Now just imaging if you were in Florida and the first thing they gave you was ivermectin and monoclonal antibodies. You would have been fine in 48 hours.

some might argue that being 5'7" and 190lbs is a "health issue"

but - this is clown world - so maybe not.

lol. I guess you guys are right, that is one health problem.

I've never smoked a cigarette in my life. I didnt ask what antibiotics I was getting.

I did take ivermectin for 5 days when I had my fever at the start . I did not get the monoclonal antibodies.

6'0" 190 39 y.o, I got admitted to the hospital on day THIRTEEN. Was checking my pulse ox religiously so as soon as it tanked I went in - since I caught it so early they knocked out the pneumonia pretty easily.

Glad you're feeling better homey. All of my family and friends got over it in a day or three but it's crazy that some people just get wrecked.

I had absolutely no gas when I first got home - day 1 I took out the trash and had to sit for a bit. By day 7 I was able to get thru a day pretty much and resumed cardio (5 mins on the bike the first day, lol).

At least for me the doctors WANTED me pushing that edge; not overdo it but keep building your capacity don't just lay on the couch all day.

You're not in decent shape when you're a fatass that eats fast food almost everyday. People are ****ing delusional.

Ivermectin on the day you first felt symptoms, 2 days later, and 2 days after that and you would have avoided all of that crap you went through.

The virus goes after your hemoglobin. Ivermectin prevents it from replicating. Yours ran wild and did a number of your blood's ability to carry oxygen.

I'd be curious to know what actual medicines anyone gave you to treat the COVID, or did they just let you suffer until you needed extra oxygen?

Same thing happened to my buddy. He was out of work for 9 months, the covid pneumonia destroyed his lungs. It took like 13 months for him to be able to finally go on walks at the gym. He's pretty good now but holy ****, a year of his life basically got deleted because he was so ****ed up.

Sucks to hear bro, hope you feel better soon and the silver lining of this is that you need to take a serious look at your diet / health / lifestyle

Taking ivermectin? Too late to vaxxmaxx, may as well try the horse paste

Edit:

Post a pic of your ivermectin pills with a sticky note / spoon pic to verify no liberal shill?

That's interesting. There are many anecdotes of it working. There are also some (much fewer) of it not. Clearly something works in conjunction with it. I wish we could nail down exactly what's necessary. Maybe the dose was too low. Here's what I know about thus far:

I did take 12 mg the first few days when my body weight said i should have taken 15mg. i got the scrip from push health.

my blood work was pretty good. potassium was high so they gave me a shot to make me pee a bunch. they did not check my cholesterol in my labs.

Why did you not ask which antibiotics?

Willing to bet my left nut that you got streptococcal pneumonia hence why they gave you antibiotics and you recovered. Had nothing to do with a gay virus that doesn't do chit

At least your doctor's weren't complete fuktards and gave you the right treatment
