Bit disturbing that Dr. Kory and his Covid Critical Care Alliance have been silenced by Twitter....
CCCA is still posting on twitter, and I still see Kory vids on there, they've not been silenced but if they share info based on poor information which can possibly do more harm than good, then threads may get pulled.
I'm not against IVM, not until we've seen a large scale trial, that's been well run, but equally, it's a tough sell to argue for it when vaccines clearly work, will get better, and there's LOADS of them.
But, all of this has been covered above:
If people recommend a drug that is not approved it may get pulled (it's not approved by WHO and EMA, and they really don't want more people dying)
It's not had large scale trials, that have been well ran (without bias and with placebo), and showed much of a benefit, over the alternatives
Long term effects are not known, when at the doses required, when combined with covid
Most of the "trials" had been done on old variants, which are basically out of date, and in areas not exactly known for being "truthful"
Vaccines are proven to work, see Israel, Wales, England, anywhere (they were designed based on old, and they work on the new, and will get better)
New UK hospital admissions (based on Delta variant, which is the worst we have)
67% unvaccinated
23% one vaccination
2% two vaccinations, which was always the plan (bear in mind this 2% contains > 90% of the risk)
8% no vaccination data known
Why would vaxers (~90% uptake of adults in the UK) need to take ivermectin? They have a vaccine (there's about 20), and vaccines will get adapted to be better?
Or are you just pushing this for the anti-vaxers to take?
Or are you advising to take both?
Or are you saying take IVM instead of a vaccine?
Seems to me like there are some individuals profiteering on unknowns, and some people like to watch and read about it. Bret arguing against lockdowns or vaccines at the same time hurts any credibility he has, as these are not even up for debate.
Why doesn't Bret, Kory and whoever start a go fund me page for some money for an IVM trail, and then get it trialled large scale, by someone reputable in a country with a good record?
They're trying to re-invent the wheel, when we already have 20 types of wheel.
Was the same last year with HCQ (which we now know doesn't really work), except that got more blowback/ attention as there were no ready vaccines, now we have vaccines there's little interest in reinventing the wheel as we've got a good direction to go in. People won't argue against something if the data is bad, but equally, they shouldn't have to as the argument "for" it, is based on bad data too.
