This will be the final time I interact with you on this topic.


Despite me agreeing to disagree and politely part ways with you recently, you continue to respond to my posts. Do I really irritate you that much that you can't simply let it go?

Back to the subject at hand - it is my understanding that over its 40+ year history, Ivermectin has been administered something like 4 billion times, and a total of three people have died when taking Ivermectin as prescribed. I believe all three had a genetic disorder which predisposed them to complications from use of the drug. The WHO lists Ivermectin as one of the most essential drugs, and its record also makes it one of the safest. Aside from people who have the rare genetic disorder that would make it dangerous to take, there are no known warnings for Ivermectin. Regardless of whether you think it is effective in treating COVID-19 (the data is mounting to strongly support the idea that it is), you cannot argue with the safety of Ivermectin. There is virtually no down side. That is what is infuriating - other countries are using this drug with huge success, but it is being completely downplayed in the United States, which is driving some desperate people to use veterinarian-grade Ivermectin, which IS dangerous. You have to begin to ask why is such a safe drug is not receiving much more attention and being researched as potentially helping to end this pandemic. Shouldn't we all want that, regardless of what therapies prove most effective? Why must mRNA shots be the only way?

Contrast Ivermectin's long history of safety with the current menu of COVID shots, and there is no comparison. I'm not sure how many deaths you will admit have occurred worldwide as a result of vaccines, but the answer is much, much more than 3 people. And that is not even taking into consideration the innumerable cases of complications such as Bell's palsy, Guillain-Barre syndrome, myocarditis, etc.

I realize I will not change your mind, and that has never been my intention. But I have seen the accounts of too many people who have suffered greatly due to the COVID shots, and many of them moved me to tears. My heart breaks for these people, because the have almost universally been silenced and/or rejected, told by doctors who are supposed to help them that their issues are "in their head" or that they will have to seek treatment elsewhere. It is evil, and mainstream news sources are complicit in squashing these stories. I don't care what anyone else decides with regard to receiving a COVID vaccine - I wholeheartedly believe it should remain a personal decision and I would never try to convince someone else what is best for them.
However, the fact that injuries are not being given the concern they should receive only causes distrust in the healthcare community. There are people who need to be affirmed and receive care and compensation for their suffering, and I refuse to stay silent about it.
