That Time Ivermectin Won a Nobel Prize for Medicine in 2015<\/h2>\n

NEWS WIRE<\/span><\/span><\/h4>\n

Did podcast host Joe Rogan really beat down his purported COVID illness with a\u00a0\u2018kitchen sink\u2019<\/a>\u00a0approach to therapeutics that included the drug Ivermectin? Or, should the\u00a0<\/strong>bigger question be: why this\u00a0Nobel Prize<\/a>\u00a0winning drug has been consistently discredited and politicized over the last year and a half?<\/strong><\/h4>\n

In 2015, microbiology and parasitology research doctors\u00a0Satoshi \u014cmura<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0William C. Campbell<\/strong>\u00a0received a share of\u00a0the top prize in medicine<\/a>\u00a0for their discovery of Ivermectin, a derivative of a family of drugs known as Avermectin. The team of researchers\u00a0\u201cdeveloped therapies that have revolutionized the treatment of some of the most devastating parasitic diseases [..] which have radically lowered the incidence of River Blindness and Lymphatic Filariasis, as well as showing efficacy against an expanding number of other parasitic diseases.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

In other words, revolutionary therapies for\u00a0Humans<\/em>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ivermectin has also been cited as \u201ca multifaceted drug of Nobel prize-honoured distinction with indicated efficacy against a new global scourge, COVID-19<\/a>\u201d and already has a substantial data set collected in randomized clinical trials that \u201cfound notable reductions in COVD-19 fatalities.\u201d<\/p>\n

And yet, you have regulatory agencies like the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the same health cabal that just waved through the \u2018full approval\u2019 of COVID shots, engaging in sophomoric rhetoric about the drug as seen in this recent social media campaign:<\/strong><\/p>\n
