Murray - I have read your articles on various topics with interest but find this article and an attack on the Malaysian MoH completely out of character. The ban on ivermectin was intended to curtail misguided public reliance on the hype about ivermectin’s capacity to treat Covid19. The lift of the band by FDA and TGA have nothing to do with empirical evidence of ivermectin as a valid treatment against covid19. It has all to do with the fact that ivermectin is harmless to humans at accepted safe dosages and a ban effected for safety reasons no longer applies now that the majority of people have been vaccinated against Covid19. It was the hype that both bodies and MoH worked against - to prevent a gullible public from thinking they were in safe harbour with ivermectin and potentially losing their lives. Do you really believe that the early experiments which were effectively tests of ivermectin on cell lines in vitro would not have been vigorously pursued by therapy proponents if testing on human subjects had worked? A recent 2023 double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled platform trial including 1206 US adults with COVID-19 during February 2022 to July 2022 showed no difference between ivermectin and placebo (https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/fullarticle/2801827). This commentary lacks rigor and assumes a global conspiracy - tinfoil hat stuff.
I used it on myself and passed many strips of 10x12mg Ivermectin to friends neighbours and people that asked me for it to use as prophylactic and acute treatment.
I can assure you that it works like a miracle.
It was heavily used in India as a combo of Ivermectin, Zinc and Doxycycline, with great success.
So you might do well and inform yourself outside of agenda driven mainstream medias.
Ivermectin has long been known to be harmless to humans at accepted safe dosages and appears to have many off label uses that would cut into the profits of big phama IF allowed to be used for those off label uses... On the other hand, COVID has mutated to a much less serious illness (like every viral illness does) - masking the fact that the vaccines an expensive expensive failure and come with a high risk of side effects for many people (young...) who otherwise have nothing to fear from getting COVID...
Many stage 2 cancer patients are treated the traditional chinese way in asia. It has a recovery rate of 90%.
Many stage 3 patients use the malay bomohs in a small village, Batu Kurau. All are completely recovered. Stage 4, bomoh tajul cannot help. Look for him. He is the healer.
I had tuberculosis death stage, lost 50% of my weight and my body began rejecting water. That was the last step to death. The chinese traditional doctor boiled me some herbs and i swallowed the bitter juice. I recovered and ate half an hour later. I m fine till today.
"treated the traditional chinese way in asia" involves doing what and for what types of cancers? There is growing speculation that some cancers might be caused by parasites - thus making ivermectin effective against them. Of course, that would mean no more expensive chemo treatments which would be financially unacceptable for the pharma-health care industry....
Chelation Therapy : It is basically a specially formulated compound (called ‘chelator agent’) sent into the blood stream to shrink & dissolve tumours. The chelator agent & its concentration is chosen based on the patient’s body condition. This is used for shrinking and dissolving cancer tumors.
Ohh a relative's wife was doing Chelation Therapy in the USA e.g. but there it involved siting in a tube to remove the metals etc. "sent into the blood stream to shrink & dissolve tumours" - not familiar with that approach as a Chelation Therapy...
The following is a transcript from a court proceeding in the US. The judge questions and Honold is FDA's lawyer providing the answers, I believe. (I took a picture of this off my TV screen from a podcast. Can't recall by whom. I have no reason to doubt the truthfulness of it):
18:06
• FDA did not purport to require anyone to do anything or to prohibit anyone from doing ...
• Judge: what about when it said no stop it? Why isn't that a command? That seems to me it's that's the if you were in English class they would say that was a command stop it that is different than we're providing helpful information.
Honold: your honor the language that the FDA used in these tweets were merely quips and I don't think that these clips change the substance of FDA statements as plaintiffs ...
• Judge: is that a command stop it?
18:52
Honold: The tweets about the horse Ivermectin were intended to advise consumers that they should not use Ivermectin intended for animals and that disc could be unsafe.
Judge: I'm sorry can you answer the question please? is that a command stop it?
Honold: your honor in some contexts those words could be construed as a command but in this context where FDA was simply using these words in the context of a quippy tweet meant to share its informational article. Those statements do not rise to the level of a command. Plaintiffs can see that it was proper for FDA to identify
Ivermectin is of endless debate which has got nowhere for too long now. Its effectiveness can be questioned indeed for Covid which some claim don't even exist.

I am still trusting my bomohs.
Even if they choose to put on tinfoil hats.
