When you say "worked in" what do you mean?

You hearing stories from clinicians on line in the cafeteria isn't the same as you providing direct patient care or otherwise being trained as a health care provider, stop throwing shade.

Did you really say to “stop throwing shade” like a teenage girl?

 

[Orangeslice13]

Less than the number that would without safe, effective medications like ivermectin, which treats strongyloidiasis and other nasty parasitic infections.

Where are you on the monoclonal treatment plans?

Where are you on the monoclonal treatment plans?

Very effective for those who meet criteria. I actually ordered one today.

I little man who squirts water. Like a bidet. But it's a man.

So a peeing midget? Wait, that’s not PC is it? A urinating midget?

What criteria would eliminate its use in someone Covid positive?

Not the doc, but my wife had the bamlanivimab infusion around Christmas and I believe it helped save her life.
She has multiple comorbidities and was on home oxygen for a couple of months, but she's doing well today.

I’m glad she’s doing well.
I’ve read that a lot of Drs like this treatment but others not so much. Florida is using it large scale. I believe that all options should be available and tested including the deworming meds. I’m just trying to understand why this isn’t getting the push that the other things do.
For the record my Dr has said that if my wife or I who are fully vaccinated do have a breakthrough infection that monoclonal will be the direction we go.

What do you think drives “the criteria”? It’s not cheap is there any cost control going on here or do you see the criteria as sound as is? Why not just let it rip on anybody that shows symptoms?

Like Florida appears to be doing

Exactly. Texas is upping their game but still not to Florida’s level yet.

So what are we going to call the South African variant?New COVID variant detected in South Africa, most mutated variant so far

Zeta variant (for Zulu)

If this was entire drama was all about health, they would leave no stone unturned and have every reasonable option on the table.

Wisconsin physicians today gathered virtually to share a message with Sen. Ron Johnson: "Please stop pushing Ivermectin as a cure for COVID-19, and stop discouraging trust in the safe, effective vaccine that actually prevents COVID-19."

This is not true and the reason many don’t take the vaccine. The vaccine does nothing to prevent the virus, it boosts the body’s ability to recognize and fight the virus thus reducing the negative impact of the virus. Had the vaccine been promoted as a remedy to reduce the virility by 1/3, 1/2 or whatever many would have been much less skeptical about it. And the other thing, don’t tell me it’s free, it’s costing billions that ultimately you and I will have to pay.

One quick note, for the MENSA crowd that relies on mass-media propaganda for their knowledge of medications:

Google "ivermectin" and "Nobel prize."

Your vilified and ridiculed "horse dewormer" is an extremely safe medication used for decades around the world to treat and prevent life-threatening parasitic infections in humans, especially in tropical and sub-tropical climates. It is even administered regularly en masse in certain areas of the world where advanced testing is not economically feasible or possible. It prevents hundreds of thousands (or more) of deaths, cases of blindness, and other morbidities annually.

It is also used regularly in the U.S., and it is prescribed to children with parasitic infections and infestations without fear of toxicity.

P.S. Ivermectin has well-established antiviral activity and has shown promise in the treatment of multiple viral infections, including SARS-CoV-2.

the irony of our "don't listen to the stoopid Interwebs" crowd repeating the stoopid Interweb memes as true

Adolescent with significant risk factor(s) for progression to severe illness.

I am not privy to the exact statistics used in the determination of criteria, but they are primarily targeting those at significant risk for progression to serious illness.

I am sure that's correct. I think you would also agree you shouldn't go buy the freaking pills for horses and take that yourself. Which is what I believe the CDC and others are asking Americans to stop doing.
