Excellent piece here from M.C. Armstrong! Thank god for Dr. Bowden, Dr. Kory, and all the REAL frontline doctors who put themselves on the line for real people.
MY FAMILY USED - AND USES - IVERMECTIN
When my family , and my 70 year old parents, got COVID in 2022 for the first time, we were all unvaccinated. I got Ivermectin and a supplemental protocol that we went on.
My parents had flu-like symptoms and completely lost their appetites. AFTER TAKING IVERMECTIN THEIR APPETITES CAME ROARING BACK WITHIN 12 HOURS, AND THE GOT OVER COVID IN ABOUT 7 DAYS FROM THAT POINT.
I have also used Ivermectin post-COVID when I got a pretty severe flu-like sickness and it helped me get better extremely quickly.
Thank you, Michael! This assignment was a real wakeup call for me. I went in with reservations and skepticism, but I did the deep dive into the research on Ivermectin, talked to doctors in my family, doctors at my gym, and, of course, Dr. Bowden herself. And the more I read into Bowden's case the more it became clear that she was the victim of narrative warfare and politicized science.
There is one point HONEST MEDIA forgot to mention in this piece. The reason BIG PHARMA attacked Ivermectin so ferociously is that if it were proved to be safe and effective at treating COVID that would have made it illegal for an EUA to be granted for any COVID vaccine. EUA is only legally available when a disease or illness has NO OTHER safe and effective treatment available.
This is so spot on! My own daughter is an EM Dr and thinks I’m absolutely out of my mind! It cost me a lot to get ivermectin when I got Covid the first time, but had it on hand the second time I got it. No shot ever! If I didn’t babysit my daughters kids, I would not have been allowed near them during Covid. Now, I take it daily for inflammation and prevention. I thank God every day for Dr’s like you guys who actually took the time and results for telling us the truth! 73 and going strong.
My father worked at the CDC. When I told him about Dr. Bowden's experience, he was floored. He'd never been denied a prescription before in his life during his career as an infectious disease doctor. Doctors can agree to disagree on opinions and practices, but the entire field has been captured by Big Pharma and their stranglehold on our government agencies. It's out of hand and patients and divided families are paying the price. I'm so sorry to hear about the tensions in your family, but I have a feeling things are about to get better. Thank you for taking the time to read our work! Matt
Yep. University of Michigan for medical school. Served at the CDC during Vietnam. Was offered the Agent Orange project at Fort Detrick but chose the CDC instead. Didn't want to see his skills weaponized.
Bravo to Dr. Bowen but too bad her decision/willingness to settle her case with the govt meant no open discovery of the particulars which would have lent considerable broader public awareness of the fundamentals underpinning the case. Though many of us recognized early on that the smear campaign leveled against Ivermectin was a red herring, like labeling a truth teller as a "Conspiracy Theorist" to gaslight the unaware, mainstream media ran with it 24/7 (the Govt/Pharma/Med complex is very well bankrolled) and unfortunately for a great many it worked. Big Pharma+ Big Government+Big Media= Big Con Job
Red herring indeed, Alan. The three core fallacies of the COVID narrative (and the anti-Kennedy community) are the red herring, the association fallacy, and the ad hominem fallacy. Basically, distraction, confusion, and name-calling.
somehow I have a sneaking suspicion some kind of "persuasive" methods were brought to bear in order to to scuttle any chance of discovery leading to bright light shining on the dark reality behind the curtain
I've been involved in multiple lawsuits against government actors, and I have closely observed dozens of such cases.
When the government comes forward and offers a PLEA DEAL in a case like this that is so rare, and it can be REVOKED by the government at any moment. It is a very delicate situation. Once a deal is offered and reached, if it is not taken quickly it can disappear just as quickly. I have literally seen precisely that happen.
I have seen the government make an offer to plaintiffs to settle a case, and just days later the offer is revoked.
I am so, so, so incredibly impressed with Dr. Bowden, the other plaintiffs on the case and their legal team. What they pulled off sets a precedent that is very likely to save thousands if not millions of lives in the decades ahead of us.
Hi Michael, very much appreciate your comment and perspective on these kinds of matters. I readily admit I have not had such experience. Still the perception for many of us is that as the govt plays "now you see it, now you don't" and other variations on the takeaway game, the incentive is for any offer that meets a minimal threshold to be accepted before it's withdrawn. So plaintiffs might naturally/understandably take that offer while it's on the table thus discovery is prevented. Maybe I'm missing something (entirely possible!) however it seems to me the govt is far more interested in keeping the particulars from seeing the light of day with no public scrutiny possible, and that as they say is that. If the plaintiffs' position had no merit there would be little reason for a settlement offer, but few, even class action litigants, can afford to fund an extended litigation vs the govt forever. Sometimes taking the deal is understandably the only viable option, saying sayonara to discovery notwithstanding. I get it... Thnx
Ivermectin was like a miracle for me, my husband, my patients, and the doctor I worked with. (I'm an NP, now retired.) We took it ourselves and prescribed it. I called my scripts to a compounding pharmacy which knew me well--no problem. The MD wrote a script which his patient took to a "general" pharmacy. Never, in my 45 year career had I seen an MD script refused. The RPh actually had the GALL to call an MD and tell him he "shouldn't" be prescribing Ivermectin. The interference and arrogance was incredible.
Thank you for sharing your story, Sunflower. The more people document these Ivermectin results, both anecdotally and clinically, the better the chance others will have at justice in the future.
Dr. Bowen is a true hero! This article shows how gullible and manipulated the public really is. Even when it was so obvious that this was a Big Pharma agenda, people still abdicated their own judgment for the media, government and ideologues. Sad!
I think you're right when you call Dr. Bowden a hero. There's an ancient Greek term, parrhesia, which refers to "brave speech" that puts the speaker at risk. There's a whole new subculture of COVID dissidents who embody scientific parrhesia, truth to power in the science space. Science didn't use to be so politicized. Seeing an MLK, RFK, Malcom X, Snowden, or Assange described as parrhesiac makes sense to us immediately, but contemporary medicine and science were largely free of the pressures we associate with political speech (speech that threatens power). However, things are changing. Dr. Bowden is the spear tip of a new truth-telling movement.
#Parrhesia (from the Greek παρρησία) meaning literally "to speak everything" … "to speak freely", "to speak boldly", or "boldness." Parrhesia implies not only freedom of speech, but the obligation to speak the truth for the common good, even at personal risk.
Any entity or professional who has and/or does speak derisively about the dissident doctors (who have been heroes) has publicly declared their depraved alignment with evil and agency with Satan.
It appeared on the surface as a war on Ivermectin, but the overarching strategy was to suppress any medicament that proved efficacious against the virus. Such a phenomenon would have prohibited the EUA of experimental mRNA shots that sent pharma profits to the moon without liability for harms. It could have been a supplement, another 'inexpensive' drug, a food, if they inhibited viral replication, Weber Shandwick PR firm would have been hired to quash their use, again to allow EUA of mRNA shots. I think what may not have been suppressed would have been a very expensive anti-viral drug that worked and ensured shareholders long term gratification.
We have used many thousands of doses of ivermectin on both our sheep and cattle over the last 25 plus years. For the sheep it is a drench down the throat, for cattle poured in a spray along the back. Used to kill worms in the intestines and also to kill lice or itchmite on the skin. The occasional animal gets double dosed by accident, very rarely an animal gets a tripple dose but we have never seen a bad result. Very safe to use. Dose is so many ml per kg of body weight. Never killed any animals. A very safe and effective health treatment.
Ivermectin is one of a number of chemicals in the same family of chemicals.
It has also been used for about the same number of years for a number of human diseases, some deadly. A very effective health treatment.
Anyone who wants to bad mouth this wonderful chemical is ignorant or has an agenda where truth does not matter.
Sinister, evil.....what is the worst word to describe it? Hard to believe there are those who would sell out humanity for money, power and/or control, but as we learn the truth about history, it is true.
What happened to Bowden has happened to many physicians.
Seems to be good basis for a class action. Moving that forward into discovery could split it all wide open. What was done and continues to be done to independent, duly licensed practicing physicians by a usurping and interloping administrative class is profane and unconscionable.
Time to drag their sorry self-conflicted asses into the public commons and give them a first class legal whuppin! Let the class action bar make some money out of this horrific episode of malignant monetization. They will get this job done.
I merely ask for the invocation of an appropriate therapy to abate an entirely treatable disease that has threatened millions of lives and thousands of livelihoods.
This is an action only physicians can bring, as so ably proved by Dr. Bowden.
"But why this fear of letting dissenting doctors speak?"
As I have stated for many years, there is only one reason to censor or silence someone who does not agree with you: you are lying and they are not and allowing them to speak freely will expose you as the liar you are. Censorship is the way of tyrants and dictators and totalitarians - and Democrats.
I have been a Democrat my entire life. But over the past eight years, I've grown uneasy as I've watched the Democrats become the party of war and censorship. So you're not wrong. But Trump, who imprisoned Assange, is no friend of the First Amendment either. Kennedy is the only candidate I trust.
Reading this makes me very, very angry. It makes me want retribution and extraordinary pain for diseased journalists, academics, government knuckle draggers and every other intentionally lying lowlifes. The entire story shows elites as willing prostitutes debasing themselves and glorifying their own cowardice by smearing those who value reason over corruption. Lefties are ever more pointless though somehow they still have value since they are human beings.

It is a wonder drug in my opinion and experience.
No wonder Big Pharma wants to destroy it.

Damn important omission. The story's in the comments.
Exactly!

Dear Nancy,

I did not know your father was an infectious disease doctor!

works every time, or so it would appear ya know?
I'm curious is there was a requirement by the judge to arbitrate the suit.
I don't think so.
But the FDA agreed to give Dr. Bowden and the other plaintiffs nearly EVERYTHING they asked for.
So Bowden's attorneys would advise them to TAKE THE OFFER because if they didn't there would be no telling what happens next.
Discovery is not guaranteed
somehow I have a sneaking suspicion some kind of "persuasive" methods were brought to bear in order to to scuttle any chance of discovery leading to bright light shining on the dark reality behind the curtain

“Brave ideas that drive impact” - Weber Shandwick web site.
I found out last week that a college friend died of an acute Turbo cancer.
I found out last weekend that friend’s thirty-year old daughter had a stroke due to a clot.
22 dead, 36 harmed among my family, friends and colleagues .
Tell me again “y’all” what is brave about characterizing Ivermectin as horse paste.
If Weber-Shandwick is culpable, how do they look in the mirror each day? How does Brad Kimberly (see below)?
https://www.vice.com/en/article/88nzn3/the-fda-was-internally-thrilled-over-that-viral-horse-paste-tweet
If you can prove that Weber-Shandwick was behind the FDA campaign, please let us know. 🙏
The social media lead for the FDA who is attributed with the Tweet has an interesting background.

I don't know about Satan, but agency capture is a problem. A big problem. And so is media capture.

That track record of safety tracks with what I'm hearing from docs and vets alike.
Sinister, evil.....what is the worst word to describe it? Hard to believe there are those who would sell out humanity for money, power and/or control, but as we learn the truth about history, it is true.
There was a lot of intentional effort to increase the deaths attributed to COVID19. Heinous, malicious and criminal
A doctor in Tupelo, Mississippi, told me the same thing, Tommy.
What happened to Bowden has happened to many physicians.
Seems to be good basis for a class action. Moving that forward into discovery could split it all wide open. What was done and continues to be done to independent, duly licensed practicing physicians by a usurping and interloping administrative class is profane and unconscionable.

This is an action only physicians can bring, as so ably proved by Dr. Bowden.
Amen.
Why do these doctors settle? Why not let it go to discovery? Settling before discovery allows the truth to continue to be hidden. I don’t understand
Lot of conversation here about Dr. Bowden’s choice and why she didn't push for discovery. More coming on that, according to Dr
Bowden: https://twitter.com/MdBreathe/status/1782424623499382814?t=5Xc7PTsgk1gBjPHG5qn4BQ&s=19
My guess would be cost. The state can always outlawyer a citizen - they have, effectively, a relatively infinite budget.
There is ' the law' and there is ' justice'. They are different things.
True. I thought about that after I posted. The innocent is often bankrupt by the time they win
So true, Candy.
"But why this fear of letting dissenting doctors speak?"

This story makes me angry, too. Let's turn that anger into something good: a new free speech movement. ✌️
Great thought.
