Only 250 million people in India say you're full of shit, but never mind.
Because YOU get your information from a state controlled media with a 16% approval rating.

Over a billion in India say there's a blue God with an elephant head.
Have fun kneeling to that.

Why does invermectin scare you so? ohhhh it's a super cheap drug that wouldn't enrich pharmaceutical CEO's to any degree. Keep your tongue firmly up the establishments ass, as always Larry.

Why do the facts scare you so. I have taken the time to read the text of the study in question, (Effects of a Single Dose of Ivermectin on Viral and Clinical Outcomes in Asymptomatic SARS-CoV-2 Infected Subjects: A Pilot Clinical Trial in Lebanon). You can find it in the journal "Viruses." if you go to the full study, all of the pages are clearly marked "Retracted." The most interesting thing about this expensive study is that it had "No outside funding." I worked for the largest medical research organization in this country (the VA) and at a hospital with over 100 principal investigators, most of whom I knew. These well paid and well funded UCLA affiliated researchers would not have had the money in their institutional accounts to fund such an expensive efficacy study. I smell a rat.

I have written to the administrators of the highly respected Regional Medical Center in Lebanon and asked what they are doing to distance themselves from this fraudulent study. It will be interesting to see who funded this.

Larry Caird - the definitive source for up to date Covid news. No reason to look elsewhere. He knows " they" and " them".

I referred that guy above to real fact based sources to verify his information, He deleted his name. It might have been too much to admit he was wrong. But, he left his disinformation on the string.

You have been so wrong so many times how could anyone take what you say as truth. They can’t.

So an antiparasitic, vs a virus. Worst case scenario; it has no effect and was simply a waste of money. Best case, it actually does something beyond placebo.

I fail to see the downside.

Ivermectin is manufactured by big companies. As are all the other "supplements," you have to take over and over again. So, are all the expensive medicines the tens of thousands of people critically ill with Covid-19 have to be given. The vaccine actually decreases sales of pharmaceuticals.

The downside is that it encourages people to avoid taking a safe, highly effective vaccine that could have put this virus behind us months ago and returned things to a more normal state. The only people who benefit from anti-vax disinformation, are extremists who need disruption to further their political ends and bring in donations.

Oh yes, blame the unvaxxed for your failure of a vaccine. Meanwhile Israel is almost fully vaxxed and they are still dealing with rising covid rates but whatever it takes to divide people in as many different boxes as you can, amirite?

Nine out of every ten deaths is a person who did not get a vaccine. That looks like success to me. Those who do get sick after a vaccine ae less likely to be hospitalized or end up in an ICU. These are stats from the health care community, not politicians. And, the Tangerine Tyrant, your cult leader, wrote the book on divisiveness. So, the next step in the shuffle is to rewrite the script? It won't work. Republicans are already dumping him and on him. By 2024, all he will have is the hundreds of millions of dollars he has scammed out of you and the Unite the Whites crowd.

Bullshit, Larry. If someone gets the clot shot and dies 13 days later, they are listed as an unvaxxed death. You guys have been playing too fast and loose with the truth for too long now. Still 2 weeks to flatten the curve???

Ahhh yes. The racebaiting from the guy from the anti-white party, how absolutely shocking! Sorry, Larry, whites exist and still are the majority. Deal with it.

I have read the full text of the phony Ivermectin study from Lebanon, published in the Journal Viruses. The authors list no outside funding, which is strange, given their reference to a study they did in Iraq (unpublished) that they say reached the same conclusions. I worked for the largest research organization in America (the VA) and at a hospital with over 100 Principal Investigators. I can tell you that, without fear of contradiction, that your average researcher does not have the extra money in their institutional accounts to fund such studies. Nor do they fund this type of expensive efficacy study "out of pocket."

I have written to the administrators of the hospital in Lebanon where the study was supposedly done asking them what they are doing to clear their name. It is a Regional Medical Center well known for the quality of care. I don't think they will take the rap for this international ruse committed for the sole intent of causing chaos in the treatment of Covid-19.
