It hit really close to home today. The medicine that may save a man fighting for his life is literally just a few yards down the hall from where he is dying, but University of Cincinnati doctors and administrators refuse to give it to him. In fact, they are fighting in court today to keep it away from him.

As Jeffrey Smith’s condition worsened under UC’s care, his desperate wife looked for alternatives. She ran across Ivermectin and asked that they try it, but they refused. They argue that there is no evidence that it works. This is more than utter nonsense; it is an outright lie. If I can find the evidence as a novice with minimal searching, it’s obvious that a major medical research institution like UC knows about the doctor reports of using it to save sick people as well as the effective prophylactic use overseas.
What’s the downside of using this drug? He’s apparently dying anyway. These people won’t even give him vitamins that have virtually no negative risk.
It’s one thing for non-physicians such as UC President Neville Pinto, Board Chairman Ronald D. Browne, and Provost Valerio Ferme to make policies that direct their subordinates to follow CDC, NIH, and other government guidelines as well as to keep their Big Pharma funders happy. It’s unconscionable for the doctors in leadership positions to put up with this. The doctors should be pounding on the suits’ tables demanding that they be supported to put patients’ health first, the CDC, NIH, and Big Pharma be damned.
UC Health is run by a doctor: Richard P. Lofgren, MD. UC’s Chief Medical Officer is Evaline Alessadradrini, MD. They can’t morally hide behind policies.
The media continues their smearing campaign. The 40 year old repurposed drug that has saved countless people’s vision was deemed “controversial” on this morning’s news. The outside doctor who tried to help Mr. Smith was said to be unqualified. He did a fellowship at Yale and teaches at a medical school, for goodness sake.
