Your article is appreciated, but like most other "speaking out" articles, sadly it avoids discussing the most important topic: the gold-standard randomized clinical trial mortality results for mRNA vaccines. What were the mortality results in the Pfizer and Moderna clinical trials totaling >70000 adults, conducted in late 2020 - early 2021 at peak vaccine effectiveness, by the companies themselves?
COVID deaths: 2 vaccine vs. 5 placebo
non-COVID deaths: 29 vaccine vs. 25 placebo
Overall: 4 excess non-COVID deaths for every 3 less COVID deaths, even at the height of the pandemic
Note: if anyone says "it's not statistically significant" they are obviously sidestepping the entire point. The clinical trial mortality results for mRNA vaccines are indisputably ABYSMAL. Pretend that those results were for ivermectin, would the establishment say ivermectin is safe, effective, and livesaving?
So what were the mortality results for ivermectin in the 18 published randomized clinical trials totaling >7000 COVID patients, conducted from 2020-2022?
Overall mortality: 29% DECREASED with ivermectin (raw totals were 67 deaths in ivermectin groups vs. 102 deaths in control groups, out of about ~3600 each)
Note on ivermectin trials: almost all large trials delayed ivermectin until 5-7 days after symptoms started, most only gave ivermectin for 3 days, and gave ivermectin in isolation outside of the protocols that almost all ivermectin proponents use. In contrast, the extremely successful clinical trial of Paxlovid (0 deaths Paxlovid vs. 13 deaths placebo) began Paxlovid an average of 3 days after symptoms started, gave Paxlovid for 5 days twice a day, and Paxlovid itself is a COMBINATION drug.
Thanks Dr. Leap. You hit the nail on the head. We need to remember that we did the best we could with what we knew and what we had. Not an easy proposition when working in a cloud of fear, politics, misinformation and culture wars. In times of chaos and uncertainty, who could ever doubt the power of kindness?
