Research (ICMR) and the National Task Force on Covid-19 have dropped the use of Ivermectin and Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) drugs from their revised guidelines for the treatment of the infection.

The decision was taken after experts found that these drugs have little to no effect on Covid-related mortality or clinical recovery of the patient.

Ivermectin and HCQ were dropped from the clinical guidance after studies found that these drugs have little to no effect on Covid-related mortality or clinical recovery of the patient.

Studies have found that HCQ and Ivermectin have little to no effect on Covid-related mortality or clinical recovery of the patient.

The Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) and the National Task Force on Covid-19 have dropped the use of Ivermectin and Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) drugs from their revised guidelines for the treatment of the infection.

The decision was taken after experts found that these drugs have little to no effect on Covid-related mortality or clinical recovery of the patient.

“HCQ may be considered for removal from guideline, with recommendation to use with caution only in clinical trial setting (since there is some genuine uncertainty regarding the possible benefit for severe cases and in low dose),” said the document titled ‘considerations for exclusion of Ivermectin and Hydroxychloroquine from the clinical guidance for management of adult Covid-19 patients’.

Several clinical studies have shown the low mortality benefit for HCQ, said the document. In fact, when HCQ is administered with azithromycin, it increases the risk of adverse drug effect (ADE) in patients, experts said.

Studies also found there was no clarity on mortality benefit, no effect on length of hospital stay and recovery in case of Ivermectin.

Recommending that Ivermectin be dropped from the clinical guidance, experts cited 13 systematic reviews of which “7/13 showed mortality benefit, 4/13 no mortality benefit, 2/13 inconclusive/unclear.”

Additionally, there was a high risk of bias in many of the studies, particularly with the ones showing mortality benefit, as the level of certainty is low in them.

The recommendations were made at a meeting of the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) and the ICMR national task force for Covid-19 and the Joint Monitoring Group on August 20.

Meanwhile, cautioning that the upcoming festival season is a critical period, AIIMS-Delhi Director Dr Randeep Guleria said the next 6-8 weeks are going to be critical and the community has to come together to ensure people follow all Covid norms and aggressively encourage vaccination.

While the number of new Covid-19 cases are steadily declining across the country, the Union Health Ministry has advised states and UTs to keep a strict vigil as the country is still in the midst of the second surge of the pandemic.

All I know is anecdotal.
As mentioned in another thread: I got cold-like symptoms. (I was on a monthly prophylactic horse paste dose)
I lost all sense of taste and smell. I took the horse paste 3 days in a row. By day four, my taste& smell started to return.

Not foaf, this happened to me.
No, I didn't test because I chose not to play their numbers game.

Who benefits?

Loss of taste and smell is a pretty good indicator. Everyone of my family went that route after testing positive and some have not come back completely.

All I know is that I have shared my HCQ and Ivermectin with no less than 10 people and all 10 recovered within a few days and no one was hospitalized. This incudes myself and my wife who both had Covid, with positive tests, and we recovered with no issues. I also know other people who did not take it and some of these ended up hospitalized and I know of others who have passed at the hands of the medical system. It is antecdotal and doesn't even resemble "science". However, I believe it works and I'll trust my God-given immune system and when necessary something like Ivermectin. My trust of the medical establishment has reached, well, close to 0.

Even though the vax does nothing to stop the spread and increases the risk of variants that are unaffected by the vax.

IndiaToday is their version of the MSM.

Recommending that Ivermectin be dropped from the clinical guidance, experts cited 13 systematic reviews of which “7/13 showed mortality benefit, 4/13 no mortality benefit, 2/13 inconclusive/unclear.”

Basically they did it because there was not 100% proof of ivermectin's benefit. And just like our yellow journalists in this country they are complete idiots in their reporting.

I see the globalists have gotten to the Indian government now. Watch their low vaccination rates get higher and watch their low infection rates begin to skyrocket. One of the things they left out is HCQ does little to any good without the elemental zinc as the HCQ is a zinc ionophore. They did that with studies in the U.S. to try to prove HCQ doesn’t do anything.

They didn’t combine it with zinc and they gave it to hospitalized patients with severe covid disease. As an antiviral prophylactic they know HCQ and zinc need to be administered within two or three days at the most of presenting with symptoms and better yet upon being symptomatic in the first place.

And as there is a huge pharmaceutical industry in India I’m sure the researchers aren’t feeling any pressure to find that Ivermectin is effective when you have all these expensive on-patent drugs you can give people and make a lot of money. /sarc

Way too many studies and stories abounding of people even severely ill responding almost immediately to high dosing of Ivermectin.

Doctor discusses Ivermectin success in India, questions Canada's COVID approach

In India, Ivermectin and other prophylactics have been used successfully to treat COVID-19 patients.
By Kelly Lamb
  • December 03, 2021
Interview

Dr. Lenny Da Costa is a successful physician in both Goa and Mumbai, India. Dr. Da Costa specializes in geriatrics and preventative cardiology, with a passion for treating his patients through functional medicine and natural medicine where possible.
This is what he has done for thousands of patients over the years, and has carried into his treatment of patients with COVID-19 over the course of the pandemic.
Dr. Da Costa has expressed concern about Canada’s approach to COVID-19, citing the reluctance to try so many treatments that he sees working in his state and country everyday.
In India, especially in the province of Uttar Pradesh, Ivermectin, alongside other prophylactics, has been used successfully to treat COVID-19 patients and was responsible for remarkable drops in disease severity in the regions it was used.
Yet in Canada, it is seen (and mocked) as “horse dewormer.”
Those who try to discuss it as an option are often dismissed as ‘conspiracy theorists’ or ‘quacks’. As such, it has not been allowed to be used or studied as a treatment for COVID, even resulting in the discipline of an Alberta physician in recent months for effectively using it on patients.
In this informative interview, Dr. Da Costa speaks his mind about what he and others in parts of India use to treat COVID in his patients, especially the elderly who are most vulnerable.
He also bravely and openly discusses his concerns with the COVID-19 vaccine roll out, the ignoring and censorship of physicians or scientists who speak against the mainstream treatment narrative, and more. Dr. Da Costa also aims to inspire hope in those who are panicked or scared about COVID and the future of the pandemic.
No matter where you stand on how to best handle pandemic policy, Dr. Da Costa’s experience and view is worth a listen, especially if you are a Canadian health-care professional or politician.
He is a man who truly cares for his patients, as well as public health far beyond the borders of his state or country. If nothing else, hopefully those who listen can unite under one core idea that he promoted: critical thinking. Perhaps we could all do a little more of that!

Finally found something, but pretty confusing. Proclamation from whomever stating that drop in cases in UP was bald-faced- lie.

Another said there was a drop but it was no different in magnitude than other provinces.

I gave up there and went back to sucking my thumb.

Neither here nor there.
Doesn't India have an issue with malaria just like africa does? And also the removal of ivermectin makes no sense since they have one of the highest parasitic infection rates in the world. I mean it's like they're really trying to kill most of the population off!

so how many times is it said that it doesn’t work, in the opening of the article?
Well I posted the first five(5) paragraphs.
so I guess they want you to know that it doesn’t work.

I am of the opinion that enough anecdotes and you have data.

But it boggles me that the mainstream can't see that. Yet take UP in India. Big drop in cases after Ivermectin. Good data? Maybe not. There was a report that several of the UP provinces had reported no death from Covid. Looks good until you note that they reported no deaths from suicide, auto accidents or anything else. Apparently nobody died in those provinces during the reporting period.

Amazing what Ivermectin will do.

Except it didn't do it in Brazil. They handed out Ivermectin pills by the millions and got a death rate for Covid higher than ours. Maybe they forgot to use zinc.
