Show this video to every critic who says “Ivermectin doesn’t work.”
Attorney Ralph Lorigo sued hospitals where COVID patients were begging for ivermectin. Out of the 72 cases he won, 69 survived after receiving ivermectin. A 95.8% success rate.
Out of the 140 cases where the drug was never given, whether he lost, ran out of time, or the hospital defied the court order, not a single person survived. 0% success rate.
Same disease. Similar hospitals. Every patient in both groups was already hospitalized with COVID when Lorigo was called. The only difference was one group got ivermectin, and one didn’t. It’s about as apples-to-apples as it gets.
SEN. RON JOHNSON: “So it’s not a random controlled trial, but that’s some pretty powerful evidence that I wish our federal regulators would have taken a look at.”
RALPH LORIGO: “Those numbers certainly tell a story, Senator.”
@mtaibbi The irony is that James Hetfield made it political by saying what he said. Had he not said anything on the topic, the concert would have remained apolitical. His statement was a political statement. We now know where he stands on the matter.
Picking a side is a trap. That's why it's a tool of the ultra powerful to herd you into one. Once you are on a side, you are stuck. You become obliged to support everything your side says and resist everything the other side says.
It makes it easy for your opponents. Rather than than answer challenges from all directions, they merely have to dismiss your side.
In reality, there are infinite "sides." A person without sides is free to think for themselves and take all people and ideas on a case by case basis. I prefer it.
