I’m going to throw in my 2 cents. I am a midlevel provider that works for a large system. I work in family medicine and have autonomy. I have been in practice for 6 years. I have been using Ivermectin. In the beginning, I used HCQ. I ended up switching to ivermectin so I didn’t have to be as concerned about QT prolongation with HCQ and drug-drug interactions. I am not against using HCQ. I have found great efficacy with Ivermectin. I see approximately 20-25 patients per day. I ALSO put people on prednisone and either doxycycline or azithromycin. IF this regimen is started between days 1-4 it is effective. I have not had ONE hospitalization with this method in 18 months. Of course, I get patients that come in (yes, I allow people in my office because even covid patients NEED an actual PHYSICAL EXAM) too late in the disease process and this regimen will not work. I try like hell to keep them out of the hospitals but have had hospitalizations in high risk patients when they wait too long to call or come in with symptoms.
With all of that being said, I think it’s absolutely absurd that we do nothing for people. Hell, even with the flu, we give Tamiflu or Xofluza. WHY does this have to be different??? We did get “direction” from the powers that be…. Providers should EITHER prescribe nothing for treatment OR send for antibody infusion.
Needless to say, my collaborating physician read one of my notes and found out I was prescribing Ivermectin. I got a lashing and a warning. They do not want us prescribing it. “There are no studies”. I told him I had information I could send him to read. He said no need because he listens to our inpatient Infectious disease doctors, who are also doing next to nothing when people are admitted besides administering oxygen.
I’m still prescribing it because well, my job in family medicine is TO KEEP PEOPLE OUT of the hospital and reduce cost, right??? Well, at least you’d think so.

Thanks for sharing this man. I knew something was up because a younger doc that I've been going to for several years pretty much gave me a word salad politician response when I brought up Ivermectin. The facetime appointment was going great up to that point, then Ivermectin became his kryptonite. Lots of um, uh, well you know, responses from him after that. Needless to say, I got zero scripts and was given the ole D3 Zinc yada yada sendoff. He was sure to run my $25 FSA payment though.

Good for you and your patients....ignore what your upline are telling you and keep doing what you're doing. I think you always have to follow the money, so there's bound to be more money achieved by the powers that be by not prescribing cheap, effective, treatments.

I read about this along with antimalarial drugs actually helping.
Not together, just thst they can.
I was on doxycycline for 45 days earlier on in this. Been around people that tested positive but i havent.
Not saying it works, but it makes me wonder.

Dafuq? Man, frick gym memberships. I spent my 20s& 30s in the gym business. Made a fortune. It’s a racket. Get a good kettlebell, a few good YouTube vids & a legit diet. All you need
Rule 1: getting “fit” is a mental challenge, not a physical one. Once you understand that, you’re ahead of the game
