Vanderbilt researchers study ivermectin as possible COVID-19 treatment
NASHVILLE, TN (WSMV) - Vanderbilt University Medical Center is looking for people to participate in a study to see if ivermectin and other drugs can treat COVID-19.
Ivermectin is a drug typically used to treat parasitic infections, especially in livestock. Could it be a treatment for COVID-19 in humans?
I assume that it will be "proven" to be ineffective... I have a hard time imagining a scenario in which TPTB will admit they were anything less than all-knowing.
Dosage checks out. The higher dosage you refer to is -cidal for parasites. The anti-viral dosage to inhibit replication is much less than that. This dosage should provide good evidence for it's benefit, provided the research isn't tainted by those with an agenda.
Cured me using Ann Barnhart recipe. 1 mg. Per 110 lbs. 48 hrs. Apart. 3 doses I was good to go. I used the livestock 1% injectable in grape juice. I am almost 74 yrs. old. No hospital for me. Daughter-in-law needed 4 doses, now she is fine.
First problem: Article says: "Ivermectin is a drug typically used to treat parasitic infections, especially in livestock." This sentence should start with "In First World countries..." Ivermectin was developed specifically for use in humans with parasitic infections.
Second problem: The test subject knows what drug she received. In a good double-blind study, no one knows who got what. Not the subjects, nor the people administering they drug. So any results that don't fit the current narrative will be quickly dismissed. But, of course, if the results DO fit the current narrative, then they will be used as an "I told you so".
Kudos to the article for at least pointing out that Ivermectin is not harmful to humans who don't take a veterinary size dose.
There's a map out there somewhere of African Covid cases comparing African countries who prescribe Hydroxychloroquine or ivermectin as an anti malarial to those that don't.
Guess which countries are doing much much better with Covid cases.
Yeah, careful with that interpretation Nemo. I've already heard people claiming it's the rampant use of ivermectin in Africa that has allowed for this new, more severe mutation. And as much as I hate to say this, there could be some truth to that concern.
Because this study has been let out of the bag, I would assume that the results are already known, and they are just trying to get ahead of the story. No doubt, if it is a success, the fact that it works will be quietly released next Friday evening, after the last news story has been put to bed. That is how any news that the Administration hates to have get out does it, they wait until the weekend, when all of the news outlets have left for their weekend in the Hamptons with the rich and famous.
Many large studies (outside of the US) already done showing that it's nearly 100% effective as a preventative and depending upon the stage of infection, just shy of 80% effective as a treatment. If Vanderbilt University Medical Center comes up with something else this is no "study", it's just more propaganda.

ReplyDeleteI have a hard time imagining a scenario in which TPTB will admit they were anything less than all-knowing.
I had the same thought.
DeleteFrom that story, double vaxxed and has Covid anyway…
ReplyDelete“I’m double vaccinated,” said Coleman. “I want to do anything I can to help the science advance and help people, you know, stay well.”
While Coleman has COVID-19…
Lord, they think their Big Tech censorship is 100% absolute and no truth manages to get out.
ReplyDeleteDo they expect a Gomer Pyle SHAZAAM from us about this??
I like the gratuitous "especially in livestock". In other news, water, a chemical injested more by animals than humans...
ReplyDeleteThe Ivermectin dose provided, 7 mg, won't do too much for most people. That's the dosage for a 75 pound person based on the weight formula.

ReplyDeleteThat's the same dosage and method I use every Friday to keep it away.

DeleteYeah rayvet, except for the fact that all four of those coming down with the variant were FULLY VACCINATED.
DeleteWhere have those idiots been the last two years?

How many months behind are these idiots? Ivermectin could have rendered this "virus" no worse than the annual flu.
