A lot of people are angry that more doctors aren’t prescribing ivermectin when they first get diagnosed with COVID. However, a Washington State physician assistant lost his license because he prescribed ivermectin. Most doctors, having invested years upwards of seven years of their lives in preparing to be a physician, don’t want to destroy that career over a politically incorrect prescription. Andrea Salcedo, who to my great surprise has degrees in journalism, is a terrible writer.
Everything I’ve read suggests you have to take the Ivermectin as soon as you suspect you have Covid. It doesn’t work if you’re so sick you have to be hospitalized and given oxygen.

Doctors are following the stampede, not leading the way out of this mess.
Character is the biggest shortage in our current medical system.
When they spot someone with character, they target them to be trampled by the stampede.
Remember that in the Nuremberg trials, following orders was not a defense. There are people on medical and pharmacy boards that will face worse punishment than merely being fired.

There is a study in the American Journal of Therapeutics 28, e434–e460 (2021) about using Ivermectin for the treatment and prevention of the CCP virus.

Thank you for the source, #3. A very good read.
The conclusion in this scientific study reads as follows:
"Moderate-certainty evidence finds that large reductions in COVID-19 deaths are possible using ivermectin. Using ivermectin early in the clinical course may reduce numbers progressing to severe disease. The apparent safety and low cost suggest that ivermectin is likely to have a significant impact on the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic globally."
In the 3rd paragraph of the Introduction of this article, there is "scientific evidence" cited that demonstrates Ivermectin's efficacy in 27 different studies.
So...why is a preponderance of the "scientific" medical community NOT following the "scientific evidence" for this drug when it comes to Covid-19? Why?

Raise the cost of Ivermectin and HCQ to $500 dollars a dose and Big Pharma will be recommending it.

There is a time to stand your ground and fight for a change and time to let it all collapse. He needs to pick up a copy of Atlas Shrugged for the trip and move to a red state. Let the rest enjoy the authoritarian utopia they built.

#4, I can answer that, however, I believe you already know the answer. We are not promoting drug therapies that have been shown to work because this virus is a political tool that is being used by the democrat party to gain control, more power and money for them and their supporters. At its heart, this has never been about public health and has always been about public control. These soulless ghouls just ignore the deaths and suffering they are causing because they are fascists. “Everything in the State, nothing outside the State, nothing against the State.” And done by any means possible.

#1 that's not true! Look at Table 1 Ivermectin is beneficial at every stage of Covid illness even the pulmonary inflammatory stage!

The next level is for antivirals or drugs that behave as such will be labeled Schedule I controlled substances… right up there with morphine, heroine, meth, and a host of other forbidden.

I appreciate that this PA is trying to save people's lives. And I do believe that ivermectin does either kill the virus directly (seems most likely from in vitro studies) or at least prevents reproduction of the virus. Either way, it is a useful drug. Look at India's experience.
From my understanding of what ivermectin does, prescribing it late in the disease when the virus has already caused serious damage is likely to be of limited value. Even if the ivermectin quickly wipes out all the virus, the huge systemic damage the virus has caused to multiple organs remains, and the patient needs whatever medical support possible to have a chance to survive this pre-existing injury. Is it a waste of time to give ivermectin at late stages of the disease? I don't know, but it is clearly most effective when given in the first few days when the number of viruses is low, and the amount of harm that they have done is low, and when stopping the virus will result in a quick return to normal health.
Best wishes to PA Miller, he is braver and smarter than a lot of MDs.

I posted this in another thread yesterday. The NIH has quietly recognized ivermectin. Second entry down on this page:
https://www.covid19treatmentguidelines.nih.gov/tables/table-2e/
Doesn't WA state want to follow the 'science'? Maybe someone should ask them that 'on-air'. Perhaps Project Veritas could get the clowns in the state agency to answer that question. And get the name of the person in the bureaucracy that decided to pull the license of that PA.

Thanks for the link #12.
Given the zero fanfare, I presume it is a CYA put in place so at some future date they can point to this and say,
"We had that listed as a treatment back in summer of 2021."

This brave man should indeed move to a red state - not that we are not having the exact lack of moral integrity in our medical system BUT it is not as bad. Just like our broken education system, he could help lead a righteous revolution in medicine.
My son is in WA state this week. He has found several Christian physicians in his rural pretty red area and they gave him a sheet with exact info where to get hcq, ivermectin.

So…both ivermectin and hydrochorquine (spelling?)which have a proven track record in several other countries for effectively curing this virus is bad. Yet we’re all being held hostage with daily threats and loss of employment and freedom if we don’t take a vaccine that has a proven track record of being a cause of death. Am I missing anything?
