Man Who Cured Stomach Ulcers Ignored Over Covid Treatment

Timothy Birdnow

Experts, experts, experts. How often have we been told to "listen to the experts" and "follow the science"? Yet how often are some experts ignored because they don't follow the talking points?

Here is a prime example.

Medical science used to treat ulcers as stress-related illnesses, and people with ulcers had to follow strict diets of bland food and suffer outbreaks. Medical science assured us that ulcers were a result of excess stomach acids.

One man refused to believe the conventional wisdom - and he was right. Now ulcers are easily treated with antibiotics, because they always were the results of an infection and not stress and poor diet.

Well, the man who bucked conventional wisdom and ended stomach ulcers is now saying there is a good treatment for Covid 19.

From the Australian Spectator:

Professor Thom Borody isn’t afraid to get his hands dirty. Indeed, the world-famous gastroenterologist who teamed up with Nobel prize-winners Barry Marshall and Robin Warren to take on the medical establishment, is seen by some as a sh-tstirrer. Yet Borody’s innovative treatments have saved hundreds of thousands of lives and more than $10 billion in avoided medical costs.

So, you would think, when Borody says there is a cure for the coronavirus, the medical establishment and Australia’s political class would sit up and take notice. Yet, the fact that so far they haven’t should surprise no one. Marshall, Warren and Borody had to fight for almost two decades until the simple idea was accepted that peptic stomach ulcers were caused not by stress and spicy food but bacterial infection.

Resistance came not just from scientific sceptics but an ‘Acid Mafia’— big pharmaceutical companies who made a lot of money selling drugs under the old premise that gastric juices not helicobacter pyloriwere to blame. It was Borody who came up with a cheap triple therapy of low-cost antibiotics to cure ulcers, but it wasn’t until Marshall and Warren had won the Nobel prize that the Acid gang stopped attacking the innovators.

‘It just takes courage and years and years of perseverance to change paradigms,’ Borody says. The trouble is we don’t have decades. More than 300 Australians have already died of Covid-19, since Dr Kylie Wagstaff announced on 3 April that ivermectin, a drug that’s been around for almost 50 years and kills everything from head lice and scabies to the parasites that cause river blindness, also kills Sars-Cov-2 virus in test tubes.

Since then, doctors using ivermectin have saved thousands of people around the world who were sick with Covid, even many close to death; the mortality rates for those on ventilators dropped from 81 per cent to 39 per cent. As for people who have just been infected with the virus, there is an almost 100 per cent cure rate. And it is also working as a prophylactic, protecting healthcare workers.

Yet, other than Borody, almost nobody in Australia is treating patients with ivermectin. Why?

So, why? Because the powers that be DON'T  WANT A WORKING TREATMENT. They want to continue with locking people up and forcing them to wear masks. It's why there has been such a war on Hyrdochloroquine as well; we are seeing a fundamental transformation in the way we live based on our reaction to this virus, and it means money and power and a chance to revolutionize the human condition. George Soros called it revolutionary, for example. And tinpot dictators in multiple blue states and around the globe have power undreamed of by their predecessors.

So Dr. Borody isn't an expert to the media or Big Health. He isn't saying the right things.

We are well on the other side of the looking glass.

The article absolutely nails it:

The two main reasons that doctors aren’t yet prescribing ivermectin and doxycycline for Covid-19 are, first, that medical litigation has created an ultra-cautious culture even when there is virtually no risk, and second, doctors are mostly imprisoned in the prevailing paradigm which holds that there is no effective treatment to cure Covid-19 and that the only way out of Australia’s pandemic penitentiary is a vaccine. That’s a message that is promoted by powerful pharmaceutical companies who hope to make a motza out of expensive patented medicine and who would make nothing from a cheap generic cure.

It is extraordinary how little thought has been given to an effective cure. In part that’s because the only drug, other than ivermectin, that has shown promise as a prophylactic, an anti-viral and in dampening down Covid’s fearful cytokine storm is hydroxychloroquine, which has been demonised both by Big Pharma and by US Democrats. It is now an article of faith on the Left that it doesn’t work, despite remarkable results at some of America’s leading hospitals and support from Ivy League academics. Indeed, it has become a slur. Paul Krugman, economist at the New York Times and Nobel Laureate beloved of leftists, damned President Trump’s payroll tax cut as ‘the hydroxychloroquine of economic policy,’ and ‘quack medicine’ from ‘a pitchman hawking snake-oil policy from his Country Club.’

This ‘hydroxy hysteria’ as Trump’s trade advisor Peter Navarro calls it, has been adopted holus bolus by the ABC. However, it’s not just ‘hydroxy hatred’ that is a dogma on the Left; merely to seek a cure is, as a fellow at the Australian Defence Force Academy told the ABC, ‘an individualistic solution’ which appeals to those on the right, in opposition to ‘more left-leaning values around social responsibility.’ It’s a ‘quick fix, a magic cure’ for the ‘problem’ of the virus, he says, not ‘a social solution that implies we have to work together’ — with government —‘to address larger, more complex, and interrelated issues in society to battle the disease.’ In this toxic environment, it takes someone with guts to wade into the sh-tstorm and save Australian lives. It is our nation’s great good fortune that Thom Borody could be just that man.

In other words, their social engineering scheme won't work with a medical cure.

Never let a good crisis go to waste!
