HARRISBURG, Pa. - As more Pennsylvanians are diagnosed with COVID-19, families of those infected are ready to give alternative treatments a try to save dying loved ones. But the path to experiment controversial medicines is not an easy one. On Monday, Rep. Dawn Keefer, who serves York and Cumberland Counties spoke in front of the state health committee on the benefits of House Bill 1741. The bill, written by Rep. Keefer, would give doctors the approval to prescribe off-label drugs like Ivermectin and Hydroxychloroquine to treat COVID-19 patients. "We need to give everyone more resources and effort into treatment, preventative...

Last week, the World Tribune published an article revealing information that indicates the WHO likely knew ivermectin was effective for months, but blocked its use, all for Big Pharma. Dr. Andrew Hill, a senior visiting research fellow in pharmacology at Liverpool University, adviser to the Gates Foundation, and researcher for the WHO, was tasked with conducting an ivermectin trial for the WHO. Based on his preliminary findings, Hill testified enthusiastically about the use of ivermectin before the NIH COVID-19 Treatment Guidelines Panel on Jan. 6, 2021. But then he suddenly changed course and published a study dinging the drug’s efficacy...

Don’t live in fear, don’t live in isolation, [and] don’t take the poison death shot,' Dr. Zelenko said. Dr. Vladamir Ze’ev Zelenko, who is credited with pioneering the early treatment protocol for COVID-19 involving hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) and zinc sulfate, recently became very candid with regards to the entire COVID-19 enterprise, the perilous situation the people of the world are facing, and his call for the “God-conscious” to resist rapidly advancing government and media tyranny. Candor is not a quality that Zelenko has lacked over the last 21 months since he wrote an open letter to President Donald Trump announcing his...

Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI) on Sunday blasted Dr. Fauci for his failed Covid response and for sabotaging early treatment using cheap, available, generic drugs. “I ask a simple question, did Dr. Fauci’s response to COVID-19 work? 788,000 lives lost, many because he ignored and sabotaged early treatment using cheap, available, generic drugs in favor of a vaccine that is not as safe or effective as we all hoped it would be. The Gateway Pundit has reported extensively this past year on the effects of hydroxychloroquine in treating the COVID-19 virus.There have now been 67 Ivermectin COVID-19 controlled studies that show...

100% forced vax based on 0% reliable data We’re being hounded into forced vaccination on the basis of dodgy data, expensively ineffective mRNA drugs, obvious corruption, fake news about preferable management drugs and demographic jab extensions that fail every known and measured cost/benefit analysis. As voluntary “vaccination” stutters, it’s game on for Omicron the Omnipotent as the Trojan Totalitarian Horse gallops over the drawbridge. Austria has gone, Greece is going, the EU is ready and Macron has called a Conseil Constitutionelle in anticipation. The Slog asks what the Resistance can do now. Less than a fortnight into the opening performance...

[H/T Jane Long]Funny story.A month ago The New Yorker wrote a long piece on Dr. Patrick Soon-Shiong, who owns the Los Angeles Times and is the richest man in Los Angeles.Dr. Soon-Shiong made his billions thanks to a chemotherapy drug called Abraxane, which is a repatented and dressed-up version of a nasty and somewhat effective drug called paclitaxel. Abraxane came out in 2005 and was among the first cancer drugs to cost a few thousand dollars a month - a price that seems almost quaint now, when some cost 10 times that much. (Because pharmaceutical companies are all about helping...

Weird that two are “snake oil” and the expensive one will get EUA {Emergency Use Authorization by the FDA}

I was reading through a monthly summary of prescription drug benefits of a family member. And I saw this notation in section 4 regarding updates to the plan’s drug list. It says that beginning November 1, 2021 “prior authorization“ will be required for ivermectin. And that the insured or their doctor will need to get approval from the plan before they will agree to cover the drug for that insured individual. Now, I am not sure how difficult they will make it to get the preapproval, but this certainly smacks of more corporate practice of medicine, And more layers of...

Marshall: So more COVID vaccines have now been distributed in such a short period of time, to such a generalized population, than any time in our history. And yet there's still substantial concern and a substantial amount of information that people are questioning. And perhaps for those who are reluctant to get the vaccine, concern about safety. So the FDA and CDC have a reporting system where some of these events are reported either by themselves or by their doctors. So, what are we seeing from that reporting system? Marks: Well, I think what we're seeing is robust reporting of...

Quercetin has been in the news lately, particularly as one of many potential therapeutics that might have some benefit in the prevention or treatment of COVID infection. Is there anything to this? Big media and the medical establishment are quick to pounce on any “unapproved” potential therapeutics that haven’t gone through large prospective randomized clinical trials and don’t have the seal of FDA approval. Even FDA approval is not enough if the medications are being used off-label as in the case of hydroxychloroquine or ivermectin. Decades ago, both were deemed safe and effective by the FDA and approved for human...

As a former Nebraska attorney general, I have generally declined to comment on legal opinions issued by my successors. However, the recent opinion concerning ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine as off-label medicines for the treatment of COVID-19 is extraordinary. Moreover, it addresses an issue that potentially affects every Nebraskan who becomes infected with COVID-19, so that it deserves to be highlighted. The issue, as stated by the current attorney general, is "whether it would be deemed unlawful or otherwise subject to discipline ... for an appropriately licensed health care provider, once informed patient consent has been appropriately obtained, to prescribe ivermectin [or]...

Few subjects have been more controversial than ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine — two long-established, inexpensive medications widely and successfully used in many parts of the world for the prevention and treatment of COVID. By contrast, the use of both medications against COVID has been largely suppressed in the U.S, where doctors have been threatened and punished for prescribing them. On Oct. 15, Nebraska Attorney General (AG) Doug Peterson issued a legal opinion that Nebraska healthcare providers can legally prescribe off-label medications like ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine for the treatment of COVID, so long as they obtain informed consent from the patient. However,...

What the AG's formal opinion amounts to is a full and complete takedown of the conspiracy to suppress cheap and effective early Covid-19 treatments. Legal opinions usually aren't terribly fun to read, but if you've been an ivermectin and/or hydroxychloroquine advocate for use against Wuhan Plague, this one definitely will bring you much joy. It's a rather lengthy and full spectrum opinion issued by Doug Peterson, Nebraska's Attorney General, in response to a query from the state's Department of Health and Human Services as to whether physicians can be persecuted and tormented for prescribing ivermectin or hydroxychloroquine to patients sick...

The Office of the Attorney General in Nebraska issued an opinion Friday in response to the request of the Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services that states there’s no “clear and convincing evidence that a physician who first obtains informed consent and then utilizes Ivermectin or hydroxychloroquine for COVID-19 violates the UCA (Nebraska’s Uniform Credential Act).” Nebraska Attorney General Doug Peterson together with his Solicitor General and Assistant Attorney General issued their opinion in response to a request by Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services CEO, Dannette Smith. She wanted the AG’s office to examine carefully whether doctors...

According to a thread on his Twitter account Saturday, West is experiencing "a low grade fever and light body aches." He has canceled in-person events out of concern for public safety "until receiving an all-clear indication." In addition to Ivermectin, which has been widely dismissed by health experts as a COVID-19 treatment, West is also taking hydroxychloroquine. Although his wife, Angela West, has been vaccinated against the virus, he has not, according to the tweets. "Dr. Angela West received the vaccine. LTC West did not. LTC West has publicly stated he supports individual choice and this is reflected in his...

Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) spoke to Republican supporters on Saturday in his home state, but they turned against him when he repeated the talking points of vaccine tyrants. Thousands have lost their jobs and 16,000 have died soon after receiving the Covid vaccine, according to the official government VAERS database. Sen. Graham, who supported Anthony Fauci and the CDC as they undermined Trump throughout 2020, suggested that everyone should think about getting vaccinated. Loud cries of “no” rained down upon him in response. Graham retorted, “I didn’t tell you to get it, you ought to think about it.” He was...

Posts from small businesses selling calamansi juice concentrate are claiming again that similar acidic products like lemon and honey can be used to cure the coronavirus. Like most other diet myths claimed to effectively treat the coronavirus, this is misleading. What they're saying: This one post sourced from a Viber group of community sellers labels a calamansi juice concentrate product as being "Anti-COVID Delta Variant."

Big Pharma is celebrating. Merck has released "phenomenal" test results for its experimental pill for treating COVID. The drug is said to greatly reduce the risk of hospitalization and death from the Wuhan virus. In this regard, Merck has beaten Pfizer, which is also deep in developing a medicine to treat COVID. And to be perfectly clear, both Merck and Pfizer drugs are not intended to prevent COVID. They treat it. And since the Merck drug is said to be significantly different from Pfizer's, it means, according to many experts, there is a strong likelihood of creating a cocktail of...

New Delhi [India], September 24 (ANI): Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR)-COVID-19 National Task Force Joint Monitoring Group dropped the usage of Ivermectin and Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) drugs from revised clinical guidelines for the management of adult COVID-19 patients. However, the new guidelines mention the use of Remdesivir and Tocilizumab in specific circumstances. Among the key guidelines which are routinely stressed include--wearing masks, physical distancing and hand hygiene. Suggesting a moderate use of other drugs like Remedesivir, the guideline advises the former to be used only in select moderate or severe Covid-19 patients on supplemental oxygen within 10 days of onset...
