Pallister's evasion

[bucket]

I am still intrigued by his comment on thanking those involved for making it rain .... 🧐.

Yup, thought it was pretty phucking strange considering he was supposed to be answering a question about ivermectin..

He could have just said ....He wouldn't recommend the use of ivermectin as he knows nothing and then deferred to medical people...

But a Trudeau answer made him look stupid.

I had thought of a video being doctored too, but the Virden newspaper published a follow-up article:

FDA has not approved ivermectin for use in treating or preventing COVID-19 in humans. Ivermectin tablets are approved at very specific doses for some parasitic worms, and there are topical (on the skin) formulations for head lice and skin conditions like rosacea. Ivermectin is not an anti-viral (a drug for treating viruses).
Taking large doses of this drug is dangerous and can cause serious harm.
If you have a prescription for ivermectin for an FDA-approved use, get it from a legitimate source and take it exactly as prescribed.
Never use medications intended for animals on yourself. Ivermectin preparations for animals are very different from those approved for humans.

KEY FINDINGS•The studies evaluating ivermectin treatment are not high enough quality to properly decide if ivermectin is useful or not. Most studies did not clearly describe the effect of the other medications given to patients or what other factors might influence their findings (“confounding”), did not have an adequate comparator group to assess if there was a difference in patients given ivermectin, or were too small to be sure that any effect of ivermectin seen was real. •With respect to ivermectin's ability to prevent infection with COVID-19, four low quality studies showed that ivermectin may reduce the risk of COVID-19 infection; however, there were several confounding factors and we don’t know what else the study participants were doing that might have influenced their risk of infection. More studies are needed to show if ivermectin can be used to prevent infection.•With respect to ivermectin's ability to treat people with COVID-19, seven studies that had a control group (ie. a group of participants that did not receive ivermectin) reported the effect of ivermectin on death from COVID-19. Four showed that deaths from COVID-19 went down, while three showed that deaths from COVID-19 were not affected. All seven studies were small and were of low or very low quality, so we can’t be sure that their findings were real. More studies are needed to show if ivermectin can be used to treat COVID-19. •The available data on ivermectin purchasing in Alberta doesn’t clearly show us if it is being used for purposes other than parasitic infections (ie. for COVID-19

ivermectin is used in the treatment of scabies for people and other issues....

Many nations are using Ivermectin prophylactically, with success. That is the truth and he could have said that if he speaks the truth. But for some reason today’s politicians have a tough time with that little detail.

[sumdumguy]

Ivermectin has been used extensively for four decades for various ailments. Today many nations have adopted its utility for Covid prophylaxis, but not N. America. Why is it not even considered? That is the question that no politician will answer. Pallister no different than the rest.

Im sure we would hear the wailing 😠from all the antivaxers and the conspiracy kooks if they lined up everyone and gave you a squirt of ivermectin on your back just like we did the cattle herd.

A good story on the media blackout on Ivermectin.

If many of these deaths could have been prevented with the use of this treatment (and others) then the regulators should face criminal charges. It's appalling that things should have come to this.
