I live to serve - all of the parts in RED have absolutely no basis in fact whatsoever. But Boilerman apparently thinks they do.....and I'll just leave it at that. And we dont need to fight about it - if Boilerman thinks Ivermectin is a sound medicine to treat COVID-19 as per Sean and his "expert" batshit crazy guest then so be it. There's lots of poisoned people in mississippi who agree with him.
" I had an outbreak in my nursing home. I treated with our cocktail.
And we've used agents that are -- that we knew from the beginning were effective, hydroxychloroquine, ivermectin, azithromycin, doxycycline, zinc, and we go on now to add in monoclonal antibodies. So we have a one-two punch neutralizing the circulating virus.
And it's important to take the early treatment approach, that mass vaccination is not going to be the solution.
HANNITY: I am shocked when I talk to friends of mine. And listen, this is my business, so I -- I'm constantly reading. They've never heard of Regeneron or ivermectin and what people unfortunately heard once they politicized hydroxychloroquine, two prestigious medical journals had to actually take back the studies because they weren't even right. They were wrong, and we now have numerous studies.
And you discuss in your best-selling book, Dr. Saphier, the politics surrounding even the discussion when you had nothing before we had of any vaccine or developed Regeneron and monoclonal cocktails, you know, we had nothing -- the premier expert on hydroxychloroquine said the risk is nil. Dr. Daniel Wallace, Cedar Sinai, 45 years he's been dispensing the drug.
But you rightly point out, even talked about it -- oh, that's it, you're -- you know, you got excoriated.
DR. NICOLE SAPHIER, FOX NEWS MEDICAL CONTRIBUTOR: Oh, I sure did. And so, Sean, I mean, Dr. Fareed, he's been in practice -- I believe -- I don't want to date you, so I'm sorry Dr. Fareed, but I believe like 50 years at this point.
FAREED: Yeah (INAUDIBLE)
SAPHIER: So the people who should not be restricting what he decides to do with his patients. But that's the thing. At the very beginning of the pandemic, we saw pharmacy boards state legislators telling someone like Dr. Fareed, who had been practicing for 50 years, what he can and cannot prescribe. Well, when you have a novel virus, and you have people all across the globe trying new things, trying to save lives, trying to keep people out of the hospital with medications that are cheap, had been proven safe for other illnesses and actually had known antiviral effects, that makes sense.
I mean the fact there was so much politicization around that was truly disturbing, Sean, and all honestly and it still continues to be so. I have friends, I have colleagues who truly believe that hydroxychloroquine, ivermectin, that they work. They work at preventing severe disease.
You know, the data -- I am a data person. I stick behind my evidence-based medicine and academia. And you know, the jury's still out when it comes -- when it comes to hydroxychloroquine, I don't know if I'm quite convinced yet. I think that maybe in appropriate setting it might be able to prevent severe disease. Ivermectin, a lot of studies still ongoing. We know it has an ability to decrease viral load in vitro."
