Brilliant piece. This medical layman fails to comprehend how Ivermectin saved enough millions of lives to win the Nobel Peace Prize then later got demonized as 'horse paste' and unfit for human consumption by America's FDA. Had Ivermectin (and other successful early approaches) been employed early on, millions of lives might have been saved around the world - this, months before the first so-called 'vaccine' ever got injected into the first arm.

'Mass murder', on the part of those who censored life-saving treatments? The shoe fits.

C'mon, legal profession... Get off your duffs. there HAS to be a class action suit somewhere in this.

I don’t know how this could be pulled off, but I would love to see a study/paper submitted to peer-reviewed journals with Paxlovid substituted for ivermectin, and when the paper is accepted, the authors reveal that the drug tested was actually ivermectin, and the journal would be forced to proceed with publishing what they had already accepted lest their bias be revealed.

Perhaps Peter Boghossian, James Lindsay, and Helen Pluckrose can give some pointers on how to submit hoax papers—although it’s probably a lot easier to get away with in the social sciences ;-) (https://www.nytimes.com/2018/10/04/arts/academic-journals-hoax.html)

I got a little giddy when I discovered you were discussing your “American Journal of Therapeutics” paper. If you take a look at the footnotes (https://margaretannaalice.substack.com/p/letter-to-a-scientifically-minded#footnote-1) of my article on the ivermectin disinformation campaign (https://margaretannaalice.substack.com/p/letter-to-a-scientifically-minded), you will find that is the ninth bullet in my list of papers demonstrating ivermectin’s efficacy.

It made me a bit misty-eyed to realize I published that on October 19, 2021—before I knew who either you or Tess were. And now here we are nearly a year later, and I not only consider you two of the most courageous people in the world but also cherished collaborators and friends 🙌

P.S. I hope you’ve upgraded from a bat by now 😂

You are still saving lives every day Dr. Kory. Hubby and I (in our 70’s). been on ivermectin (and other recommended nutraceuticals) since first I saw you speak and read your first piece way back when - initially twice a week and now once a week. When my daughter and future son-in-law wound up with Covid they took it also and within two days they were better. So remember... you ARE saving lives no matter how hopeless and corrupt the so-called medical system is. We are grateful and thank you❤️

Whoever has the most cash calls the tune, and when that "cash" amounts to multi-billions the tunes are very bad music indeed.

Dr. Kory, I’m new to your substack, so perhaps my request already exists, but I’m really interested in the effects of ivermectin on cancer in general and cancerous tumors. I recently took ivermectin for an unknown infection and it cleared within a day. I don’t know what it was because I refuse to go see a doctor because I’m afraid that they will purposely steer me in the wrong direction (fully admit to tinfoil hat!! 😂😂) but I haven’t been sick in any way in 17 years, and ivermectin helped me immediately.

Additionally, my mother is 78 in very good health, but she got the shot and then had a heart attack. Luckily, she came out of it ok, but that was a scare I told her, “mother, you were fine and this poison somehow made you worse than you were.” She passed me off as crazy, then my entire family shunned me for not getting the shot. They bought into the narrative to not allow “the unclean” to come into their homes for the holidays. I was sad because time with my family was always so much fun! We share wonderful food, drink wine, play games, yet this time I wax excluded. I also told my employer (a huge billion dollar conglomerate) that I would resign before I relented to a forced shot. Thankfully, a day before their strong arm forced it upon the 1,000’s that work for them, the Supreme Court decision came out. I’m one of the lucky ones. I held steadfast to my anti COVID vax stance and simply by chance it seems, I was allowed to keep my job.

You have laid out the case for lawyers to sue on behalf of all the needless covid deaths. This is the biggest scandal in the history of our world...greater than anything else that has ever gone down. These editors and those that bribed them need to be held accountable. There is a paper trail and phone logs that will prove it in discovery.

You Dr. Kory and Tess Laurie and many others who spoke out at the risk of your lives, are our modern day Marvel Super Heroes. I prayed for your safety all of last year feeling you were in danger and I will continue to do so just in case.

Dr. Kory I can only imagine how frustrating it must be to see corruption take innocent lives from a doctors perspective. I listened early on to the FLCCC and Dr. Lawrie. At the time I was able to get a prescription for IVM and for a year was able to get it from Walgreens. That stopped about the time your dates appear from this article with respect to the "journals" AKA money whores. I used IVM as did 2 of my 4 children (adults told to read the evidence for themselves). It worked immediately to cure us of Sars CV2. I now keep a supply just in case the horrible decision to vaccinate during a pandemic comes back to harm us. Keep going you will get the support you need. No vaccinations in my family, thanks to you, Brett Weinstein, and Dr. Malone.

The journals aren't the problem. They're a problem, but just a symptom of much deeper rot. We like to whine about journals, and the broader press, and twit, and WEF, and Bill, and joe, but usually ignore the real problem -- those malefactors are powerless without a lot of willing accomplices.

The readers of these journals are supposed to be experts. Highly trained, well informed, intelligent -- the best of the best. We rely on them to make life and death decisions for us. Either they are aware of the corruption and lies, or they're not as smart as they claim to be. Both answers deeply undermine public expectations and jeopardize the future of our society.

The solution is to remove the reverence we have given to the medical guilds, and recognize that they're just mechanics we hire to do an occasional job. They need to be supervised like any other employee, or we can expect poor results. We allowed them to control our lives. That's the most important lesson from this disaster -- never allow anyone to control us.

We have met the enemy, and it is us.

Glad you are revealing how the censorship worked. Not glad it worked.

Takeaway from all of the COVIDcrisis: Money trumps Humanity every time. This is hard to believe for any who believe in Truth and in Science (not the B.S., money driven science, but the reproducible, documented evidence based science). The divergence that has happened (between Real Science and the "fake science" of money), and continues to happen, is hard to accept by those who lived and believed otherwise.

That is so bizarre! We are living in the twilight zone.

Thanks Dr. Kory for the clarification with famotidine, and clearing up some muddy waters .
