At the height of the pandemic in 2020, Dr. Janet Woodcock, then head of the FDA’s drug evaluation division, was appointed therapeutics lead for Operation Warp Speed to help fast-track Covid-19 vaccines and treatments.

At the time, ivermectin had shown significant antiviral potential in lab studies and was being used empirically in countries like Peru and Honduras. It was safe, cheap, already approved for treating parasites—and generating cautious hope as a potential Covid-19 treatment.  (See link for article)

SUMMARY:

• Woodcock was all in on ivermectin until she became acting commissioner for the FDA, then 7 months into her new role the infamous, ‘You are not a horse, You are not a cow. Seriously, y’all. Stop it,’  FDA tweet came out, along with a special warning that “you should not use ivermectin to treat or prevent COVID-19.” The FDA’s statement included words and phrases such as “serious harm,” “hospitalized,” “dangerous,” “very dangerous,” “seizures,” “coma and even death” and “highly toxic.” Any reader would think the FDA was warning against poison pills. In fact, ivermectin is FDA-approved as a safe and effective antiparasitic.

• This tweet suddenly created a culture war on ivermectin. The media piled on, doctors prescribing it were persecuted, and the AMA and other ‘professional’ medical groups banned it by making it impossible to prescribe or fill the prescription at pharmacies. Of course this had its intended affect: Doctors were suddenly afraid of prescribing a drug that a world famous toxicologist could not find a single case of an ivermectin overdose death from a drug which is on the WHO’s essential list of medicines.
• This fear created the failure of a ‘get sicker’ policy despite ivermectin’s ability to fight 21 viruses, including SARS-CoV-2, the cause of Covid-19. A single dose reduced the viral load of SARS-CoV-2 in cells by 99.8% in 24 hours and 99.98% in 48 hours, according to a June 2020 study published in the journal Antiviral Research.
• The reason for the war?  Just two days after the tweet, the FDA granted approval to the Pfizer clot shot giving the Biden admin the foundation to enforce ‘vaccine’ mandates where people were forced to get the gene therapy shot or lose their jobs.

For a quick flashback of the tyranny, watch this video of a doctor being forcibly removed by police from a hospital board meeting simply for endorsing ivermectin that he used in his own private practice, and for evidently breaking protocol by whispering a “thanks” to a politician who questioned hospital policy. He shared at about 7:00 that doctors on staff at the hospital would come and see him to get ivermectin, but would not speak their mind or prescribe it for fear of retribution from hospitals or their own medical groups. He states that 99% of doctors now have a contract with the hospital and are beholden to it, and that ‘brutal’ COVID treatment protocols, which one nurse blamed for 90% of hospital deaths, were followed to the letter due to government financial incentives.  Hospitals were simply not interested in early treatment which have saved lives and freed up hospital beds.

There is a little good news:

• In 2024, in an unprecedented court case, the US FDA led by Commissioner Robert Califf, MD, was forced to take down all of its false and misleading claims on ivermectin. The 3-judge panel ruled the law did not authorize the FDA to give medical advice.  (Remember this factoid for the future because the FDA has not admitted to any wrong doing and has not changed its position)
• There are now 10 states filing bills to make ivermectin available over the counter.
• The documentary ‘Epidemic of Fraud‘ exposes the orchestrated efforts to discredit this powerful repurposed medicine and uncovers the influential powers behind the attempted takedown.

Similarly to Lyme/MSIDS, you must go outside the system to obtain true help.  Clinics and hospital monopolies are all in bed with Big Pharma as well as the corrupt medical groups that castrate doctors who do not blindly stay in line and follow the accepted narrative.

Never forget what ‘the powers that be’ did by failing to treat COVID patients early with a safe, effective, cheap drug.

According to Dr. Peter McCullough, this suppression of treatment cost 500,000 lives.
