Just posting to note the failure of ivermectin to prevent covid/speed recovery twice in my (and my mother’s) experience.
My mother and I both got prescriptions for ivermectin in 2021. She took the prophylactic dose regularly, as prescribed. I took it two or three times but then stopped because 1) I wasn’t super worried about getting covid and 2) I didn’t like taking this pharmaceutical in such high doses, regularly. By the fall, the recommendations were changing to even higher preventative/treatment doses because apparently it wasn’t working as well as before. Well, despite following the ivermectin protocol, my mother contracted covid in November and became very very ill. I was caring for her, and I took a double dose of ivermectin every day for three days, per instructions. Didn’t help me either. I also came down with covid and was basically in bed for two weeks. While ill, we both took double dose ivm daily (I can’t tell you what the dosage was, I’ve forgotten, but whatever the covid 19 critical care docs were recommending). I’m convinced it did nothing. We were both very very ill and fatigued for weeks afterwards.
Fast forward to now, my mother has contracted covid again. Again, despite taking a “preventative” dose of ivermectin. I’m sure I will also come down with covid, being around her all day. However this time, I haven’t bothered to take ivermectin. It appears to have done nothing to prevent or treat covid. Just my experience.
The one drug I will take for covid is fluvoxamine — despite serious reservations about taking an SSRI, I got to the point where I was having some difficulty breathing and though I might end up in the hospital, I was very scared, so I started taking it. Within a day, symptoms began to lessen. Again, just my experience.
The whole thing has made me a bit wary of the ivermectin pushers. They’re so confident it helps but… it didn’t seem to do anything for me or my mother.
