Now that the long-form article I wrote on the Strongyloides hypothesis is complete, it’s a good time to summarize my current stance on the hypothesis, and what may come next.
From afar it seems odd how adamant the gatekeepers of acceptable narratives were that there was no effect to quickly adjusting to this fall back position. All while not moving quickly at all to do the work to have a definitive answer which for a drug with such a well known safety profile makes sense to have it on hand if you know you've been exposed, or test positive, etc.
this is interesting. I do know that parasites are far more prevalent than the developed countries give credence to, but that's not the interesting part. Some woman in a FB group who did some alt medicine analysis said that strongyloides was implicated in a lot of the COVID lung pathology back in 2020. If I recall correctly, she said boron would help. I doubt I could find the old post, but it certainly stuck in my mind. I had never heard of strongyloides before then.
A bit OT, but I read the following article as indicating that many COVID deaths were really due to untreated Streptococcus pneumoniae infection. Drugs were available for that condition.
most of the deaths were likely preventable, by any number of avenues of intervention. Thousands of people die of pneumonia every year, but most could treat it at home with a nebulizer.
Go home until your lips turn blue. Six feet apart. It's asymptomatic. You don't need a mask. Two weeks will stop the spread. Children will kill their grandparents. Get a ventilator. Get a million ventilators Home depot is safe. Wear a mask. Churches are toxic. If everyone gets a vax it will stop. If everyone gets two vaxes it will stop. If everyone gets boosted it will stop. Stay indoors. Fauci is the science. Kids need to be vaxed or they will kill their teachers. My vax won't work till you get one.
