https://sebastianrushworth.com/2021/05/09/update-on-ivermectin-for-covid-19/

Back in January I wrote an article about four randomized controlled trials of ivermectin as a treatment for covid-19 that had at that time released their results to the public. Each of those four trials had promising results, but each was also too small individually to show any meaningful impact on the hard outcomes we really care about, like death. When I meta-analyzed them together however, the results suddenly appeared very impressive. Here’s what that meta-analysis looked like:



It showed a massive 78% reduction in mortality in patients treated with covid-19. Mortality is the hardest of hard end points, which means it’s the hardest for researchers to manipulate and therefore the least open to bias. Either someone’s dead, or they’re alive. End of story.

You would have thought that this strong overall signal of benefit in the midst of a pandemic would have mobilized the powers that be to arrange multiple large randomized trials to confirm these results as quickly as possible, and that the major medical journals would be falling over each other to be the first to publish these studies.

That hasn’t happened.

Rather the opposite, in fact. South Africa has even gone so far as to ban doctors from using ivermectin on covid-19 patients. And as far as I can tell, most of the discussion about ivermectin in mainstream media (and in the medical press) has centred not around its relative merits, but more around how its proponents are clearly deluded tin foil hat wearing crazies who are using social media to manipulate the masses.

In spite of this, trial results have continued to appear. That means we should now be able to conclude with even greater certainty whether or not ivermectin is effective against covid-19. Since there are so many of these trials popping up now, I’ve decided to limit the discussion here only to the ones I’ve been able to find that had at least 150 participants, and that compared ivermectin to placebo (although I’ll add even the smaller trials I’ve found in to the updated meta-analysis at the end).

As before, it appears that rich western countries have very little interest in studying ivermectin as a treatment for covid. The three new trials that had at least 150 participants and compared ivermectin with placebo were conducted in Colombia, Iran, and Argentina. We’ll go through each in turn. ...

What we see is a 62% reduction in the relative risk of dying among covid patients treated with ivermectin. That would mean that ivermectin prevents roughly three out of five covid deaths. The reduction is statistically significant (p-value 0,004). In other words, the weight of evidence supporting ivermectin continues to pile up. It is now far stronger than the evidence that led to widespred use of remdesivir earlier in the pandemic, and the effect is much larger and more important (remdesivir was only ever shown to marginally decrease length of hospital stay, it was never shown to have any effect on risk of dying).

I understand why pharmaceutical companies don’t like ivermectin. It’s a cheap generic drug. Even Merck, the company that invented ivermectin, is doing it’s best to destroy the drug’s reputation at the moment. This can only be explained by the fact that Merck is currently developing two expensive new covid drugs, and doesn’t want an off-patent drug, which it can no longer make any profit from, competing with them.

The only reason I can think to understand why the broader medical establishment, however, is still so anti-ivermectin is that these studies have all been done outside the rich west. Apparently doctors and scientists outside North America and Western Europe can’t be trusted, unless they’re saying things that are in line with our pre-conceived notions.


And HCQ falls into that same bucket. Even worse - to admit HCQ works would be to admit Trump was right about something.

Liberals would rather that millions die than that Trump be allowed to be right about anything. They hate Trump more than they love their fellow humans.

From the link: "Remdesivir on the other hand, is expensive and carries significant concerns regarding toxicity."

Remdesivir is a poison, not a medication. We learned that Remdesivir is a poison in May 2020 when The Lancet reported that Remdesivir performed worse than a placebo! In other words you are better off not taking Remdesivir.

"Findings... Adverse events were reported in 102 (66%) of 155 Remdesivir recipients versus 50 (64%) of 78 placebo recipients. Remdesivir was stopped early because of adverse events in 18 (12%) patients versus four (5%) patients who stopped placebo early." https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(20)31022-9/fulltext

According to Dr. Bryan Ardis, Remdesivir kills 30% of the patients receiving it. <==== Read this again.

Hixson Tennessee. They ship anywhere in the US.

I've dealt with AlldayChemist for the last 3 years - they are pretty good. Shipping takes 4-6 weeks, so order early.

I'll have to check out Medicine Counter Pharmacy. When I was on my road trip I stopped at a random big-box pharmacy in TN, but they didn't have any ivermectin. If they have good prices (<= $1 per 12 mg pill), then they might be my new go to.

SafeGenericPharmacy seems to have the best listed ivermectin prices ($0.80 per pill for 12 mg). That's another option.

Thanks Patrick!

A massive poker tell

One cannot just say “no vaccines.” One has to explain how any acute infections will be treated. Which makes me wonder anew about Pharma’s ferocious assault on ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine. Yes, they were creating a market for the Covid vaccines. But in retrospect it feels like a massive poker tell. It seems that Pharma knows these existing medicines (and many others) are incredibly effective at treating a broad ranges of infectious diseases (Covid and beyond) — possibly eliminating any justification whatsoever for vaccines. That’s why Pharma and their friends at the FDA went berserker to try to suppress these meds (at the cost of millions of lives).

Ivermectin: enigmatic multifaceted ‘wonder’ drug continues to surprise and exceed expectations

Over the past decade, the global scientific community have begun to recognize the unmatched value of an extraordinary drug, ivermectin, that originates from a single microbe unearthed from soil in Japan. Work on ivermectin has seen its discoverer, Satoshi Ōmura, of Tokyo’s prestigious Kitasato Institute, receive the 2014 Gairdner Global Health Award and the 2015 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine, which he shared with a collaborating partner in the discovery and development of the drug, William Campbell of Merck & Co. Incorporated. Today, ivermectin is continuing to surprise and excite scientists, offering more and more promise to help improve global public health by treating a diverse range of diseases, with its unexpected potential as an antibacterial, antiviral and anti-cancer agent being particularly extraordinary.

After much speculation, it has now been reported that ivermectin, which has been shown to be effective in prophylaxis and treatment of COVID-19 in many published controlled and randomised clinical trials, binds tightly to both the spike protein on the SARS-CoV-2 virus itself and to the spike protein produced by the mRNA gene-based COVID-19 “vaccines”. It is the spike protein which is the mediator of toxicity of both the virus and the “vaccines”. The binding renders the spike protein incapable of facilitating its toxic effects.

Dr. Pierre Kory: The Smear Campaign Against Ivermectin Caused Millions to Die Around the World

Ivermectin is often recognized – 2nd to penicillin – for having the greatest impact on human health. Its discovery even won the Nobel Prize.

But the propagandists told you it was a “dangerous horse dewormer.” Now, why would they do such a thing?

Because ivermectin’s existence threatened a multi-hundred billion dollar vaccine enterprise. The COVID shots forced upon the world would not be able to exist if ivermectin was shown to be effective.

The Emergency Use Authorization states:

“For the FDA to issue an EUA, there must be no adequate, approved, and available alternative candidate product for diagnosing, preventing, or treating the disease or condition.”

So, they had to smear and discredit ivermectin.

And in doing so, Dr. Pierre Kory says, “that has caused millions of people to die around the world.”

I know the links to Ivermectin and HCQ are buried in this thread, but perhaps a sticky of best providers would be helpful. On the other hand, this might bring unwanted attention by the feds to them, so I put it for group discussion.

FDA loses its war on ivermectin and agrees to remove all social media posts and consumer directives regarding ivermectin and COVID, including its most popular tweet in FDA history.

This landmark case sets an important precedent in limiting FDA overreach into the doctor-patient relationship.

FDA LOSES WAR ON IVERMECTIN

At long last, the FDA has been ordered to remove misleading information regarding ivermectin by Federal court order in the US. ...

The Epoch Times reported on 22 March: “The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has agreed to remove social media posts and webpages that urged people to stop taking ivermectin to treat COVID-19, according to a settlement dated March 21.”

The FDA has already removed a page that said: “Should I take ivermectin to prevent or treat COVID-19? No.”

However, the FDA has not admitted to any violation of law or any wrongdoing.

We will never know how many lives were lost due to the misinformation coming from the FDA and our own health authorities due to the failure to recommend and institute early effective treatment of COVID-19. We need a Royal Commission.

Uh, Oh! The Rockefellers aren't going to like this. They'll have to sell more street fentanyl to make up for the loss of profits from the increase in population health. So, what does it mean exactly when you have to sue the agency that is supposed to oversee the health and safety of our country in order to keep them from doing the opposite?

The increase on the general health of the overall population.

After these last 3 years, it seems hard for me to deny that the purpose of modern medicine isn't to help people, it's to hurt them and make them dependents. They are basically drug pushers making you addicted not to getting high, but making you addicted to not feeling ill or sick.

The vaccines did NOTHING other than harm people. I know a few people now that think they were negatively, and perhaps permanently, effected by the injection. One is a rock climber that believes he's become considerably weaker since he took the injection. I know several women who were just beyond menopause that started experiencing menstruation again. One guy got blood clots and he's like early 40's.
