More alarming is government's response: Deny medical treatment to others (Hochul/Cuomo's denial of "elective" procedures), and more parroting of the national government's vaccine-pushing and demonization of the unvaccinated -- ignoring that a significant percentage of those now being hospitalized are also vaccinated (about 1/3 locally) . Vaccines can't help someone already diagnosed with Covid.
What can be done to keep the newly-diagnosed out of the hospital?
Here is a recent study for one well-known drug: Ivermectin for Prevention and Treatment of COVID-19 Infection: A Systematic Review, Meta-analysis, and Trial Sequential Analysis to Inform Clinical Guidelines
"Conclusions:Moderate-certainty evidence finds that large reductions in COVID-19 deaths are possible using ivermectin. Using ivermectin early in the clinical course may reduce numbers progressing to severe disease. The apparent safety and low cost suggest that ivermectin is likely to have a significant impact on the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic globally."
There are now and have been other similar professional papers (even going back to the beginning of the pandemic) recommending this and other drugs for early-disease intervention. These drugs have been proven safe over many years use for other ailments, however they are now severely restricted or demonized by government officials, insurance companies and media. We can only speculate on the reasons why, but it clearly is not based on "science."
The restrictions and demonizations need to stop and officials responsible for protecting the public health need to stop ignoring these treatments or pretending that they don't exist. Doing so in the middle of a pandemic is immoral.
