Ivermectin, you dont see people bring the topic up much anymore.

Its a good way to tell how influenced someone is by something like fake news.

For the last decade, Lemoi had taken a daily dose of veterinary ivermectin, a dewormer designed to be used on large animals like horses and cows. In 2021, as ivermectin became a popular alternative COVID-19 treatment among anti-vaxxers, he launched what became one of the largest Telegram channels dedicated to promoting the use of it, including instructions on how to administer ivermectin to children.

“Danny was fully convinced that his heart had regenerated after his incident with Lyme disease that almost ended in congestive heart failure,” the admins wrote, before claiming that “a family history of heart disease and chronic stress” were why his heart had ultimately become engorged. “All of his other organs were unremarkable,” the admins wrote. “And this was determined to be a death by unfortunate natural causes.”

I love the comment at the bottom by a woman. Why are women so easily swayed by propaganda, ive noticed this before. They make perfect lackeys for the powers that be. Nearly every person who screwed me over in my work injury was a woman. Fucked.

When I realize how truly stupid so many people are, it discourages me about the fate of our nation. Ivermectin is for large ANIMALS and can cause all sorts of terrible side effects (including death) in humans.

Now, im no doctor, or veterinary, so I have no clue if the vet dosages are indeed formulated with different things than the human made ones. I believe it, because animal rights are non existent basically.

But no one has died from ivermectin itself. Ivermectin is a wonder drug, and distilling it down to "horse paste" just tells me that someone has never read anything about it. Infuriating. A drug so safe they can give it to people in third world countries who cant read as a preventative for getting all sorts of nasty things.

So its strange to me that people would have to resort getting the veterinary form of it because they cant find a doctor willing to prescribe it. In fact notice in that article I linked, he was taking it for lyme disease, not covid.

I suspect this article is fake. Or at least one of them is actually a covid death lmao.

In an update on COVID-19 in the state on Wednesday, acting state Health Secretary Dr. David Scrase said two unnamed people in the state died from ivermectin poisoning, one of which was already dealing with a severe case of COVID-19.

"It is not recommended by the FDA for this indication of treating COVID," Scrase reiterated on Wednesday. Nonetheless, he said some hospitalizations for ivermectin-related toxic reactions involved patients with prescriptions for the drug, which could be a sign of improper dosing.

COVID-19: The Ivermectin African Enigma

Conclusions:

The incidence in mortality rates and number of cases is significantly lower among the APOC countries compared to non-APOC countries. That a mass public health preventive campaign against COVID-19 may have taken place, inadvertently, in some African countries with massive community ivermectin use is an attractive hypothesis. Additional studies are needed to confirm it.

Lol, funny how the news only reports what fits their agenda.

If you think ivermectin is just "horse paste" i suggest looking up the origins of the medicine.

Its as much as "horse paste" as antibiotics are I suppose, since they both work through living pathogens.

edit

Yeah, this is a really good source here.

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.

Today, ivermectin remains a relatively unknown drug, although few, if any, other drugs can rival ivermectin for its beneficial impact on human health and welfare.

Perhaps more than any other drug, ivermectin is a drug for the world’s poor. For most of this century, some 250 million people have been taking it annually to combat two of the world’s most devastating, disfiguring, debilitating and stigma-inducing diseases, Onchocerciasis and Lymphatic filariasis. Most of the recipients live in remote, rural, desperately under-resourced communities in developing countries and have virtually no access to even the most rudimentary of medical interventions. Moreover, all the treatments have been made available free of charge thanks to the unprecedented drug donation program.

Since the prodigious drug donation operation began, 1.5 billion treatments have been approved. Latest figures show that an estimated 186.6 million people worldwide are still in need of treatment, with over 112.7 million people being treated yearly, predominantly in Africa.

For long the sole agent used in control efforts, ivermectin has been so successful that the goal has now switched from disease control to worldwide disease elimination.

Surprisingly, despite 40 years of unmatched global success, plus widespread intensive scientific study in both the public and private sectors, scientists are still not certain exactly how ivermectin works. Moreover, whereas ivermectin-resistant parasites swiftly appeared in treated animals,28 as well as in ectoparasites, such as copepods parasitizing salmon in fish farms,29 somewhat bizarrely and almost uniquely, no confirmed drug resistance appears to have arisen in parasites in human populations, even in those that have been taking ivermectin as a monotherapy for over 30 years.

The avermectins potentiate neurotransmission by disrupting glutamate-gated chloride channels, as well as having minor effects on γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptors. They disrupt neurotransmission in nerve and muscle cells, causing hyperpolarisation of the neuronal membrane, inducing paralysis of somatic muscles, particularly the pharyngeal pump, killing the parasites. GABA-related channels are commonplace throughout nematodes and insects, whereas in mammals, GABA receptors and neurons are restricted to the central nervous system. Ivermectin is therefore very safe for vertebrates, as it cannot cross the blood–brain barrier.

Its horse paste though!

Ivermectin has now been used for over three decades to treat parasitic infections in mammals, and has an extremely good safety profile, with numerous studies reporting low rates of adverse events when given as an oral treatment for parasitic infections.50 Several problematic reactions have been recorded, but they are generally mild and usually do not necessitate discontinuation of the drug.
