they both look so happy, which is why i love it

Weird because we were often told that otherwise healthy young adults or kids don't need to get vaccinated because the vaccine isn't safe...

Maddow's level of hack is something like original Hannity. I've watched her show maybe twice, she sucks. 

Sharpton sucks. Right-wing equivalent is maybe someone like Franklin Graham or some other evangelist who regularly appeals to the victim complex of Christians. 

I don't even know who the 3rd guy is.

Uttar Pradesh government says early use of Ivermectin helped to keep positivity, deaths low

Claiming that timely introduction of Ivermectin since the first wave has helped the state maintain a relatively low positivity rate despite in its high population density.

A year after the country’s first Covid-19 cluster, with 5 cases, was reported in Agra district, the Uttar Pradesh government has claimed that it was the first state to have introduced a large-scale "prophylactic and therapeutic” use of Ivermectin and added that the drug helped the state to maintain a lower fatality and positivity rate as compared to other states.

Citing the results from Agra in the month of May and June last year, following which the use of Ivermectin, a medicine to treat parasitic ailments, along with Doxycycline was introduced as a protocol across the state for both prophylactic as well as treatment purposes, the state Health Department said it would conduct a controlled study once the second wave of the pandemic subsides.

The state Health Department introduced Ivermectin as prophylaxis for close contacts of Covid patients, health workers as well as for the treatment of the patients themselves through a government order on August 6, 2020, after a committee headed by the Director General, Medical and Health Services, gave it the go ahead.

"Uttar Pradesh was the first state in the country to introduce large-scale prophylactic and therapeutic use of Ivermectin. In May-June 2020, a team at Agra, led by Dr Anshul Pareek, administered Ivermectin to all RRT team members in the district on an experimental basis. It was observed that none of them developed Covid-19 despite being in daily contact with patients who had tested positive for the virus,” Uttar Pradesh State Surveillance Officer Vikssendu Agrawal said.

He added that based on the findings from Agra, the state government sanctioned the use of Ivermectin as a prophylactic for all the contacts of Covid patients and later cleared the administration of therapeutic doses for the treatment of such patients.

Claiming that timely introduction of Ivermectin since the first wave has helped the state maintain a relatively low positivity rate despite its high population density, he said, "Despite being the state with the largest population base and a high population density, we have maintained a relatively low positivity rate and cases per million of population”.

He said that apart from aggressive contact tracing and surveillance, the lower positivity and fatality rates may be attributed to the large-scale use of Ivermectin use in the state, adding that the drug has recently been introduced in the National Protocol for Covid treatment and management. "Once the second wave subsides, we would conduct our own study as there has been an emerging body of evidence to substantiate our timely use of Ivermectin from the first wave itself,” Vikasendu told The Indian Express.

Agra District Magistrate Prabhu N Singh also attributed the state’s relative success in keeping the Covid numbers down to the timely nod to the use of Ivermectin as a prophylactic. He added that government doctor Anshul Pareek had approached him last year citing use of the medicine abroad.

"We reported the first Covid-19 cluster in the country after five members of a family, who had returned from Italy, tested positive. Soon, the virus spread, with a large number of police personnel getting affected. Doctor Pareek approached me with a request to introduce Ivermectin on an experimental basis. I was told there are no risks involved with the use of the drug,” Singh told The Indian Express.

"Uttar Pradesh was the first state in the country to introduce large-scale prophylactic and therapeutic use of Ivermectin. In May-June 2020, a team at Agra, led by Dr. Anshul Pareek, administered Ivermectin to all RRT team members in the district on an experimental basis.

"Once the second wave subsides, we would conduct our own study as there has been an emerging body of evidence to substantiate our timely use of Ivermectin from the first wave itself,” Vikasendu told The Indian Express.”

One would think the World Health Organization, Big Pharma, the mainstream media, and Dr. Anthony Fauci would be overjoyed by this development that ivermectin is undoubtedly saving lives.

But don’t count on them celebrating that, because that would hurt their bottom lines of profit and power from their experimental and ineffective vaccines.

I read the article and there is disinformation there - photos of horsepaste and a statement that Ivermectin is exclusively used for animals when it has been safely used by people for years.  Anybody who thinks that special interests in the nature of Big Pharm do not have significant influence over the FDA and CDC has their head buried in the sand.

I want to know who's been paid off to push these bogus treatments.

I won't call them vaccines because they aren't. Not a Fing one of them.

Trumpbots once again proving that illiteracy is the real pandemic in this country...

Ivermectin is almost exclusively used to treat parasites in horses and cattle and, in rare instances, humans. 

"Same drug, different formulation, different dose,” said Scrase. "If you take too much, you go into a coma, you may have seizures, you may have hallucinations, it's basically a neurologic toxin.”

This paper looks in depth at the events surrounding ivermectin’s passage from being a huge success in Animal Health into its widespread use in humans, a development which has led many to describe it as a "wonder” drug.

* * *

There are few drugs that can seriously lay claim to the title of ‘Wonder drug’, penicillin and aspirin being two that have perhaps had greatest beneficial impact on the health and wellbeing of Mankind. But ivermectin can also be considered alongside those worthy contenders, based on its versatility, safety and the beneficial impact that it has had, and continues to have, worldwide—especially on hundreds of millions of the world’s poorest people.

* * *

Ivermectin proved to be even more of a ‘Wonder drug’ in human health, improving the nutrition, general health and wellbeing of billions of people worldwide ever since it was first used to treat Onchocerciasis in humans in 1988.

* * *

It is likely that, throughout the next decade, well over 200 million people will be taking the drug annually or semi-annually, via innovative globally-coordinated Mass Drug Administration (MDA) programmes.

Maybe but it is an established fact that the states with the lowest percentage of people with college degrees also have the lowest vaccination rates.

I can read opposing established facts all day long. Just commenting on my established circle of people. 

Really hoping there aren't long term detrimental side effects to this treatment of theirs. Granting the pharmaceuticals immunity as they have is a big concern some of you should have.

Uh no, the context in the article from the New Mexico news site was clearly in reference to its use here, where parasitic infections are very low, and ivermectin use in humans domestically is dwarfed by its use in livestock. 

The article you quoted is clearly referring to its use globally, and specifically third world countries where parasites thrive in areas without access to potable water. In fact, the reason immunologists speculate that covid ivermectin studies in those areas tend to show quicker recovery in some patients is thought to be due to clearing a nematode coinfection rather than stopping viral replication of sars-cov2. This is likely why ivermectin repeatedly falls on its face in studies in more developed nations.

Why don't you explain to my buddy Simon why he felt better from his Covid infection two hours after taking Ivermectin that it was all in his head as your studies say that didn't happen.  You should also explain that to the doctor who prescribed it to him because your research shows that it didn't work.
