Can we lynch the Nevada governor now?

This is why you need to archive anything they say negative towards it now. So you can.
Like with Whitmer, she's begging everyone now to just get it in. Didn't want it at first because Orange Man Drugs Bad.

Hydroxychloroquine rated ‘most effective therapy’ by doctors for coronavirus: Global survey

An international poll of more than 6,000 doctors released Thursday found that the antimalarial drug hydroxychloroquine was the most highly rated treatment for the novel coronavirus.

100% anecdotal, but have a friend who travels to weird places. They are on a schedule of anti parasitics
including ivermectin because of this. They started to get wuflu symptoms such as sore throat, burning lungs, chest pains etc. they were treating it as a cold, but took their regimen of anti paracitical drug because it was due. they said they felt like shit during the dosing (3 days) but afterwards were fine, with no after cold or anything, just gone.

I'm posting this because I suspect anti parasitics are relatively safe, have been tested for a long time and anecdotal evidence is mounting up.

Did the say how much they were taking? I have seen the ivermectin paper, but I haven't heard of any clinical trials. It's a better choice than niclosamide, since niclosamide doesn't really get absorbed into your system very well.

Michigan state legislator Karen Whitsett, (D-Detroit) is recovering from a confirmed case of coronavirus, and credits Trump and hydroxychloroquine for her recovery.

Detroit rep says hydroxychloroquine, Trump helped save her life amid COVID-19 fight

Rep. Karen Whitsett, D-Detroit, said she does not believe she would have been given the drug if President Trump had not touted it.

Legit if I start coughing I'm dosing myself by drinking the ivermectin I have in my cabinet. It's a very safe drug, if you're not an Australian Shepherd Dog, and I already have it anyway.

Not all antiparasitics are super safe. Levamisole is quite touchy, for instance. But ivermectin is a good boy as far as toxicity goes.


EDIT: For those of you who aren't farmers, heartworm prevention pills for dogs often contains Ivermectin. Heartgard, frinstance. Just putting that out there if you're curious.

I do not know, except it is prescribed to them and not guesswork. I can try asking though.

Heartgard's ivermectin content is less than 300 micrograms. That's probably not be enough to give you a meaningful benefit.

EDIT: Just did some back of the envelope math... Think you'd need at least 15 mg to get the concentrations you need. It's doable with proper pills for human consumption.

Possible treatment for corona being tested

 

[Wallace]

Yeah, that's the one. It's worth trying out different treatments, all in vitro testing does is just suggest a possibility. Sure, this drug kills the virus in the dish, but so does bleach.

They seem to not want treatments of any sort. So it will be interesting to see if this moves at a snail's pace for "testing" or if it will be seeing a war of politically biased experts.

Yeah, can the people of the US take Hydroxychloroquine already? I mean for god's sake it works for so many people. Everyone should know the truth and not listen to fake news.

Senegal. Genuinely, of the African countries, Senegal is one of the better ones. When Senegal is saying Awesome, this drug is working so far and no politics is involved but American doctors are all politics about it... kinda scary. Italy has also been using it and seeing people heal faster.

Over in NY, Fredo is making a miraculous recovery... as one NY County Executive pointed out :

"Governor, you're gonna tell me that your brother got really sick, and he didn't get hydroxychloroquine?" Mclaughlin asked. "Really? We're supposed to believe that? I doubt it."

Fredo Snr has been asking for more HC, but NYC Health Commissioner and known disliker of Trump said that "there's very few patients who can take it"... which flies in the face of what other doctors have been saying.

Suddenly NY ICU numbers are dropping off magically. Fredo recovers. Cuomo doesn't want the drugs dispersed before his fresh batch comes in. Weird, huh?
Bit sad that people like Dr Barbot would put politics before helping people, but whatever.

Blood transfusion/antibody stuff is promising too. They don't seem to care if it's teaming with HIV or not.

Or 1.5 mL of Ivomec, if you happen to have that. Thanks for the heads up that you'd need insane amounts of heartworm preventative, though.

Down the hatch. This is a no coofing zone.

You understand I assume no liability for what happens to you as a result of taking that, right?

I'm still waiting to get dosages from my friend, but one thing they told me, ivermectin is great, but if you actually have what it is killing, you get pretty sick as the wastes leave your body. It might work well yet be contraindicated for a really ill person. They finally went to a doc and got an xray, no test, they were more worried about parasite recurrance in their lungs than coronachan.

Anti-parasite drugs are like that. A lot of harmful buggers produce various toxins while they're in your body, and killing them causes all of those toxins to get dumped into your system at once. If you were using ivermectin as an antiviral, you probably wouldn't have that problem. Of course, maybe you have something else in your system too. I don't know enough to really say with any certainty.

Of course. I ain't scared of a little deworming.

EDIT: Mind you, I'm saying if I start coofing, I'll take a dollar's worth of livestock medicine I already have on hand and know to be safe. Ivomec has a wide margin of safety. I'm not advocating anyone go out and buy it, or take it preventatively, and definitely don't take just any antihelminthic, because some of them are quite ticklish.

Why is the world so slow on getting the hydroxychloroquine treatment? It is shown to work a lot and reports are increasing and yet, people still are trying to stop it with politics/Orange Man Bad. What is this screwed priorities over lives?

I'm still hoping ivermectin turns out to be the silver bullet. But I'm racist against nematodes.
