Yes thanks I knew he said this. But he was hopeful that natural immunity would protect a lot of the unvaxxed....it doesn't appear to be doing so with this new variant...which is why I'm asking....because it is infecting the naturally immune too. And this is the worst of all possible worlds...

I would suspect the good news is that not enough people have been using HCQ or IVM at a population level to be a problem for now. I'm going to guess it will still work as long as the way the virus still operates is the same.

I personally don't like the idea of using IVM as prophylaxis for this very reason, so I just take zinc and quercetin intermittently and of course Vit C and D.

Jumping into the conversation: I am 100% with you on avoiding IVM for prophylaxis. Vitamins D and C + zinc work with our own mucosal immune system, minimize oxidative stress damage and support enzymatic processes. Topical use of Povidone-iodine or hydrogen peroxide seem to kill the virus in the nose, mouth and throat by disruption of the outer membrane of the bug, which should not lead to development of resistance. N-cetylpyridinium chloride (тАЬScopeтАЭ) also disrupts the virus outer shell.

Bit scary to read people are using our last line of defense as a prevention for pets...

Geert's last major posting on his Substack was July 9. On it, he said that the vaccinated would be passing the current phases of Covid 19 to everyone, including the unvaccinated. He posited then that the next variant would mostly stay within the vaccinated community (and "enhanced severe" strength at that).

This latest evidence will probably cause him to do an update.

Like. And thank you. Love Geert, but my eyes tend to roll back in my head when I try and read him...the science is way above my brain pay grade...

It's pretty astounding that he makes his info publicly available. Not long ago, only a select few reading the right scientific journals would be able to see it.

Read it to the kids you work with ! Maybe one of them will become the next Geert (and maybe they'll have some good ideas as they daydream in their seats, otherwise). Ha.

I have a lot of faith in the ingenuity of the human species...I hope one does, and I hope another one comes up with the answer to Peak oil, if indeed that is what is behind the scenes.
