Are superheroes smart?
When it comes to ivermectin....not so much.
How does one critically assess the truthfulness of information?
Generally speaking, I first look at the credentials of those offering the information. I look at what they have done in the past. I expect opinions to be supported by data, studies etc. I expect to be able to double check claims. I look at the existing data and see how or how not the new information fits with various expert opinions (a little difficult these days). I do my own research. Then I look at what the real world is telling me and if the new information is consistent with what has gone before it. And then I consider the motivation of those offering the information and the platform upon which it is offered.
In this context, the so-called “Wellness Superheroes” (not to be confused with Dr. McCullough’s heroes) have offered a truckload of damning comment in a lengthy podcast about the toxicity of ivermectin which has come to the attention of many. CLICK HERE to view.
These “superheroes” conveniently discounted more than a hundred published clinical trials regarding the use of ivermectin in Covid-19 (C19ivm.org) and claimed that 200 studies on ivermectin use were retracted which is false. They go on to exploit the Multidrug Resistant Mutation 1 (MDR1) which may occur in dogs and in such cases ivermectin should not be administered to these animals - this is well known. But if you read the Merck approved Prescribing Information for their brand of ivermectin (STROMECTOL) there is no mention of MDR1 as far as I can see in relation to human use. But the superheroes claim if MDR1 was present it could cause severe neurological harm (even dementias) in humans and this harm could even be made worse by electromagnetic Fields. OMG. I could feel my IQ retreating and watched up to the 46th minute. You may be braver than I.
The overwhelming irrefutable data suggests that ivermectin is one of the safest drugs in medicine (no drug is completely safe). For those who wish to drill down a bit more, The Australian Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) conducted an evaluation of the safety and efficacy of ivermectin a few years back and I attach this below.
I also attach a couple submissions I made to the National Covid Clinical Evidence Taskforce early in the “pandemic”.
I also attach my submission to reschedule ivermectin back to its original listing to enable doctors to prescribe it without threat of loosing their licence to practice or going to gaol.
You be the judge about the safety usefulness of ivermectin.

The overwhelming feeling I have following the past few years is “trust but verify”. It’s incredibly difficult for most of us “normies” to believe almost anything we read or view these days about almost any topic concerning our health and well-being (let alone culture and politics), and I’d suggest this is by design. We really have entered the dumbest, most asinine and most deadly timeline in recent history and all we can do is trust our instinct.
all these new claims on ivermectin, like fertility, just don't add up, when you consider we have been giving it to animals on farms for a long time.
Getting the dose right per kg of animal is never done with scales, it is always estimated based on size, so the dose/kg will always be different. And yet they thrive. And breed. And farmers keep using it.
