I just sold a boat to an 80 year old gentleman. His wife gave it a pretty good going over before she consented to the purchase. 4 weeks ago they pulled her off the vent, they gave her no hope and then gave her ivermectin at the hospital. She wanted to know how to make the spot lock work.

Whoa!!!... I'd steer clear of wives, girlfriends, moms, daughters, sisters and other loved ones... Dan

That is the main question I have. With treatments available why is our main process just to let it run the course and use a ventilator if necessary? That makes zero sense to me

The drug, by itself is completely safe and well tolerated....but using it for covid renders it poison? Y'all use your brain!

I don’t eat dog food, pellets, chicken scratch or hay so I won’t take drugs intended for farm animals. Now I did use DSMO on my ankles during my football career. That’s some healing medicine but I rubbed it on I didn’t ingest it.

My neighbor has covid, tested positive Friday and he has a prescription from the hospital for ivermectin. They do have a form medicine called stromectal which is for humans and is ivermectin.

It's not just intended for animals coach....used the world over for several parasites by man

I may have missed that its poison. Its not. It can be taken weeks or months before encountering Covid and it should still work. For animals the treatment regiment is once and retreatment from 3 to 12 months. I'm assuming the drug stays in your system long enough for you to take it long before you encounter Covid.

What is being missed is that its not a replacement for any of the other safeguards or treatments. Some of the claims I've heard here lately, especially the one where someone was taken off a respirator and given no chance to live and then was given it I don't believe.
The problem being most of the disbelievers of the vaccine are the main body of believer in Ivermectin.

Just get the vaccine and be done with it...

No

I received it. I also spent nine days in the hospital starting a week after I got it. Covid and Covid pneumonia. Still on oxygen as well.

Not quite that simple. I got the vaccine in March and got Covid in July. The vaccine may be the only thing that kept me from pushing up daisies. If you have a weakened immune system, the vaccine helps, but never think it will keep you from getting Covid.

Can I get the booster if I haven’t had the other shots?

The vaccine does exactly what kingwood said...it lessens the effects, such as dying, from covid. That's good enough for me. The rest of you people can ignore that fact, complain about your rights, claim you are immune or some such bs...while the unvaccinated get sick and perhaps die. Hey it's your call...but please stop bothering the rest of us with your crazy theories or anecdotal tales...it may make you feel better but it can become annoying.

Yeah I know there is an ignore function...it's called my brain...:) I should probably exercise that function more around here...starting now.
