NY hospital refuses to give dying patient ivermectin despite judge's order. Patient dies
Last weekend a 75-year-old New York man hospitalized with the Chyna virus died after the hospital refused to give him the drug Ivermectin, despite a judge ordering the hospital to give him the drug in a last-ditch effort to save his life.
Although Jeremy Carter had been fully vaccinated against the virus, he still caught it at the end of August. He was admitted to Rochester General Hospital where his health deteriorated to the point that they put him on a ventilator.
After consulting with his primary care doctor, Carter and his daughter wanted to try Ivermectin. The FDA approved the drug for human use back in 1996, but to treat parasitic infections instead of covid. Despite the FDA's obvious certification that the drug is safe for human use, the agency has explicitly (and sneeringly) warned Americans NOT to use it to treat covid--with the result that thousands of Americans are dying who would likely have been saved.
Because of the FDA's threats against the use of ivermectin, the hospital refused to give Carter the drug, even though the family said they would gladly sign a release from any liability.
With the patient's condition getting worse with each passing hour, his attorney sued the hospital's parent company, asking the judge to order the hospital to give Carter the drug. The judge agreed.
But amazingly, the hospital refused to comply with the judge's order. On Saturday the parent company filed an appeal, and a hearing was scheduled for Monday.
Carter died on Sunday.
This is insane. We have a drug that's inexpensive, has no known side-effects, and has cured tens of millions of covid cases in India. Yet *directly and entirely* because the assholes at the FDA have sneered at the drug, and warned doctors not to prescribe it, Americans can't get it, and U.S. hospitals refuse to let patients take it, even as a last-ditch effort to live..
Every high official in the FDA needs to be hanged, in public, for this outrageous, murderous stubbornness.
