FLCCC and doctors now labelled quacks have been pushing this for months. Clinical successes of alternative, outpatient treatments have been directly disparaged

FLCCC and doctors now labelled quacks have been pushing this for months. Clinical successes of alternative, outpatient treatments have been directly disparaged by the FDA. I have zero trust in the institutions meant to protect us. Dr. Pierre Kory has been using this for months to treat both long-covid patients as well as vaccine injured patients. I hate to bring this stuff up on a technical forum like this, but some very disgusting incentives are at play with our healthcare system and the pharmaceutical industry, that need correction.

If you are suggesting that there is a conspiracy to keep inexpensive drugs from being used to treat covid, then I would like to point out that corticosteroids - an inexpensive and widely available generic medication - are an accepted part of treatment for people hospitalized with covid, and has been for some time now. There is no conspiracy.

  Corticosteroids are not prophylactics. They also aren't something you take to prevent hospitalizations. I'm specifically talking about treatments that, if taken on early onset of symptoms, help prevent hospitalizations in the first place. Such treatments would have rendered the Emergency Use Authorization for novel expensive treatments, null and void. And I'm not alleging a conspiracy. I'm concerned that Trump's project warp speed created incentives to suppress cheap alternative treatments to expensive EAU treatments. I generally don't believe large conspiracies are that common. I do believe that poorly implemented incentives create conspiratorial appearing behavior with negative externalities. I personally know people that directly suffered from the costs of these poor incentives, one vaccine injured friend that doctors refused to acknowledge her injury was related to the vaccine, and thus forced to pay out of pocket for several cardiologist visits and depend on her own sleuthing to finally start recovering months later. She had sudden heart issues with POTs symptoms right after her second shot. Healthy late 20s. Side note: it's amazing to me that we are all of a sudden trusting big pharma...when two years ago, everyone knew the incentives were broken, that these same companies regularly compromised the integrity of doctors, regulatory committees, and media, all while creating health crises in the name of profit.
