One state attorney-general says he won't prosecute docs who prescribe HCQ or ivermectin to treat covid. Hmm....

One of the easiest-to-understand metaphors--so easy even a low-information liberal Democrat can understand it--is...long lines of dominoes stood on their ends.

When you tip the first one...

See?  Easy.

Of course adults don't use childrens' metaphors.  Adults use more high-falutin' language to describe the same thing.  In this case it's "preference cascade."  If you've never heard that term before, feel free to Google it  Sorry, "do an internet search."

Works like dominoes: When "all the experts" tell you X is true, or that Y will kill you, all the sheep nod in unison and bleat "Absolutely!  Totally!  We believe it!"  They have no idea whether it's true, but "all the experts" say it, so it must be true, right?  Cuz dey would nevah lie to us, right?

Of course if you tell the sheep that at one time ALL the so-called "experts" believed the Earth was flat, and that the sun orbited the Earth, and that no vehicle could go faster than 60 miles per hour, and that no plane could fly faster than the speed of sound without disintegrating, they'll look at you quizically, like Jack Russell terriers, and go "What's your point?"

Nevermind. 

So...what about dominoes?  

Like all flyover states, Nebraska means nothing to the Elites in DC and LA.  But an opinion issued by Nebraska's attorney-general could be a falling domino.  That state's Health Department asked the AG if he would prosecute a doctor if he or she prescribed ivermectin or HCQ to patients who got the Chyna virus.  The AG responded with a complete takedown of the conspiracy by the FDA, CDC, Fauxi and Big Pharma to ban those effective, inexpensive early treatments.

Why did the FDA, CDC and Fauxi sneer at ivermectin and HCQ?  Why did they refuse to test those drugs as treatments?  Why did the FDA claim ivermectin was "not approved by the FDA"--a flat-out lie?  Why all the sneering and slander?  Why did Democrat governors threaten to revoke the medical license of doctors who prescribed either drug?

Why would the company that patented ivermectin go out of its way to create the impression that it might not be safe?  There are at least two plausible reasons. First, ivermectin is no longer under patent, so Merck no longer gets royalties from it.  That likely explains why Merck declined to conduct clinical trials on using the drug to treat Covid.  Can't blame 'em.

What about hydroxychloroquine?  In 2004 (long before the plandemic began) studies showed that chloroquine--a related drug-- "is an effective inhibitor of the replication of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV) in vitro" and thus that it should be "considered for immediate use in the prevention and treatment of SARS-CoV infections."

HCQ was been approved for human use way back in 1940, had been taken by almost two BILLION people since then and was universally recognized safe.  So what made nations around the globe instantly stop trials using hydroxychloroquine?

It was entirely due to one paper, published in May of 2020--just as the plandemic was ramping up--in TWO of the world’s most prestigious medical journals–the New England Journal of Medicine, and the  Lancet.  The supposedly peer-reviewed paper  claimed to have found that instead of being safe (as confirmed by billions of people taking it for years), HCQ was actually terribly dangerous--causing "30% excess deaths". Yet the data underlying the study had so many obvious anomalies--red flags--that outside researchers immediately suspected fraud, and requested the full dataset.

When the author whose company had supposedly collected the suspicious data refused to provide it for independent verification and review, the other 3 authors retracted the paper.  But the damage was done:  Most countries had already stopped using hydroxychloroquine to treat covid, and further trials were cancelled. 

The Lancet’s own editor in chief later admitted that the paper was a “fabrication, a monumental fraud,” and “a shocking example of research misconduct in the middle of a global health emergency."

Oh.  So this is how professional journalists describe the negligent killing of a million people.

New England Journal of Medicine also retracted, but again, the damage was done:  With two of the world's top medical journals publishing the same study trashing HCQ, no mainstream doctor dared to use HCQ to treat covid.  Further trials were thought to be dangerous.

Question is, with tens of thousands of people dying worldwide every week, why would someone publish a fake study to try to stop the use of a safe drug shown to be effective against a close relative of covid-19?

Say, that's a really good question.  For one thing, the plotters (which is what they were) knew the mainstream media--who pretend they REALLY know Science!--would pick up on any story debunking HCQ.  Example: Just days after the NEJM and Lancet published the fraudulent paper, Politico wrote the headline below, officially trashing HCQ for the millions of Americans who wouldn't have seen the two medical journals: 

HYDROXYCHLOROQUINE IS OUT — The FDA revoked emergency use authorizations to use the malaria medicine and its older counterpart chloroquine against Covid-19 infections. The decision landed amid growing evidence that the drugs didn’t help treat the disease or prevent infection — and accusations that the agency caved to pressure on its original decisions.

Remember: President Donald Trump had championed the drug for weeks early in the pandemic and took a course of it himself after a White House aide tested positive for the coronavirus.

… Trump didn’t appear to know about FDA’s Monday move, telling pool reporters he was unaware of the news. “It certainly didn’t hurt me,” he said according to the pool report.

What happened: After reviewing new information including results from two clinical trials released last week — showing that hydroxychloroquine doesn’t prevent coronavirus infection or benefit hospitalized patients — the agency now believes the suggested dosing regimens "are unlikely to produce an antiviral effect," FDA chief scientist Denise Hinton said in a letter announcing the decision.

So...it's beginning to look like the Lancet and NEJM papers were a deliberate fraud, designed to torpedo Trump for having said it looked promising back in March of 2020.  Which brings us back to the legal opinion by the attorney-general of Nebraska:  Lots of doctors have been quietly taking HCQ and/or ivermectin for many months.  Some were even prescribing it.  Now after the opinion, doctors will be able to prescribe it without risking their medical license.

If Nebraska starts to see use of one or both drugs rise, and covid deaths fall (just as happened in Uttar Pradesh, India), that might get officials in other states to end their opposition to the drugs.

Dominoes, citizen.
