking for another doctor.

He and I are still in shock over this.

I am sort of confused by your comment. Remdesivir is an antiviral for treating COVID 19. Did they give it to her? If so why would this not be treatment and how would that do her in?

Perhaps the most telling portion of the WHO article was the last sentence, “WHO will also support the Uttar Pradesh government on the compilation of the final reports.”
https://www.who.int/india/news/feature-stories/detail/uttar-pradesh-going-the-last-mile-to-stop-covid-19
None have yet been published.
Just five short weeks later, on June 14, 2021, new cases had dropped a staggering 97.1 percent, and the Uttar Pradesh program was hailed as a resounding success. According to ZeeNews of India, “The strategy of trace, test & treat yields results.”
“The Yogi-led state has also been registering a steep decline in the number of Active COVID Cases as the figure has dropped from a high of 310,783 in April to 8,986 now, a remarkable reduction by 97.10 percent.”

By July 2, 2021, three weeks later, cases were down a full 99 percent.

On August 6, 2021, India’s Ivermectin media blackout ended with MSN reporting. Western media, including MSN, finally acknowledged what was contained in those Uttar Pradesh medicine kits. Among the medicines were Doxycycline and Ivermectin.
