🚨 IVERMECTIN WAS DISCOVERED IN A HANDFUL OF SOIL. WHAT HAPPENED NEXT CHANGED GLOBAL HEALTH.
Most people know Ivermectin as a medicine. Very few know where it came from. The story doesn't begin in a pharmaceutical laboratory.
It begins with a handful of soil.
During a trip to Japan's Izu Peninsula, microbiologist Dr. Satoshi Ōmura collected soil samples hoping to find microorganisms with useful medical properties.
One sample stood out.
Hidden inside was a bacterium unlike any, they had seen before. When researchers studied it, they discovered it produced compounds capable of killing parasitic worms.
Working with Dr. William C. Campbell, they refined one of those compounds into a new medicine, "Ivermectin"
Few people could have imagined that this tiny discovery would become one of the most important antiparasitic medicines in history.
The breakthrough was so significant that Dr. Ōmura and Dr. Campbell were awarded the 2015 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine.
But the story was only beginning.
Scientists discovered that Ivermectin works by targeting the nervous system of certain parasites. It disrupts their nerve and muscle function, which helped transform the fight against parasitic diseases around the world.
🌍 One of its greatest impacts came in the fight against river blindness (onchocerciasis).
Decades ago, the disease caused widespread suffering across parts of Africa, with the World Health Organization reporting that approximately 270,000 people had lost their eyesight because of the infection.
Mass treatment programs using Ivermectin helped change that. Today, river blindness is approaching elimination in many affected regions.
The numbers tell an extraordinary story.
📊 More than 3.7 billion doses of Ivermectin have been administered to people over the past three decades.
Its impact has been so profound that many experts have described it as one of the most important medicines ever developed for parasitic diseases.
Think about that. One handful of soil. One microscopic organism. One discovery. A Nobel Prize. More than 3.7 billion doses.
Millions of lives changed.
That's the extraordinary story of Ivermectin.

@saniyafatma1278 It's a big deal. Reduces your property value and raises your neighbors. Also throws off all the surveys. In some states after some number of years they can claim it their property. Talk to a lawyer, but is make him move it or lose it.
Yesterday, I did what needed to be done.
I successfully subpoenaed the congressional sexual harassment slush fund records through the House Oversight Committee. I successfully subpoenaed Attorney General Pam Bondi for a deposition on the Epstein files.
The House responded by voting - overwhelmingly - to hide their own misconduct from the American people. Both parties, united in one cause: protecting themselves.
This is the two-tiered system of justice in plain sight. One standard for the rich, the powerful, and the politically connected - and another for everyone else.
Congress demands accountability from every institution in America except the one it sees in the mirror.
🚨 HOLY CRAP! Secretary Noem just revealed @ElonMusk helped find that a few DHS staffers installed SPYWARE on her phone and computer, as well as on the devices of of other political hires
These people need to be JAILED! There HAVE to be consequences, or they’ll keep doing it!
In addition, Noem and her team found "secret, secure rooms with hidden files that we turned over to attorneys."
I don't care what anyone says: the deep state is alive and well.
Day 24 has arrived! Help a starving independent artist out. Y’all can change my life with just one click (on the quoted post) and it cost you nothing, thanks so much for your attention to this matter 🤣
🚨 INCREDIBLE: Kid Rock praised Jesus in front of MILLIONS of viewers during the TPUSA Halftime Show
NFL: TAKE NOTES. THIS is America right here.
“You can give your life to Jesus, and he’ll give you a second chance… ‘til you can’t.” 🙏🏻
I don’t chase validation from the “cool” crowd or social media. My standard is God’s Word. People think TPUSA putting on an alternative halftime show is cringe or corny? Well, I’ll gladly wear that badge. Their version of cool is demonic and anti God. I’m happy to be cringe by their standards. If they call family & faith cringe, that’s their problem.
Olympic Athletes are exercising their Free Speech rights which are guaranteed them in our 1st Amendment.
Just as we have the right to call them whiney ungrateful spoiled brats!
But free speech is not free from consequence.
Free speech means the Government cannot punish you for your words and opinions.
But paying sponsors not handing them piles of money for commercial endorsements, may be a consequence.
