France reported dozens of heart incidents linked to an anti-malaria drug President Trump has hyped as a possible treatment for the coronavirus.
Data released by Frances drug safety agency showed 43 cases of heart incidents linked to hydroxychloroquine, underscoring the risk of providing unproven treatments to COVID-19 patients.
This initial assessment shows that the risks, in particular cardiovascular, associated with these treatments are very present and potentially increased in COVID-19 patients. Almost all of the declarations come from health establishments, the agency said. These drugs should only be used in hospitals, under close medical supervision.
France has recorded 100 health incidents and four fatalities linked to experimental drugs for those with the coronavirus since late March. Three other patients had to be revived, and 82 incidents were considered serious.

(111,249 posts)of this drug family for decades. I no longer have access to a medical library and searches online have been clear as mud, but I have a sneaking suspicion that using it for other conditions has shown those properties are dose dependent and if you get the dose that high, you risk poisoning the patient to death.
The fact that they're safe and effective at low dose for autoimmune disease doesn't mean all dosages are safe. He won't lose his investment, between people with autoimmune disease and those with susceptible strains of malaria, the drug will always have a steady demand. He just won't be allowed to make a killing because doctors will end the studies quickly and publish their data.
Antiviral drug cocktails should show more promise, but again, doses have to be high to kill this little bastard.

CoVID breakfast. More parasite drugs to the Rescue Beware.
Now there was a paper that another anti-parasite agent maybe useful. The FDA-approved Drug Ivermectin inhibits the replication of SARS-CoV-2 in vitro.Caly L, Druce JD, Catton MG, Jans DA, Wagstaff KM.mAntiviral Res. 2020 Apr 3:104787. doi: 10.1016/j.antiviral.2020.104787. [Epub ahead of print]
However, before you get your doses of sheep-dip read this.
I know that you like to get on the internet and get a supply of the latest treatments, because that is what you can expertly do. You have had years of practice of finding treatments on the internet that you can get without dealing with your neuro
.Come on
Of course you do this! How many of you are still having 30 2mg biotin tablets for breakfast?
Ivermectin is all over the place it is used on millions of animals. We have already heard of a death from someone taking the anti-malaria drug used to clean aquariums. Dont get a Darwin Award because you have been down to the pet shop.
Whilst ivermectin has been used in millions of animals that have taken this drug as it is used to kill parasites like mites that live on the surface of people and even pinworms and it has also been used by millions of people to treat parasitic helminthic worm infections that get in your eyes, if this drug had been tested in a collie dogs and a certain type of mouse. This drug would never have been invented. It could have killed Lassie
The drug is called ivermectin and whilst it can do many things, one thing it can do is kill nerves. It appears by targeting a chloride channel (GABA) When it was given to a mouse strain called the MDR-1 mice, it killed them because of toxicity to the nerves. In Collie Dogs there were neurological problems and I once here a story of a human who was working at a Pot farm who got neurological problems. They were controlling pot mites with avermectin a close relative of ivermectin. !!!!

This is the drug that killed one of my cats and has permanently sickened one of the others that was alive during her "treatments" as I was told by the greedy veterinarian and the drug co. that I MUST use this on all of the cats I had at that time as well, and so I did. The one that was also sickened is still alive and has been permanently injured by this garbage drug.
Throw in the heart "incidents" as mentioned in the research from France, this = genocide!
As it mentions, ivermectin is all over the place used as a treatment for head lice, a "natural" pesticide on specific "organic crops" (lettuce, oranges and strawberries to name just a few) and also cannabis!
BUYER BEWARE!

Take it, he says, who cares if you die, I will profit and that is paramount! Of course he revels in the deaths of the working class and poor, more social security and medicare money for him to steal for himself first and his fascist oligarch friends 2nd.
