I’ll trust my own judgment as to who is trustworthy, thanks. It’s been on the money so far.
See there’s your problem right there.

The halfwits who say they only listen to experts will have to contort themselves on that one. No doubt they will try and attack the messengers rather than debate the point.

A cheap easy preventative and treatment.
Lads would rather let people die needlessly than be seen to go against wokeness or whatever it is that they define themselves by.
But that’s neither here nor there. The real scandal is politicians and chosen experts deliberately feigning ignorance. If there was any justice they’d do time, be thrown in the liffey etc

There’s a very simple way to think about Ivermectin from the perspective of the average GP. There was (and is) no effective treatment available for patients who were declining fast from Covid, once the virus reached a certain level of infection in the lungs it’s a losing battle. The early treatment was aggressive ventilation which killed more than it saved, when this was realized more gentle application of oxygen saved a lot of lives.
The doctor’s dilemma is do you sit idly by and watch people die or do you try some intervention. A doctor doesn’t get to do clinical trials, their job is to save lives and if that involves going off label on a drug treatment, not alone can they do it, they should do it as the alternative is death. Doctors do it all the time and have been doing it as long as medicine has been practiced.
Both Ivermectin and HCQ before it are safe drugs that have been administered to hundreds of millions of people over many decades, for parasitic infections and autoimmune diseases. Ask yourself why the venomous opposition from pharma and the media to their usage, while at the same time billions were spent on antiviral candidates over the past 18 months, not one of which has proven successful. Why would you not invest a small fraction of that in a clinical trial for a drug that has known strong antiviral properties against dozens of disease causing pathogens?
The answer to that question is blindingly obvious to anyone who can actually think rationally. Pharma have only spent money on campaigns against Ivermectin, not one pharma company has spent a dollar on a study, why is that? Because it has no profit potential. The problem here is people simply cannot think for themselves and believe everything they read in the media, or Twitter because some lad they agree with ideologically said it.
Cui bono? Who does it benefit to stop the promotion and usage of Ivermectin in favor of newer antivirals with who knows what long term side effects? Remdesivir was fast tracked to emergency use approval in May 2020, based on a few small studies. A 5 day dose cost $2,600 and it was administered to millions of people worldwide. Later studies showed it wasn’t worth a shit and didn’t save one life, but Gilead made billions so nothing to see here, move on to the next candidate. As the attached article explains Gilead sold a $ billion worth of Remdesivir to the EU after they has seen negative results from trials that were not yet public, sure why not.
In summary it’s perfectly fine to tell doctors to prescribe a new largely untested antiviral with high toxicity that doesn’t work costing $2600, but it’s not OK for a doctor to prescribe a known antiviral with zero toxicity (at normal dosage) that costs $1. It’s not that hard to understand the motivation.

It’s this sort of commentary that makes you a top top poster. I confidently predict that even @Malarkey will give you a ‘like’ here.
May’s edition of the bmj contains a review of covid prophylaxis drugs. A few months old but still …
Give us our ivermectin you cunts.

Uttar Pradesh on Ivermectin: Population 240 Million [4.9% fully vaccinated]
COVID Daily Cases: 26
COVID Daily Deaths: 3
Only 26 cases out of 240 million people with a vaccination rate below 5% because the whole population is doing ivermectin. Looks legit, get it into me.

Oul shite. Every expert wheeled out for MSM touts some flawed Egyptian study in an attempt to sound serious…whatever about the 70+ other studies plus real world data. That tramp luke o’neill was at the same carry on…suckling his teeth and cooking his head for the simple folk. Crawley is some worthless tub
