Despite all the efforts to contain it, it was useless. And germs aren't like - killer bees - or zebra mussels. They spread easily with just a few. It just takes a tiny bit to get in, and it's everywhere. All of the extra effort to protect yourself is useless once it's INSIDE the compound.



Arrogance at it's finest, thinking a disease can be controlled

Lawyer for dying COVID patient who recovered after court-ordered Ivermectin urges new thinking



Erickson represented 71-year-old Sun Ng of Naperville, Ill., who was on a ventilator for weeks and dying with COVID-19 when his lawyer won a court order Nov. 8 to force the hospital to treat him with ivermectin, an anti-parasitic and anti-inflammatory drug long used widely in the United States to treat disease like Lupus.

Within days. Ng recovered and is now back home walking and enjoying life, Erickson said.

"After one day, he was able to do a breathing test he couldn't do for 22 days," she said in an interview on the John Solomon Reports podcast. "After three days, he was off the vent for two hours. And then by the fifth day, he was off it entirely. So the hospital tried to file for, you know, a physician report, after he was off the vent, saying that ivermectin is not the reason he's better. But clearly it is."

There are numerous studies — Erickson said she located 66 studies globally — that show ivermectin is effective in fighting and warding off the virus, and it is used in places like India and Bangladesh but not in the United States. Even the National Institutes of Health's Web site recently showcased one such study conducted by foreign researchers.

"I think the fact that it is so cheap, you know, and not money-making, could be the reason that we don't use, we don't want to back it," Erickson said.
"We don't want the studies here in the United States."

Virginia Hospital Found In Contempt Of Court, Subject To $10k Per Day Fines After Denying Patient Ivermectin


On Monday, December 13, Virginia’s 20th Judicial Court found Fauquier Health in contempt of court after refusing to comply with previous orders and ruled that by 9:00 p.m. Eastern time tonight, Kathy Davies must be given the dose of Ivermectin as prescribed by a doctor retained by the Davies family. Additionally — if the hospital did not comply — the state had the right to fine the hospital $10,000 per day. That order would have been applied retroactively from December 9 onwards. The court also ordered that the Davies family be given police escort if necessary to administer the drug to their mother.

But, the court also said that the hospital had an opportunity to purge the contempt charge by complying with the order. The hospital is reportedly now opting to comply with that order after a week of arguing why they could not allow the drug to be given to Kathy Davies as the family requested.

The story offers hope for legal respite for many families who have found themselves in similar situations while trying to battle a medical establishment arguably opposed to any treatment not supported by the FDA to fight COVID-19.

For the life of me I cannot understand this foolishness that keeps Hospitals and Doctors from prescribing and using Ivermectin and HCQ.

What harm can it possibly do. ? It certainly does not harm the individual and it may help.
Even if it were no more than a relief in the mind that it is helping, that alone is help.
And yet some places are fighting it.
WHY?

I cannot help but believe it is faucci and others being paid off by Big Pharma, because it doesn't cost an arm and a leg.

YouTube Censors Bombshell Joe Rogan Interview With Cardiologist Peter McCullough



In a move that will come as a shock to absolutely no one, YouTube is censoring clips of Joe Rogan’s interview with cardiologist Peter McCullough wherein the doctor laid out how early treatment of COVID is being actively suppressed by governments and big-pharma in favour of a blind pursuit to vaccinate everyone.

Texas-based McCullough urged that treatments including ivermectin and monoclonal antibodies are being sidelined in order to “create acceptance for, and then promote, mass vaccination.”

During the three hour long exchange, McCullough also spoke at length about vaccine side effects, including myocarditis in young people.
McCullough tweeted out a link to a YouTube video of the interview, which has since been pulled down.

Alright, we'll see how long this lasts up, great chat with @JoeRogan on health & C19 #PeterMcCulloughMD https://t.co/cpoQI4Alan

Studies Proving Generic Drugs Can Fight COVID Are Being Suppressed



Repurposed Generic Medicines That Help Fight COVID

Just look at the evidence on fluvoxamine, a widely used generic antidepressant. A randomized controlled trial (RCT) published in November 2020 showed that the drug led to far less clinical deterioration in treated patients. Another, larger, double-blind RCT, published in The Lancet in October of this year, found fluvoxamine reduced COVID-19 mortality rates by up to 91 percent and hospitalizations by two-thirds. This is an FDA-approved drug. Dosed correctly and for such short periods, it is safe. And it costs about a dollar a pill.

These findings have since been further reinforced by another study published by the Journal of the American Medical Association in November, which showed a strong “class effect” of benefits from anti-depressants very similar to fluvoxamine against COVID-19. Yet, despite the large double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, neither the NIH nor the Infectious Diseases Society of America (IDSA) has arrived at a recommendation for routine use of these drugs to treat COVID-19.

The NIH to date has ignored the study. Its last update on fluvoxamine dates back to April, more than seven months ago. More disturbing is the fact that the IDSA recently reviewed this high-quality trial, yet still held fast to its recommendation of “do not use outside of a clinical trial.” Why do repurposed drugs require numerous trials prior to an agency recommendation, while high-profit, novel, patented drugs get routinely approved after only a single trial?

A recent and most brazen example is Merck’s expensive new anti-viral COVID-19 drug, molnupiravir. The FDA rapidly approved it based on a single study of modest benefits in mildly ill outpatients, and the Biden administration swiftly agreed to pay $700 per course of treatment. That was all despite the fact the medicine costs about $20 per course to manufacture, according to a World Health Organization consultant, and may prove less effective or even harmful in practice.

With our national debt registering at $2.77 trillion and inflation rampant, building the capacity in our federal government to study cheap, generic medicines would be a smart economic move. But there appears to be no appetite for fiscal prudence or scientific inquiry beyond the expensive, newly minted solutions churned out by our nation’s pharmaceutical industry.

Federal Involvement in Health Care Drives Treatment Choices


This isn’t a story about Ivermectin; it’s about what COVID-19 exposed in America’s health care system. The federal government, pharmaceutical, and insurance companies hold the reins on what care hospital administrators can offer. They never looked at your chart, but have a say in your treatment, and doctors who stray from administrative protocol can kiss their careers goodbye.

Here is a look at the many forces driving health care decisions outside the doctor-patient relationship.

Sick People Are Profitable

Indiana-based Dr. Dan Stock is a family medicine physician connected to America’s Frontline Doctors, a medical freedom organization promoting treatments such as Ivermectin for COVID-19. He says finances guide much of today’s health care landscape.

“Almost no one pays for direct care anymore,” Stock told The Epoch Times. “You pay for your care as you give your money to the federal government through taxes, or to an insurance company through premiums.”

The insurance company or the government buys the service for you as a third party. That’s a problem, Stock says, because “The federal government never has paid its bills. Every doctor and every hospital lose money on every Medicare and Medicaid patient who comes in the door.” And to make up the loss, he says, the cost of health care is inflated for those with private insurance.
A 2017 fact sheet produced by the American Hospital Association said the annual shortfall borne by hospitals is $57.8 billion, and privately insured patients and others make up the difference.

Nonprofit hospitals are federally required to accept Medicare, Medicaid, retired military insurance, Indian Health Services, and all federal insurance programs.

This cost-shifting caused inflation of medical prices and that sparked increases in private health insurance premiums.

“Employers started screaming about it, people started dropping their private insurance because it just wasn’t worth the money anymore, so that’s why the Affordable Care Act got passed,” Stock said. “The idea was, look, market forces won’t make you join in and buy through the third-party payment scheme to keep Medicare and Medicaid afloat. Hospitals are screaming ‘we’re going to go bankrupt.’ So the Affordable Care Act comes out, which says that everybody in the country has to buy insurance, and if you’re an employer, you have to buy it for your employee. You’re not allowed to say no. If you do, we give you a great big tax.”
That kept Medicare and Medicaid funded, Stock says.

Healthcare workers say some COVID-19 patients and their families are demanding unapproved therapies


"Folks act as if they can come into the hospital and request any certain therapy they want or conversely decline any therapy that they want with the idea being that somehow they can pick and choose and direct their therapy and it doesn't work," Dr. Jack Lyons, a physician at St. Cloud Hospital in St. Cloud, Minnesota, told CNN.

Nikki Motta, a travel nurse who has spent the pandemic working in hospitals along the East Coast, told Insider that she's had patients and their families come in and request medications like ivermectin that have not been approved by the Food and Drug Administration for COVID-19 treatment.

"I think many times patients who are admitted to the hospital that have not chosen to become vaccinated decide that the information that's out there that they've received regarding vaccination and treatment plans can be utilized in the same space as a research-based facility and unfortunately, a lot of times that's not the case," Motta said.




So What ... Niki Motta is WRONG, patients HAVE A RIGHT TO REQUEST THE TREATMENT OF THEIR CHOICE


The is NO Regulation Against proscribing medications for off label uses, it's just NOT Recommended ...... Hospital Administrators uses it isn't approve as an excuse to do nothing, the decision is political one in this day and age, Objections by Gov Bureaucrats hamper these treatments ... there have been numerous lawsuits where patients had to SUE to get the treatment they wanted .. in those case Ivermectian



Use of Ivermectin Is Associated With Lower Mortality in Hospitalized Patients With Coronavirus Disease 2019: The Ivermectin in COVID Nineteen Study



How CDC, FDA, & Media Wove A Web Of Ivermectin Lies That Outlives The Truth

In a ballyhooed press conference, New Mexico Human Services Secretary Dr. David Scrase, the state’s top health chief, announced New Mexico’s first ivermectin “overdose,” soon adding a second fatality allegedly from “ivermectin toxicity.”

Now, Scrase has acknowledged that his repeated, what he called “offhand,” assertions were groundless. Two deaths were not caused by ivermectin, a long-used generic drug that was emerging as a covid treatment. Instead, he said that the pair died because they “actually just delayed their care with covid.”

That is a big difference.


Scrase backpedaled on December 1 in a little-noticed online press briefing and only after we pressed his agency to provide evidence for its claims of so-called “ivermectin deaths.” Officials had repeatedly said they were awaiting a toxicology report on the cattleman’s death. Yet we learned that the report was never even ordered or done, and, moreover, the man’s death was ruled by the state’s coroner as being from “natural” causes.

Not a single media outlet reported Scrase’s admission, even as dozens, including the The Hill and TheNew York Times, had eagerly covered his original assertions about ivermectin, an anti-parasitic drug awarded the Nobel Prize in Medicine in 2015.
“I don’t want more people to die,” read one early headline, quoting Scrase. “It’s the wrong medicine for something really serious,” Scrase said in the Times article.

Raise the price of Ivermectin and maybe the FDA and CDC would approve it.
The cost does not suit Big Pharma who actually run the FDA and CDC and most of the politicians.

Give away HDQ and Ivermectin and the lines would be longer than the test lines.

Like the Chinese Communist Party, Big Tech Disappears Doctors


Early on in the pandemic, Big Tech censored a group known as Frontline Doctors as it worked to treat the virus with long used and tested drugs like hydroxychloroquine and Ivermectin. Ivermectin won a Nobel Prize in 2015 for the successful treatment of billions around the world for a variety of ailments.

"Ivermectin is highly effective against a range of parasites, has limited side effects and is freely available across the globe. The importance of Ivermectin for improving the health and wellbeing of millions of individuals with River Blindness and Lymphatic Filariasis, primarily in the poorest regions of the world, is immeasurable. Treatment is so successful that these diseases are on the verge of eradication, which would be a major feat in the medical history of humankind," a Nobel Prize press release states.

Big Tech also punished and suspended regular Americans for sharing information provided by these doctors.

While doctors in America haven't been arrested — yet — for issuing warnings or dissenting from the government narrative about Wuhan coronavirus, the United States and other western countries in Europe have become increasingly like communist China. It is alarming that instead of learning from the devastating consequences of Chinese censorship, which led to the deadliest pandemic in 100 years, big government officials and their allies in the tech world are emulating the fatal behavior.

Common Cold T Cells Also Protect Against COVID, British Research Concludes


It has happened frequently over the last two years: one or more members of a family becomes ill with COVID-19, while one family member remained perfectly alright. He or she is tested and nothing is found wrong. He or she simply didn’t catch the virus, didn’t get sick — nothing.

Now, British research explains why this happens: it’s because these people have high levels of immunity against certain versions of the common cold.

Imperial College London has published research which concludes that “the presence of T cells that have been induced by a ‘coronavirus cold’ can reduce the risk of becoming infected with covid when exposed to the virus.”

“Our study provides the clearest evidence to date that T cells induced by common cold coronaviruses play a protective role against [COVID] infection,” senior researcher Professor Ajit Lalvani explains. “These T cells provide protection by attacking proteins within the virus, rather than the spike protein on its surface.”

Spanish Prime Minister Wants to Treat COVID like the Flu: 'We're Going to Have to Learn to Live With It'

It has taken them two years, but Spain is finally moving to treat the coronavirus like any other flu-like virus. The country’s prime minister has said that he and his people will simply have to learn with COVID-19, and that he’ll call on the European Union to follow in Spain’s footsteps. Finally, some common sense!

On Friday, the Spanish Health Ministry reported 242,440 new infections. However, this isn’t very problematic because most “patients” aren’t actually showing any symptoms. That’s not me saying that, that’s Spain’s Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez.

As a result, he concludes that “we are going to have to learn to live with [the coronavirus] as we do with many other viruses.”
