report suggests

Two healthy middle-aged females returned to almost their normal daily activities after taking daily antihistamines for long COVID, according to a recently published case report. The researchers noted long COVID is a chronic condition when patients who are infected with the virus have persistent symptoms that extend beyond the typical time frame for the infection to resolve, but the illness currently doesn’t have any evidence-based treatments to guide how to manage it. "Most patients tell us that providers have not recommended anything that has helped," said co-author Melissa Pinto, associate professor at the University of California, Irvine Sue and Bill Gross School of Nursing.

Comments:

And, as of yet, Fox has NOT reported on the wipeout of Wuhan virus in much of India, and other parts of the world with ivermectin and HCQ in conjunction with other inexpensive drugs.
I hope this works out for those who have 'long COVID' symptoms. Diphenhydramine is dirt cheap. I bought 300 25 mg pills for $8.50 at Walmart a few months ago. I use it for occasional allergies.

"Most patients tell us that providers have not recommended anything that has helped." Well, there's an understatement! There's no (financial) incentive to helping. But there is a financial incentive to keeping people hospitalized with covid, as well as in having them die of covid in their hospitals.

Doesn't sound to me like these two middle-aged females are elite scientists. Don't let this story get out, or Dr. Fauci will call his friends in the MSM, like Nora O'Donnell of CBS, and they'll start making up stories of these women pretending that they can "practice medicine" without a license by recommending their antihistamine anecdotal evidence. Mustn't have that--oh no--gotta have a billion-dollar deal with Pfizer to have a new-fangled drug regimen that the government can pay for, so Fauci gets a cut or kickback, and a dozen appearances on CNN.

One of the biggest "controversies" the media and government officials have CREATED and incessantly drilled down on is Physicians and Pharmacists who prescribed or allowed well known and cheaper drugs to be used "off label". THEY WORK!!! But woe to anyone who would suggest that ANYTHING other than Covid-1984 shots be used. Over-the-counter non-prescription solutions have shown some promise at times, but the MEDIA will not report it. The Socialist government and most of the media are in an incestous unholy alliance, and it is all about POWER and CONTROL. The word "Science" is derived from the Latin root word "scientia" which means "to know", and the "science" is suddenly changing in an election year because the con job is up! People have had enough! Nightime sleep aids have used the ingredient in Benadryl for years because it has a side effect of causing drowsiness, and there was as recent story that famotidine which is an OTC antacid has also had some effect. This is something that has been either suppressed of non-reported. This doesn't mean I'm giving medical advice-- what it means is that there has been a willful and purposeful effort to deceive the public, and it is not a "science" issue, but a "political science" issue.

Re #8, for a long time Benadryl was an external form of this drug, and I knew it for years as a treatment for bee stings, and poison ivy itching. Only recently (at least to the old guy) have I seen it as an oral antihistamine formulation. It may be years now, but it was known for external use originally. It you look for that brand, be sure to get the oral version. But, whatever brand you get, diphenhydramine has been around for many decades, I have used it for over 40 years under many different brand names. And it is now about THE cheapest and most readily available of the antihistamines. Antihistamines are notoriously fickle drugs. I remember asking several friends who are pharmacists decades ago "What's a good antihistamine for my occasional allergies?" Each one, separately, snorted and laughed and said something like, "No way to know for a particular person. An antihistamine that is great for one person does no good at all for another. And they have highly varying side effects like drowsiness. You just have try what's out there OTC and see what works for you." Along those lines....our doc at work (we used to have several company doctors, years ago) gave me a dimetapp pill for a sinus headache. Within 20 minutes of taking it, I realized that I had to head home NOW or I'd have to get my wife to come and get me, I was rapidly becoming extremely drowsy, and soon would be unable to drive safely. I made it home and slept for about 6 hours. That OTC drug is alike a Mickey Finn to me, but others find it to be a great one for allergies and no side effects. Antihistamine affects are highly variable, person to person. So, this may not work for everyone for long COVID, who knows? Cheap and worth a try, since most docs are useless on anything related to the Wuhan virus.

Been a fan of Allegra, Benadryl, and Mucinex for quite some time. The only downside is in the end you get an antihistamine effect, and you have to stop taking them which I did recently. All the nasal and sinus crud can travel to your lungs and stomach, and if you had an infection, now its traveling throughout your body. Will probably go back on antihistamines sometime in the future. Always fighting nasal and sinus congestion and runniness to some extent. Fight allergies too. Notice drinking extra fluid seems to help. Of course, none of this has to do anything with COVID which I think I have never caught. Does COVID have anything to do with what these people are fighting? There is a big gray area in all of this.

Documents obtained by NATIONAL FILE show that the University of Pennsylvania, which hosts and funds Joe Biden’s think tank called the Penn Biden Center, directly profits from the sale of Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna Coronavirus vaccines. The University gets more money if more vaccines are sold. The University of Pennsylvania also gets “milestone payments” when the Biden administration’s Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approves a Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine, which represents a massive conflict of interest for Biden. BioNTech pays the University of Pennsylvania Board of Trustees directly, and the university is protected from civil liability if people try to sue for “bodily injury” or “death” caused by BioNTech vaccines.

COVID: The after times 8 replies

The Covidian orthodoxy is beginning to crumble. Some governments have discovered that their approach did not improve anything. On the contrary, at least one study shows that the myriad restrictions on normal life have had the opposite effect. That confirms what many people said 18 months ago when challenging the official dogma was considered an act of heresy. Now what? There is going to be a clear delineation of human interactions in the aftermath when compared to the before times. It is almost impossible to expect otherwise. Like many of you, I have learned things about people I thought I knew that were hard to believe.

Is the climate changing? Yes. Is mankind contributing to the change in climate? Yes. Should major national policy respond to this change? No! Climate changes continuously, both warming and cooling. There is nothing new in this and probably nothing to get excited about. Man inevitably modifies the climate. The only questions are by how much and in which way. Historically, man has modified the landscape sufficiently to make a noticeable impact on the climate. The essential question we must address is, how much are we, today, impacting the climate, and is that impact harmful? The answer is we don't know!

The green agenda often backfires when governments embrace it either as a means of placating militant environmentalists or as a half-assed attempt to take a shortcut to some sort of utopian future where evil petrochemicals are no longer being used. We see plenty of examples of the former, where Americans are paying far more at the gas pump because Biden shut down the Keystone Pipeline and is hobbling domestic oil and gas production, and where Germans are shivering and electricity prices are soaring because coal and nuclear power plants have been shut down. But the latter path also carries disaster in its wake, as Sri Lanka has discovered.

Poland successfully, nonviolently defeated Marxism and is a model for defeating Marxism in America today. Poland, faced with the Marxist destruction of their heritage and society, created a heritage and spiritual renewal movement, which led to Solidarity and to the end of communist rule in Poland and subsequently in the nations of Central and Eastern Europe, between 1979 and 1991. For Marxists, the destruction of America’s heritage and society is absolutely necessary. The Communist Manifesto states, “Communism… acts in contradiction to all past historical experience… can be attained only by the forcible overthrow of all existing social conditions.” Therefore, the chaos in society [SNIP] are all intentional.

Most “either/or” questions are designed to make you choose, but sometimes the correct answer is “both.” When dealing with someone like President Joe Biden, it’s not always possible to know the answer to a simple question: is this man stupid, or is he just a liar? There is ample evidence of both, almost always, but the exact tilt of a scale and in which direction it points for the majority is not always clear. As such, you are sometimes left wondering which it is, but there is little doubt it is at least one and usually some combination of both. So what has me asking this?
