Vaccine Misinformation

Free country, free choice, but if I start experiencing symptoms of the coco, first call to my doctor is to get paxlovid.

roqqet: You guys are so biased you ignore all new information

Scientific Community: Ever single trial run shows that ivermectin has no positive effect against COVID

roqqet: It's a conspiracy! Findings are being suppressed! Besides, scientific studies aren't really needed.

[Hards Alumni]

you're missing the point once again here rock and all you're doing is rousing your crowd.  you guys have such a bias that it works detrimentally against ALL new information coming.  some of this information could actually prove to benefit many, possibly even save their lives.  if that's how you guys operate, God help us all.

  does it work for everyone? probably not, but does the vaccine(s) double, triple vax work for all?  did they willfully report all the side effects of the vaccines?

  some of these other drugs have been shot down before they were even given a chance.  the doctors who think outside the box found that when given in combinations with other adjuncts(vitamins, zinc, z-pak, etc) at varying levels in patients with differing viral loads have benefited.  isn't this a better potential scenario opposed to those that have unnecessarily suffered, taken up hospital beds and/or died?  that's a question that has not allowed to be answered because the advocates have controlled the narrative.  how they sleep at night escapes me.  you short minded fools continue to refer to ivermectin as "horse dewormer"?  you do realize there are treatment guidelines, indications and dosage guidelines for humans, right?  the original purpose of acetylsalicylic acid was pain relief, fever reducer and anti-inflammatory.  a very useful "side effect" became evident-blood thinning

1st:  Yes, you're right, WE'RE the ones with the bias.
2nd: All Information Matters... shocking.
3rd: This hokum has been studied at length and there is no value to it. 

I'm sorry you've tied your personality to a bunch of quacks, but it's probably time to accept that you've been misled.  No one here need you to apologize, but for the love of God, just stop defending it.

Use of Paxlovid, the oral antiviral developed by Pfizer (NYSE:PFE), has increased 315% over the past four weeks, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services announced on Tuesday.

According to a senior health official, nearly 115,000 Paxlovid courses were dispensed during the first week of May. A total of 668,954 courses out of over two million doses ordered by pharmacies were administered, Reuters reported.

The department continues to increase the accessibility to the drug after the FDA authorized it in December for high-risk adults with COVID-19 who are more susceptible to the severe form of the disease .

"In recent weeks we've gone from 20,000 sites with Paxlovid to approximately 35,000 and we'll keep working to increase availability," the official told reports.

Hasn't most the research said ivermectin with other drugs can be effective? Which begs the question of whether it would be just as effective without the ivermectin. But doesn't that change your math?

With all due respect Rocket, this is false. They have been extensively, and rigorously tested. They just show no efficacy.

Most of the doctors that were peddling these "cures" did so for financial purposes. They did a 5 minute phone/zoom screen, zero tests to even confirm COVID, and prescribed them a cocktail. Charged them a good chunk of cash for the phone/zoom screen and made a small fortune.

Many of them were scam artists. There were other doctors that legitimately bought into the hoopla and were trying to help their patients, but were also just victims of a scam.

I'd love for them to have worked. And in the very very early days there were some suggestions they could work, but actual trials quickly showed that wasn't the case. It is time that people put this to rest, it is now just likely to harm people.

Here's my bias. When I walked into one of the 300+ COVID patient rooms I've been in, I saw lots of Remdesivir and Dexamethasone. No Ivermectin. My "bias" is that I'm working with hospitalists, pharmacists and pulmonologists who know way more about then I do. So I trust them. And then they have to deal with family members who want all of these other treatments which don't work. It takes precious time to deal with all of it.

I see I have triggered you.  Again, they should revoke your license for your medical quack advice you continue to espouse.

So we're supposed to believe a doctor like you and others who have made studying these things their lives' work when we could be believing interwebs guys who use ALM in their screen names, Fox News "talent," Aaron Rodgers and Alex Jones? What a ridiculous take.

Yet another anti-vax talking point debunked.

From the NYT's David Leonhardt:

One of the defining characteristics of the pandemic's early stages was its disproportionate toll on Black and Latino Americans.

But these large racial gaps in vaccination have not continued — and as a result, neither have the gaps in Covid death rates.

Instead, Covid's racial gaps have narrowed and, more recently, even flipped. Over the past year, the Covid death rate for white Americans has been 14 percent higher than the rate for Black Americans and 72 percent higher than the Latino rate, according to the latest C.D.C. data.

The successful part of the story is the rapid increase in vaccination among Black and Latino Americans since last year. Today, the vaccination rate for both groups is slightly higher than it is for white Americans, according to the Kaiser Family Foundation's surveys. That has happened thanks to intense outreach efforts by medical workers, community organizers and others.

The narrowing of Covid's gaps does involve some bad news: The share of white Americans who have received a Covid vaccine shot has barely budged since last summer.

The main culprit is politics. Only about 60 percent of Republican adults are vaccinated, compared with about 75 percent of independents and more than 90 percent of Democrats, according to Kaiser. And Republicans are both disproportionately white and older. Together, these facts help explain why the white death rate has recently been higher than the Asian, Black or Latino rate.

In heavily conservative, white communities, leaders have not done as good a job explaining the vaccine's benefits — and Covid's risks — as leaders in Black and Latino communities. Instead, many conservative media figures, politicians, clergy members and others have amplified false or misleading information about the vaccines. Millions of Americans, in turn, have chosen not to receive a lifesaving shot. Some have paid with their lives.

Ivermectin doesn't lower hospitalization or death risk from COVID, study finds

https://seekingalpha.com/news/3848165-ivermectin-doesnt-lower-hospitalization-or-death-risk-from-covid-study-says?mailingid=28042808&messageid=2900&serial=28042808.2110&utm_campaign=rta-stock-news&utm_content=link-1&utm_medium=email&utm_source=seeking_alpha&utm_term=28042808.2110

A placebo-controlled study of nearly 1600 individuals found that the antiparasitic medicine ivermectin does not lower the incidence of hospitalization or death from COVID-19.

The results, published on medRxiv and yet to be peer reviewed, found that ivermectin taken for three days led to a shortening of symptoms of less than one day.

About half of the participants had received at least two COVID vaccine doses.

Researchers noted that subgroup analyses and the data suggest examining ivermectin in a higher dose and for a longer duration.

Ivermectin is not authorized or approved by the U.S. FDA as a COVID treatment.

Authorized or approved COVID treatments include Pfizer's (NYSE:PFE) Paxlovid, Merck's (NYSE:MRK) Lagevrio (molnupiravir), Gilead Sciences' (NASDAQ:GILD) Veklury (remdesivir), Eli Lilly's (NYSE:LLY) bebtelovimab, and AstraZeneca's (AZN) Evusheld.

A study of 3.5K patients published in late March in the New England Journal of Medicine also found that ivermectin didn't lower hospitalization risk.

Put this under the "Well, duh!" file.
