I had to pause my reading, because I let myself get angry enough to set off a headache. It's for me to rein in an outburst: "DOESN'T ANYONE HAVE ANY PROFESSIONAL INTEGRITY ANYMORE!?"
Very few. We can see this culturally in television series in that very few important characters exhibit integrity. There are a few, including the heroes in Bosch, Poldark, Person of Interest (the single best series ever on a number of levels) and Outlander. Moreover, it can be seen in reviews: I have found no one reviewing these, professionally or not, mentioning integrity. Instead, they fawn over the likes of Beth in Yellowstone who, while the single best portrayal ever of a high functioning female alcoholic, hasn't an ounce of integrity.
If I ever get to writing on Substack, the topic of integrity will be front and center.
I am OUTRAGED that this occurred… many individuals lives could have been saved by taking Ivermectin. The plot thickens in the story of how COVID was mishandled .
Lies, manipulation and compromised people in this whole story makes me further want to continue to do my own research!
It was 'handled' according to plan. The great efficacy of Ivermectin or any other drug was not expected to become common knowledge because of the reduction of FEAR and EUA it would enable.
What we think is 'mishandling' was heavy-handed damage control that they are hoping can be swept under a rug. However it is a recorded data-point of malicious interference that cannot have been accidental as it was too directed so it remains as a tipping point in the whole narrative.
It should be one of the points that every HEALTH Freedom Movement activist keeps in the spotlight because Ivermectin truth alone becoming exposed should be enough to pull the whole bottom tier of the house of cards down.
Corruption of clinical trials is well known by the very people who are the editors of the leading peer reviewed journals. As you likely know, two of the most prestigious journals of medicine are The Lancet and The New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM).
Dr. Marcia Angell, Harvard physician and editor in chief of the NEJM said:
“It is simply no longer possible to believe much of the clinical research that is published, or to rely on the judgment of trusted physicians or authoritative medical guidelines. I take no pleasure in this conclusion, which I reached slowly and reluctantly over my two decades as an editor.”
Dr. Relman, another former editor in chief of the NEJM said this in 2002 - “The medical profession is being bought by the pharmaceutical industry, not only in terms of the practice of medicine, but also in terms of teaching and research. The academic institutions of this country are allowing themselves to be the paid agents of the pharmaceutical industry. I think it’s disgraceful.”
Richard Horton, editor in chief of the Lancet said:
“The case against science is straightforward: much of the scientific literature, perhaps half, may simply be untrue. Afflicted by studies with small sample sizes, tiny effects, invalid exploratory analyses, and flagrant conflicts of interest, together with an obsession for pursuing fashionable trends of dubious importance, science has taken a turn towards darkness” (2). Horton R. Offline: What is medicine’s 5 sigma? [Last accessed August 5, 2015]. www.thelancet.com. Available from: http://www.thelancet.com/pdfs/journals/lancet/PIIS0140-6736%2815%2960696-1.pdf.
It should come as no surprise that the Together Trial was corrupt. What can be done about this is an entirely different matter. Until journals are made to prevent this type of collusion with industry, we cannot trust any "scientific" evidence.
You got it. It's pretty simple. Imagine if our NIH, FDA or CDC mailed everyone vitamin D3 and K2 - the impact that would have had on Covid mortality. Go to pubmed and see the 305 research articles on vitamin D3 and Covid. Pub med is published through the NIH. You can even find research on Covid and ivermectin - showing it has antiviral properties. So our government paid for scientific research, using public funds, on ivermectin which PROVED it was an effective antiviral yet our FDA said it was a "horse worming medicine" - not meant for humans and Pfizer said there was "no evidence that it had antiviral properties". Where was the mainstream media? CAPTURED
Using the word "enlightened" to signify "informed" rather than its current meaning of "soft," I believe that hunter-gatherer societies are/were the most enlightened. They know/knew a sociopath when they see/saw one, and when the indications are/were sufficient to be certain of the diagnosis, they know/knew how to prevent further harm from such a person. Our current society is a playground for sociopaths because we don't defend ourselves against them. Nowadays only the favelados take out the trash themselves.
Exactly....I remember Tess Lawrie begging him to do the right thing on a video she recorded but he stonewalled her......she actually asked him how many lives coukd be saved with ivermectin but he simply didint caree.....
I believe the trend of ivermectin being much more beneficial to older patients than younger patients (which makes logical sense) is overall quite consistent across other ivermectin trials as well, such that in general the trials enrolling older patients were much more likely to have successful results. IIRC this same trend of a larger benefit in older patients was seen within the Paxlovid trial as well. I noticed that almost all of the designed-to-fail large ivermectin trials that the establishment loves to gleefully gloat over had ridiculously young patient populations with average age around 50 or less, and some even had an average age under 40!
Alex's work is so meticulous, expert, with well-thought out conclusions (and burdensome - the applause for his effort can never be loud enough) and his findings are way more damning than how he very fairly, soberly, and objectively presents it. I have been drowning on all sides with endless shenanigans pulled to bury IVM's efficacy by conflicted interests (you cant come up with a more conflicted outfit than Cytel - they literally work for Pharma) that I quit spending time on these trials (i piggyback on Alex's work). Instead I wrote a book amassing all of the evil corrupt actions from many different spheres of society - however, in that book, I argue the foundation of the entire war on ivermectin was the work done by trialists like Mills and the editors of the high impact journals that Mill's trials sailed to publication in. Without that work, the Disinformation campaign could never have been pulled off. Fun fact: Mills' trial won an award for "Trial of the Year" by some society of clinical trialists. Clown world
Your book is wonderful, by the way. I read it with a lot of interest. I have bought 3 copies and left in different places, so people can face it. And READ it. Keep going strong.
Thank you. I have your book and between it and RFK Jr’s book on Anthony Fauci my trust in the medical industry is destroyed. I would trust a used car salesmen more than the medical industry. What a shame.
C’mon, Man! How we gonna make 50 new billionaires on ivermectin? Or get the world so scared they voluntarily relinquish their liberty? How we gonna ensure the next lockdown - for the “climate change” hoax - goes off without a hitch?

I was recently randomly thinking about this blog and missing it, and boy you didn't disappoint!
> Our focus is on how a very influential RCT on early treatment for COVID appears riddled with ethical and scientific issues, with but few calling it to task.
I think this is the key point. Policy makers need to be pressured to zoom out and realize that they had a chance to do really good RCTs all-around: on masks, on social distancing, on vaccines, on non-vaccine treatments, and so on, and they failed pretty much completely on all fronts. And this Ivermectin trial can be a great wedge to start the discussion. It might be worth doing a round on podcasts about it and continuously doing the zoom out. There's enough intrigue and details in the ivermectin trial to make the story interesting and all the while it's a great microcosm of the bigger issues. Not only did they often not do the RCTs, but even when they did, they did them poorly!
I think you are right, they have bitten off more than they can chew. Like a drowning man they are very dangerous now. They may do anything to preserve their elite position.
It may sound crazy but I wonder if all the turmoil in the world and I include wars is not so much a distraction but a willingness to exert so much pressure on us that they are free to act against us without recourse. Such as immediate and complete censorship, immediate and complete suspension of civil rights. Lets keep pressure on them but be aware they are powerful, highly motivated and obviously not morally tempered by common decency.
Dr. Tess Lawrie's work, and her "uncovering" of Andrew Hill's malfeasance, were one of the MANY straws that put a severe strain on the camel's back of the official covid dumpster fire narrative. No longer can I be surprised about the fact that IVM was attacked for financial reasons. This article adds yet another log on that raging fire. What troubles me the most, and probably will trouble for the foreseeable future, is how many ostensible members of Team Reality make bold statements like, "IVM hasn't been shown to work via RCT" on places like Twitter. Am I living in an alternate reality, or are these supposed champions of reality and truth just as FOS as people like Dr. Fauci and Bill Gates?
This whole taking down of IVM flabbergasted me since 2020. I didn’t know how much reach they had! Anyways it set me on a path of discovery and now I think I’m a fully paid up conspiracy theorist lol.
Whitney Webb exposes the CIA/mafia axis of compromising and blackmailing those in power to do the “death cult’s” bidding. There is a reason the FBI has Epstein tapes and we won’t know what’s in there.If you go to Wikipedia and look up the CIA they list the dastardly deeds with details. Given that the CIA owns Wikipedia I conclude that they are proud of what they do. Bone chilling info re the Franklin Scandal etc etc
I forgot Sasha Latypova and Katherine Watt substacks. They present us with DoD in charge of the whole shebang re vax manufacture ie military contractors make it and is very heavily contaminated. To kill us! Taking down USA
It is possible they have bitten off more than they can chew. Viz. events in ME. It would be valuable to put on notice all those corrupted and in service of the beast that we note who they are. When things start unraveling they will likely spill the beans. I see the propaganda is not working as well as they’d like viz. shitshow in ME.

Please do. I'd love a stack on integrity.
Sad that half of the characters you reference lived 250 years ago.

I will share this!

Exactly!! None of it was mishandled. It was all deliberate and all planned.
Welcome back! Thank you for continuing to dig, and to all those who have helped you share these damning details!
Well done.
This is lot's of hard work, but there are those of still reading and learning all this time later, so you're not just pissing in the wind.

If it was that bad 8 to 20 years ago, one can easily imagine it's only gotten worse now.
Which explains, in part, why Americans are so unhealthy.

I am sure Tess Lawrie will be awaiting further Revelations with baited breath. Andrew Hill should be in prison for what he did.
In any less enlightened society he would hang for what he did, multiple times if possible if he does not finger his handlers.

Thank you Alex for all your efforts to get at what really happened and for exposing the corruption of the pharmaceutical industry!
Like to hear Pierre Kory take on this
My take:
Alex's work is so meticulous, expert, with well-thought out conclusions (and burdensome - the applause for his effort can never be loud enough) and his findings are way more damning than how he very fairly, soberly, and objectively presents it. I have been drowning on all sides with endless shenanigans pulled to bury IVM's efficacy by conflicted interests (you cant come up with a more conflicted outfit than Cytel - they literally work for Pharma) that I quit spending time on these trials (i piggyback on Alex's work).

Your book is wonderful, by the way. I read it with a lot of interest. I have bought 3 copies and left in different places, so people can face it. And READ it. Keep going strong.
As a doctor that has treated hundreds of COVID patients, I hope the truth will prevail. And that these bastards will find their fate.
Thank you. I have your book and between it and RFK Jr’s book on Anthony Fauci my trust in the medical industry is destroyed. I would trust a used car salesmen more than the medical industry. What a shame.
You'd certainly be safer trusting a used car salesman.
That’s for sure no used car salesmen recommended an experimental shot that will kill you.

I’m sure Dr. Tess Lawrie will have comments regarding Andrew Hill.
Thank you for your work sorting through this mess.

My old sign off line
IVERMECTIN/Hydroxy work, Who knew, When did they know
My new sign off line
We have moved from fight back to accountability. We need to know, who actually suppressed the early treatments, how many people died for it.
Arm yourself with information. They are coming hard now.

Amazing work, doc! Great analysis and explanation of it for us who would not know how and what to look for in these trials.
Mille grazie!
