Our world has been turned upside down. We have the daunting prospect of thousands, or even millions of people being affected by COVID-19. A lot of people have talked about a vaccine, and while a vaccine (which prevents you getting a disease) is vitally important, we have to look at what we can do when people do get the disease.
Despite politicised bad press, the malaria drug hydroxychloroquine has shown enormous promise in the treatment of COVID-19. That’s why The Palmer Foundation has made substantial resources available to fund clinical trials, scale up the availability of hydroxychloroquine, and have enough of the drug available for all Australians, free of charge.
The Palmer Foundation has supplied 30 million doses, which is with the Australian national medical stockpile.
It is important for us to see through the chaff out there. We hope you find these resources valuable. This is a situation that changes every day, and affects everyone. When it comes to life and death, politics and profit should not compete with real world solutions that are affordable to all right now.
No matter where you stand on how to best handle pandemic policy, Dr. Da Costa’s experience and view is worth a listen.
I’ve railed against this in the media that we are a part of, and the way that the propaganda reacts to this is, “Ignore it. Ignore all of this.” I’m saying this now because the general public has to be the one that gets angry. The general public should be furious at the way people have been treated in the country by suppression of these drugs, by that kind of website that suppresses the ability of doctors to practice medicine.
Kelly, who is the current member for Hughes in New South Wales, faced a strong backlash from segments of the media and political opponents for sharing information about the anti-malaria drug hydroxychloroquine. Kelly has since appeared at freedom rallies against mandatory vaccinations.
The judge’s finest moment may have been when he dashed the most glaring myth about ivermectin—that it is not safe, despite decades of use that shows otherwise. Noting that all drugs have side effects, Judge Fullerton listed ivermectin’s effects from a government website.
“(N)umber one, generally well tolerated; number two, dizziness; number three, pruritus; number four, nausea/diarrhea. These are the side effects for the dosage that’s being asked to be administered,” he said. “The risks of these side effects are so minimal that Mr. Ng’s current situation outweighs that risk by one-hundredfold.”
