The official COVID-19/Coronavirus Discussion Thread...aka I hope I don't get the Rona

If you applied those same numbers to the vaccine, you would get hammered in this thread. 72% of people with Ivermectin vs. 50% without got better in six days? Imagine what people in here would say if the vaccine was 72% effective and without it you still have a 50% chance of being just fine.

Get the vaccine, or have natural immunity, and be 99% protected against Covid.

I’m not really seeing the benefit of Ivermectin, at least when there’s a vaccine option.

Unless I’m totally missing the point of your Ivermectin push.

This isnt an antivax article or antivax point I'm pushing when I bring this up. Last screenshot in that post suggests repurposing cheap, safe drugs to help populations with low access to vaccines.

Also, before vaccine rollout, studies were done pushing for use of this drug. But it kept facing opposition. U can draw up whatever conclusion for that.

But considering for the vaccines to get EUA there can't be any other effective treatments against Covid, and big pharma can profit in the billions if they get to roll out their vaccines.....but won't make shit if they repurpose cheap non patented drugs like this.....well u can see the conflict of interest there.

And if there's even a shred of truth to that one can assume they put profits ahead of lives.......which wouldn't be the first time.
 
Ivermectin v remdesivir approval (long post 😅)

The Strange Story Of Remdesivir, A Covid Drug That Doesn’t Work

New studies show that the antiviral blocks Coronavirus but isn't effective for treating Covid-19.
www.google.com www.google.com
Early studies produced conflicting evidence on remdesivir’s effectiveness. Some found that Covid patients who received the drug recovered faster and fewer people died, but other studies showed that it didn’t reduce the length of hospitalization or death rate.

What’s weird about remdesivir is that it hasn’t been held to the same standards as other drug candidates.

Covid-19 vaccines have been developed 10 times faster than traditional drugs, but they’ve passed the phase-3 clinical trials that test whether a potential medicine is both safe and effective in thousands of people.

Normally, a drug is only approved for use by a regulatory body like the US Food and Drug Administration if it meets the two criteria for safety and efficacy. Nonetheless, in October 2020, remdesivir was granted approval by FDA based on promising data from relatively small trials with about 1000 participants.

Remdesivir is an expensive drug
The drug is administered over 5 or 10 days. A five-day course of treatment costs around $2600 per person.

So for a hospital with hundreds of Covid patients, that would amount to millions of dollars for one antiviral.

^^^^so this shit got approved from one study (funded by NIAID 🤔😏) that included ONLY 1000 participants.

Yet their statements on ivermectin not having enough evidence:

FDA (from WSJ article)
If the FDA were driven by science and evidence, it would give an emergency-use authorization for ivermectin for Covid-19. Instead, the FDA asserts without evidence that ivermectin is dangerous.

WHO

So they approved a drug that doesn't actually work (remdesivir) based on one study but won't approve one (ivermectin) with close to 100 (if not more) studies that shows it actually works.

Remdesivir is expensive and still under patent through Gilead:

The one that didn't get approved has no patent so no one can make money of it:

Imagine if you used both invermectin and the vaccine...
