Here you go... another anti-parasite drug... https://medlineplus.gov/druginfo/meds/a607069.html
"The FDA's Center for Veterinary Medicine has recently become aware of increased public visibility of the antiparasitic drug ivermectin after the announcement of a research article that described the effect of ivermectin on SARS-CoV-2 in a laboratory setting. The Antiviral Research pre-publication paper, The FDA-approved drug ivermectin inhibits the replication of SARS-CoV-2 in vitro documents how SARS-CoV-2 (the virus that causes COVID-19) responded to ivermectin when exposed in a petri dish.
Ivermectin is FDA-approved for use in animals for prevention of heartworm disease in some small animal species, and for treatment of certain internal and external parasites in various animal species."
As Woody pointed out- this study hasn't been peer reviewed, or probably not duplicated... MHO? peer review controlled studies of hydroxychloroquine vs placebo have shown no statistical benefit.. Soooo... well.... let's just try another anti parasitic drug that's used on animals for kicks and giggles to see if that will work... Works in a laboratory setting? I can guarantee you 5% bleach will wipe out covid19 in a petri dish too. Maybe you guys ought to try injecting that like President Lysol suggested...Cure assured, but you'll also be pretty dead...
PS- That this drug is being suppressed by Big Pharma is, as usual- total conspiracy bullshit. If it really works as advertised, drug manufacturers would be falling all over themselves to pump out as much as they possibly could...

I wonder if a woodpecker can get heartworm. That would explain a good bit.

Except that ivermectin is a generic drug that is off patent; it goes for roughly $4 a pill. Pharmaceutical companies are just like companies in any other industry; their goal is to make a profit. On-patent medicine sells for quite alot more than generic drugs, and can only be made by the pharma company that holds the patent and other companies that they contract out to. Faced with choosing between producing a generic medication for little profit and can be made by anyone, or, selling a medication that can bring in substantially more money and can only be made by the patent holder, what course of action do you think pharmaceutical companies would take? It wouldn't surprise me at all for pharma companies to try to suppress continued research and clinical trials into an off-patent generic drug.
Btw, the fact that a medication starts out as veterinary drug is pretty inconsequential. Many drugs that are developed start out as such until clinical trials demonstrate their usefulness in treating humans. It happens all the time. And using a medicine to treat something that it wasn't originally designed for happens all the time too. Pfizer was a middle of the road pharma company in the 90s until they found out that their failed heart medicine was excellent for giving Baby Boomers erections, and now they're in the top 5 largest pharma companies in the world.

Look at it this way, Larry: the pharma companies producing the Covid-19 vaccine are charging anywhere from $4-$20 per dose; many of which require two doses to be effective. That's billions of dollars in profit that they're getting from just the US alone, not to mention the money they get from other countries around the world. The companies making the vaccine have little to no liability if their vaccine is ineffective or causes dangerous side effects, so they don't have to worry about accruing fines if their shit is bunk or harmful, unlike other medicines. And each companies' vaccine is under patent to them, which enhances their profits even more. So why would pharma companies be interested in doing clinical trials on an off-patent, generic drug that anyone can make and sells for significantly less than the vaccines that they're producing? There's little to no financial incentive for them to do so.
That's also why the US and many other western countries are in a bind right now with having shortages of basic antibiotics and generic medicines: they make little to no money making them domestically, so they moved their production overseas to China where the low production costs there let them turn a profit. He'll, penicillin is one of the most basic and effective antibiotics ever discovered, and the last US company which made it domestically closed in 2004.
Full disclosure: the company I work for is a contactor for one of the major pharma players making the Covid-19 vaccine, so I got to peak behind the curtain and can see how the sausage is made to a certain level.

My sister is a registered nurse working in a covid wing in Jacksonville. She claims people with both vaccinations are still being intubated and almost unilaterally the people dying are fat.
I tend to take her at her word more than some talking head asshole on cable news.

The fact that covid-19 vaccines have been touted as a panacea that completely prevents getting sick shows the lack of scientific education in this country. The covid-19 vaccine is effective at preventing someone from dying of the virus, but much like other vaccines, it's not 100% effective. People get flu shots every year and still get sick from the flu and some still die. Vaccines are harm reduction, not impervious shields. That's why I think it's criminal that other drugs like ivermectin, which can be used in conjunction with vaccines and other treatments to prevent or reduce covid symptoms, is not being given more attention and funding for research.

No doubt. Just for the record how safe do you think the government is going to be able to keep everybody?
And even though some educated people make a compelling argument for it I think anti vaxing is stupid. Not as stupid as wearing a mask in your car, walking down the street or on the bike trail but still….

It just goes to show, to me, that the "pandemic" (and man am I fucking sick of hearing the dumbest people I've ever met going on about that) is exactly as bad as the attention it receives. If the media wants it to be over to boost support for their cause then it is over. If the media wants it to be the top story and the end of the world it is that.

I mean.... Hundreds of thousands of people have died...
It kinda was/is "the" story.
You can not like that. And we can agree all media wants to get views. But this was still a very big deal that irreversibly changed millions of lives

You missed the point I see. Nothing has changed except the way they're treating it. People are still being intubated. People are still dying. But because they decree it's over so that joe biden can take credit for it, it's effectively over.
Early man walked away as modern man took control. Their minds weren't all the same and to conquer was their goal. So He built his great empires and he slaughtered his own kind, and he died a confused man and killed himself in his own mind... -

If 5 people die, then people are still dying.
If 5000 people die, then a LOT more people are dying. There is a significant difference between these two numbers.

I mean, it's definitely a hell of a lot better, but we still need to finish strong. It isn't "gone" by any means. I hope our stupid ass population continues to get vaccinated.
Whatever war people want to wage against "MSM", while ignoring the massive right-wing media base, is their own thing. I'm over the complaining.

Great- then some pharmaceutical company should be doing a ton of research to see it it works- or not.
Show me a few peer reviewed duplicate studies instead of a guy with an agenda to prove it works- first- and then I might believe it...
Hello? Some people are making one hell of a lot of money selling generic sildenafil of late...

Of course it isn't gone. The flu isn't gone the common cold isn't gone cancer isn't gone. Maybe smallpox tuberculosis and polio have been weakened significantly but look at TB. It still rears its ugly head partially because of improper prescription of antibiotics. Also heart disease diabetes and cancer which could all be significantly reduced just by human activity. And yet…. But Hey panic makes us feel special.

I'll just point out to you that it's summer again. By Christmas I expect the government will be ordering quarantines and enforcing virtue signal wearing at gunpoint.
The problem is they'll have already blown their wad. I doubt trust and respect for the government has ever been at a lower level in this country.
I hope it gets to 1790s France level honestly.
