Most of you know I’ve been covering the actual science on COVID since December of 2019 with daily coverage starting January 14, 2020. My goal was to ensure my audience was informed of the latest on the virus so they survive. That goal hasn’t changed.

Just as we had in December of 2019, we still have politicians, activists and the media either straight-up lying to you, or at the very least, peddling unverified information that isn’t true. As I’ve always said, the biggest problem with the media isn’t that they are sinister, it’s that they are lazy.

For 15+ years I’ve covered the news media getting scientific stories and studies wrong. Sometimes this was to push a narrative. Other times it was simply that they didn’t understand the study’s conclusions or they went for the ‘if it bleeds, it leads’ strategy for clickbait.

Here’s a great example of what I mean:

Cell Phones & Cancer: Two Weeks, Two Studies, Two Different Conclusions

I wrote that article in May 2016. Nothing has changed.

Cloth and surgical masks don’t work.

Hydroxychloroquine stack works.

Ivermectin works.

The science is settled.

That hasn’t stopped politicians, public officials, activists and the media from lying to you.

Joe Rogan got COVID and posted this video letting everyone know he’s ok, and what he did to fight the virus:

Maybe a little overkill but why take a risk?

The good news is that he feels great. The story should be ‘Joe Rogan gets COVID, feels great after treatment.’ That isn’t the story though. He must be sacrificed to the mask God Karen for the Cult of Mask. We must have his blood!

Enter Stuart Varney on Fox Business:

Ok, Dr. Bob Lahita now has no credibility to discuss this pandemic. None.

Dr. Lahita downplaying Ivermectin as a drug for cattle shows he isn’t in the loop about Ivermectin research over the past several years, even before the pandemic.

The NIH website has this tidbit on it:

Review of the Emerging Evidence Demonstrating the Efficacy of Ivermectin in the Prophylaxis and Treatment of COVID-19

Recently, has emerged that the oral antiparasitic ivermectin exhibits numerous antiviral and anti-inflammatory mechanisms with trial results reporting significant outcome .

Further down the line:

Conclusions:
Meta-analyses based on 18 randomized controlled treatment trials of ivermectin in COVID-19 have found large, statistically significant reductions in mortality, time to clinical recovery, and time to viral clearance. Furthermore, results from numerous controlled prophylaxis trials report significantly reduced risks of contracting COVID-19 with the regular use of ivermectin. Finally, the many examples of ivermectin distribution campaigns leading to rapid population-wide decreases in morbidity and mortality indicate that an oral agent effective in all phases of COVID-19 has been identified.

Wow! Fauci’s NIH has research on their showing ivermectin works against COVID. Oh, the scandal!

COVID isn’t the first virus ivermectin has been studied to use as a treatment.

Also in the NIH article:

Since 2012, a growing number of cellular studies have demonstrated that ivermectin has antiviral properties against an increasing number of RNA viruses, including influenza, Zika, HIV, Dengue, and most importantly, SARS-CoV-2.9–17 Insights into the mechanisms of action by which ivermectin both interferes with the entrance and replication of SARS-CoV-2 within human cells are mounting.

We’ve been studying ivermectin to treat the flu, Zika, HIV Dengue Fever, etc. since 2012. The idea that using ivermectin to treat a virus is, to quote Dr. Bob Lahita, “ridiculous” is … well … ridiculous. Ivermectin is also approved for use in humans for parasitic worms and diseases and has been established as safe for humans in the right dosage. He’s not only wrong, but he’s also, at least, 9 years behind the science.

So, how does ivermectin work against certain viruses, like COVID?

This is from Drugs.com:

How is Ivermectin thought to work on COVID-19?

  • For the SARS-CoV-2 virus to make you sick, it has to first infect your cells.

  • Then while inside the cell, the virus makes heaps of copies of itself, so it can spread around your .

  • The virus also has ways of reducing the way your body fights the infection.

  • During the infection of the cell, some viral proteins go into the cell nucleus, and from here they can decrease the body’s ability to fight the virus, which means the infection can get worse.

  • To get into the nucleus the viral proteins need to bind a cargo transporter which lets them in.

  • Ivermectin can block the cargo transporter, so the viral proteins can’t get into the nucleus. This is how the scientists believe Ivermectin works against SARS-CoV-2 virus.

  • By taking Ivermectin, it means the body can fight the infection like normal, because its antiviral response hasn’t been reduced by the viral proteins.

Keep in , that’s Drugs.com, not some guy named Kyle with a blog. The article goes on to cite several studies where ivermectin saves fighting COVID.

Here’s what the research shows:

This Stuart Varney segment reminded me of when Neil Cavuto, also of Fox Business, LIED to his audience about Hydroxychloroquine. Falsely claiming ‘you will die‘ if you took it. The Stuart Varney segment may not be as unhinged as the Cavuto nonsense but it was equally inaccurate. HCQ, like all medications, isn’t perfect and some patients shouldn’t take it depending on other health issues. Again, like every other medication on the planet. HCQ has only claimed the lives of 8 people from overdosing since the 1950s. It’s a safe drug as long as you don’t have any health issues that would suffer from taking it.

Here’s the data on HCQ:

 

You have to ask why everywhere else in the world shows overwhelmingly positive results with HCQ but we don’t. Of course, the answer is most studies done in North America only use HCQ by itself in the late stages of COVID. In those circumstances, it’s only about 21% effective. For reference, the golden child, and very expensive, Remdesivir is only about 22% effective but is universally praised by the media, politicians, and community. Of course, Remdesivir’s maker, Gilead, has a lot of people in their pockets and was responsible for a lot of anti-HCQ propaganda. When I took the HCQ stack, my symptoms disappeared in 2 hours. Countless others have similar stories. Did it save my life? Probably not. It did make my recovery faster.

With the constant droning on about hospitalizations overwhelming communities, should we be focusing on inexpensive and effective treatments that keep people out of the hospital?

Just because a lab shows a result, doesn’t mean it works in the real world. However, we know HCQ worked in the real world because we had thousands of doctors treated COVID patients daily attest to how well HCQ worked. The political class in the US chose to ignore those medical professionals, with more experience treating COVID than our own doctors, and instead ostracized them as quacks. At a time when we had nothing else, taking HCQ with azithromycin and zinc would have saved countless lives. The media, activists, politicians, and ill-informed public health officials needlessly let people die.

Are there better options than HCQ now? Yes. Ivermectin is one of them. Yet the media and ‘doctors’ who are way out of their depths are smearing it again in the middle of a surge in Delta variant COVID. They are repeating their mistakes and people will die because of their hubris.

 

 

Fake Hate: Server faked “racist receipt” outrage Texas

by | Jul 24, 2018 | Blog, Fake Hate, Fake News

A Facebook post documenting racial abuse that a Saltgrass Steak House server was subjected to over the weekend drew thousands of responses condemning comments of unidentified patrons who called the Odessan a “terrorist” as they refused to tip him.

, a 20-year-old Odessan working at the restaurant as he prepares to attend college in Dallas later this year, posted an image of a dinner receipt on Sunday along with a response to the abuse the night before. The diners he had served circled his name, which means “friend” in Arabic, and wrote “We don’t Tip Terrorist.” They left no tip on the than $108 bill.

“… At the moment I didn’t know to think nor what to say, I was sick to my stomach,” wrote Cavil, who is black.” I share this because I want to understand that this racism, and this hatred still exists. Although, this is nothing new, it is still something that will test your faith. All day I’ve had to remind myself that Jesus died for these people too. I have decided to let this encourage me, and fuel me to change the world the only way I know how…”

Saltgrass Steak House restaurant banned the customer and people donated over $1000 to Cavil for some reason. I’m really not sure why we keep doing this considering nearly all of these stories end up being hoaxes. Millennials should stop donating to these frauds so they can actually save up to buy a house.

The waiter, Khalil Cavil, 20, admitted he wrote the racist note himself in a Monday interview with the Odessa American, where he apologized to a reporter “because I did lie to .”

“I did write it,” Cavil said, refusing to explain why. “I don’t have an explanation. I made a mistake. is no excuse for what I did.”

Apparently, he’s returning ‘most’ of the money. Whatever that means.

As for the restaurant not investigating before acting like imbeciles …

“After further investigation, we have learned that our employee fabricated the entire ,” Terry Turney, COO of Saltgrass Steak House, told the Odessa American in a statement. “The customer has been contacted and invited back to our restaurant to dine on . Racism of any form is intolerable, and we will always act swiftly should it occur in any of our establishments.

“Falsely accusing someone of racism is equaling disturbing,” Turney said.

So let’s examine this, shall we?

Fake hate stories like this have been common for 4 now. I’m not aware of a ‘restaurant receipt’ story like this actually being true in recent history. Given that hundreds of these fake hate stories have been around for years, the restaurant and public should have been automatically skeptical. Yet they never are. The bigger disappointment is the original media outlet who knew these stories are usually fake, or should have known, falling for the clickbait nonsense and publishing it investigating. After all, the restaurant had the customer’s info to ban them and then reach out to invite them back. Reaching out to them should have been the first thing they did.

At least they fired Cavil for this. I hope his college finds out about it and revokes his admissions if applicable.
