    Breakthrough: Ivermectin Inhibits Covid Spike Protein Binding
    Published on June 14, 2021

    Written by afinalwarning.com



    Ivermectin, a common anti-parasite drug, has shown great efficacy in the fight against covid-19. For the first time, medical researchers have documented how ivermectin docks to the SARS-CoV-2 spike receptor-binding domain that is attached to the ACE2 receptor.


    In this way, ivermectin effectively inhibits viral attachment and replication, assisting a precise antiviral response that can target the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein at its most advantageous cleavage site. The researchers showed how ivermectin interferes with the attachment of the spike protein to the human cell membrane. Ivermectin is a simple medicine derived from the bacterium Streptomyces avermitilis.

    It weakens and kills parasites by interfering with their nervous system and muscle function. Ivermectin targets the glutamate-gated chloride channels in the parasite’s nerve and muscle cells, bolstering inhibitory effects in the parasite’s own neurotransmission. As the chloride ions permeate, the parasite’s cells are hyper-polarized and then paralyzed, resulting in their demise. In this study, ivermectin docked in region of leucine 91 of the spike protein and at the histidine 378 of the ACE2 receptor.

    The binding energy and constancy of ivermectin was also measured and found to be sufficient at the ACE2 receptor, proving the anti-parasitic molecule a powerful force for blocking viral attachment of SARS-CoV-2.

    Ivermectin Blocks SARS CoV-2 At The ACE2 Receptor In Humans

    The 17 randomized controlled trials that use ivermectin for early treatment and prophylaxis report positive effects, with an estimated improvement of 73 percent and 83 percent, respectively. Out of 37 early treatment and prophylaxis studies for ivermectin, 97 percent report positive effects. One of the studies documents how ivermectin inhibits the replication of SARS-CoV-2 in vitro and displays broad-spectrum anti-viral activity against the causative virus (SARS-CoV-2).

    This study showed a 5,000-fold reduction in viral RNA after just 48 hours. The study also proves that effective treatments and prophylactics can mitigate the replication and spread of a virus thousands of times faster than the paranoid, isolationist approach of social distancing and lockdowns. If antivirals were encouraged early and often, then the spread of actual infectious virus would have been mitigated at rates thousands of times faster than the insane method of treating everyone as if they are infectious.

    By treating actual infections where symptoms are present, the spread is reduced at magnitudes thousands of times greater, while conveying immunity instead of terror. The SARS-CoV-2 spike protein is designed to attach to angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) in humans. To see whether ivermectin could dock at this receptor site and block viral attachment, the researchers used a program called AutoDock Vina Extended. This docking study showed the crystal structure of the SARS-CoV-2 spike receptor binding domain.

    The researchers looked specifically at the human ACE2 receptor and calculated the root-mean-square deviation (RMSD) of its atomic positions. A lower RMSD value indicates a more accurate docking capacity. When the RMSD value is three or greater, no docking has occurred at the receptor site. Ivermectin did not dock at nine of the locations; however, it did dock at the leucine 91 region of the spike and histidine 378 at the intersection of proteins between SARS CoV-2 and the ACE2 receptor complex.

    Previous studies proved ivermectin’s efficacy, but had to use high concentrations of the drug because the study relied on African green monkey kidney epithelial cells, which do not express the human ACE2 receptor. SARS-CoV-2 is specifically equipped to infect human ACE2 receptors, so this study could prove ivermectin to be effective in much smaller dosages. Clinical trials are now underway to determine if ivermectin is an effective treatment for covid-19.

    The Global Conspiracy To Suppress Effective Anti-Viral Medicines

    The World Health Organization, the FDA, and the NIH have repeatedly suggested that no antiviral treatments exist for covid-19, even though multiple antiviral herbs and drugs have been studied during previous SARS and MERS epidemics and found to be effective. This time around, many of these antivirals were used with great effectiveness by doctors who were willing to go out on a limb and save lives. Chinese hospitals used various antiviral herbs to treat covid-19 patients.

    These hospitals studied the effects of the herbs for impeding virus-cell receptor binding, for stimulation of the host’s immunity, for blocking virus entry into host cells through action on the host’s enzymes, and for prevention of SARS-CoV-2 RNA synthesis and replication. The research found numerous phytochemicals to be effective, including: quercetin, ursolic acid, kaempferol, isorhamnetin, luteolin, glycerrhizin, and apigenin.

    The top three most effective plants for treating covid-19 included licorice root, (Glycyrrhiza glabra) chicory root, (Cichorium intybus) and hibiscus flowers (Hibiscus sabdariffa). A number of antiviral plants contain compounds that target all three antiviral targets, including olive leaf (Olea europaea), white horehound (Marrubium vulgare), black cumin seed (Nigella sativa), garden cress (Lepidium sativum), Judean wormwood (Artemisia Judaica), guava (Psidium guajava), chrysanthemum (Glebionis coronaria), and Maryam’s flower (Anastatica).

    Medical systems around the world are not properly equipped to strengthen the human immune response or understand what individuals need to overcome an infection. When it comes to fighting infections, the US FDA and European drug regulators parrot the same narrative of ignorance and apathy, withholding viable antivirals from the public.

    By the way, this is the only legal way to bring experimental vaccines to the global marketplace, by proving that no effective treatments exist.

    This suppression of science on antiviral treatments has paved the way for emergency use authorization of experimental vaccines and forced countless patients to suffer (and die) on ventilators, without treatment.

    From Adam Gaertner on Twitter and this sadly reinforces my suspicions from the outset on the IVM trial protocol being used at Oxford University.



    It's more than appalling and I would like to know who designed the trial. As has been pointed out by Pierre Kory we don't need an RCT to demonstrate this prophylactic's effectiveness; it's already been done in real time treatments (10s of millions in India for starters) and proven

    Richard Cheng MD was one of the first voices to share that vitamin C is effective treatment to support the immune system resist the covid syndrome. He also is concerned about the medical system's failure.

    Quote Richard Cheng MD PhD
    1 day ago
    The best defense against diseases is our good health and our immune system. Our human body has a built in defense system. We the human race survived and thrived over the past hundreds of thousands of years if not millions of years before any antibiotic or vaccine was invented. The rapidly changing environment, particularly the pollution in our food, water, air and our personal health products and our unhealthy lifestyle have weakened our health and our immunity.

    What happened and is happening in America since the pandemic broke is disappointing. Our top medical and public health authorities have been failing us Americans. Dr. Fauci, America’s top medical advisor on Covid-19 management, was caught more than once lying to the public and lying to the US lawmakers. He even went on to say publicly “attacks on me, quite frankly, are attacks on science” . He thinks he represents Science! More and more are being revealed that he’s been corroborating with foreign forces (even anti-American forces). Public health is America’s national security issue. How can we trust our national security with such an arrogant narcissistic Liar!? Dr. Fauci should resign immediately.

    I think this is appropriate here as it relates to immunity, another of those deplorable (sic) words that mainstream media avoid

    It's a good 38 pages or so long but the main takeaway here is more evidence of natural prior immunity.

    Natural immunity vs Covid-19 vaccine-induced immunity – Marc Girardot of PANDA
    28th June 2021 by Nadya Swart

    Source: BizNews - many links in this article below from Mark Girardot that I haven't linked to this time, but yet another well informed and re-educational on immune system function

    A must read. Here's Nadya Swart's preface:
    Covid-19 brought about an age of misinformation like never before. With this, the responsibility of journalists to provide informed, well-researched and objective news to the public has never been of more paramount importance. This article by Marc Girardot, a member of PANDA, is loaded with hyperlinks – each of which provide the source of those facts asserted in the article. The links and pictures are an integral part of this article, which takes a deep dive into the issue of natural immunity and Covid-19 vaccination. This article is not and should not be construed as ‘anti-vax’. Rather, it provides evidence of natural immunity. It is impeccably researched and well worth reading. And spontaneously endorsed by Prof Michael Levitt, the only living South African Nobel Prize winning scientist (see below). – Nadya Swart


    Should people who have recovered from COVID take a vaccine?

    Epidemiology, immunology and the clinical data all say a clear “No!”. There is no good reason to vaccinate the recovered.

    By Marc Girardot*

    A British friend, recovered from COVID, decided to get vaccinated despite being naturally immune. This is the email he recently sent me:
    “Marc I suffered a mild stroke on Wednesday 8 days after taking the Astrazeneca 2nd dose. Since I am a marathon runner I am a very ‘rare case’. I don’t smoke, have high blood pressure, high cholesterol, family history or come into any of the risk categories for blood clots…

    You did warn me against taking the second dose and I wished I’d heeded your advice. I’ve taken a totally unnecessary risk with my life and I bitterly regret doing it.”
    Contrary to most, Tony was informed; he had been told about the power of natural immunity, about the long – if not lifelong – duration of immunity, of the risk inherent to any medical procedure (yes, vaccination is a medical procedure!), as well as of the rising levels of adverse events. He admitted he hadn’t imagined it could happen to him…

    Though it is hard to assess precisely the actual severity and breadth of vaccine-related adverse events, it is very clear that vaccination against COVID-19 isn’t as harmless as pharmaceuticals, mainstream media, academia, health authorities and the medical community have been saying. And, in contrast to high risk individuals who are still susceptible, recovered people have no real benefit to balance the additional risks of vaccination.

    For over a year, mainstream media, health authorities as well as many “experts” have been downplaying the power of the immune system, dismissing natural immunity and proclaiming that immunity to COVID-19 was short-lived. Simultaneously, vaccines have been portrayed as the silver bullet to this crisis, an incidental procedure with no risk whatsoever. The data shows a different picture and many are coming forward, to challenge the official narrative. We will demonstrate that this is a fallacy.

    The human immune system is one of the most sophisticated achievements of evolution. The survival of our species has depended on it for millenia. And today, we are still very much relying on it. For the record, 99% of people infected with SARS-CoV-2 recover without treatment. Only 1% of SARS-CoV-2 patients, who did not receive early home-based treatment, end up hospitalised. In other words, the immune system overwhelmingly protects. Even vaccines depend entirely on the immune system: vaccines essentially teach our immune systems what viral markers to be prepared for, they are not cures per se. Without a functional immune system, there can be no effective vaccine.

    On the waning immunity fallacy

    Once recovered, the immune response recedes, notably via a decrease in antibodies. It is not only natural; it is indispensable to restore the body to a normal balanced state. Just as a permanent state of fever would be harmful, a high number of targetless antibodies or T-cells constantly circulating throughout the body could create serious complications such as autoimmune diseases. Taking an evolutionary perspective, only those whose antibody and T-cells count waned post-infection survived. So, a dropping number of antibodies and T-cells is reassuring, even healthy.

    But this decrease in T-cells and antibodies doesn’t mean at all that immunity is gone. It means the immune system has adapted to the new situation, and is now just on sentinel mode: Memory B- and T-cells, circulating in the blood and resident in tissues, act as vigilant and effective sentinels for decades:
    - survivors of the Spanish Flu epidemic were tested for their immunity to the 1918 influenza virus 90 years after, and still demonstrated immunity;
    - people recovered from the 2003 SARS infection demonstrated robust T-Cell responses seventeen years later;
    -the wide-spread prevalence of high cross-immunity – gained from past common cold infections – further demonstrates the resilience of natural immunity for coronaviruses.
    Indeed, all recent studies show the specific anti-SARS-CoV-2 immunity remains effective – possibly for a lifetime. Our immune system is a modular platform, it can combine in an infinite number of ways to address a multitude of threats in a variety of contexts. As such, it is neutral to the viral threats it faces. In other words, there is absolutely no reason to believe that those recovered from Covid-19 would lose their immunity over the years, or even the decades to come.

    On the reinfection fallacy

    You might have also heard of people becoming reinfected by SARS-CoV-2. Indeed, immunity, natural or vaccine-induced, isn’t the impenetrable shield described by many. Essentially harmless and asymptomatic reinfections do take place. That is, in fact, the very mechanism by which adaptive immunity is triggered.

    However, symptomatic reinfections are very rare. Like an army which adapts its response to the size and the progression of its enemy forces, adaptive immunity provides a specific, rapid and resource-optimised response. As such, reinfections are mostly asymptomatic and recovered patients are protected from severe disease.

    In fact, innocuous reinfections can play a positive public health role as continuous immune updates of the population. They can help a seamless and progressive adaptation to emerging new variants and strains. And indeed a recent study showed that couples with children were more frequently asymptomatic than couples without, most likely because children acted as natural and harmless immunisation vehicles. The likely reason high density countries all have very low death tolls is that they have asymptomatic reinfections that regularly and widely update the immunity of the population.

    On the variant fallacy

    As demonstrated by the low numbers of reinfections mentioned above, but also by multiple studies, so far variants have not escaped acquired immunity. Just as Americans can speak and interact seamlessly in England, unhindered by a few word variants, natural or vaccine-induced immunity is unhindered by variants, possibly more so than vaccine-induced immunity. There is ample evidence of the sophistication and breadth of the human immune system, and it is clear that its arsenal cannot be evaded by a few minor changes in the genes of the virus.

    Across the world (countries: Canada, Ecuador, Gabon, Germany, India, Singapore, Sweden, UK, USA, Tanzania, Zambia), multiple studies demonstrate high-levels of pre-existing cross-reactive T-cells and antibodies to SARS-CoV-2. In other words, many were already largely immune via other coronaviruses. This is the likely explanation for the unexpectedly high level of asymptomatics during the pandemic. More importantly, this demonstrates that even with large genetic differences, prior immunity to related coronaviruses is sufficient to avoid severe Covid. Therefore, it is quite evident [that] variants are not a concern for the general population who have already recovered.

    Tue, July 6, 2021, 6:28 AM

    A hair lice pill costing just £1.50 is an effective cure for Covid, according to new research. Ivermectin - which destroys nits - also kills the coronavirus and slashed death rates dramatically in a study of thousands of patients. Users were less likely to become infected and the medication also speeds up recovery. The report by Dr Pierre Kory, of Front-Line Covid-19 Critical Care in Washington DC, is the latest in a number of studies which have reported positive results for Ivermectin. He said: "Ivermectin should be globally and systematically deployed in the prevention and treatment of Covid-19." The prescription-only therapy, which also comes as a cream and costs as little as £1.50 - has been hailed as the key to ending the pandemic. The findings in The American Journal of Therapeutics are based on data pooled from across the world. Dr Kory said: "Meta-analyses based on 18 randomised controlled treatment trials have found large, statistically significant reductions in mortality and time to clinical recovery and viral clearance. "Furthermore, results report significantly reduced risks of contracting Covid-19 with the regular use of ivermectin." Earlier this year a study by Liverpool University suggested it cut the risk of death for hospitalised Covid patients by up to 80 per cent. In a trial in Egypt, 100 patients with mild symptoms were cleared of the virus within five days, on average, when they got the drug. For comparison, the figure stood at around 10 days for 100 patients who did not receive the drug. And in 100 patients battling severe symptoms they removed Covid within six days when they got the drug, on average, compared to 12 days for the 100 control patients. Similar results were also seen in a study carried out in Bangladesh. The studies commissioned by the World Health Organisation (WHO) were carried out mainly in developing countries. Dr Tess Lawrie (MBBCh, DFSRH, PhD), Director of The Evidence-Based Medicine Consultancy Ltd in Bath, Somerset, is also calling for the immediate rollout of Ivermectin as a Covid cure. She said: "There have been at least 10 reviews on the evidence of ivermectin and researchers around the world agree that it reduces Covid death substantially. "What people need to remember is that the vaccines are aimed at only preventing Covid, they do not treat Covid. "Doctors need the tools to treat their patients and ivermectin is the number one tool that every doctor needs in their tool kit." Dr Lawrie, a founder member of the British Ivermectin Recommendation Development (BIRD) Group, added: "For me, it's clear that Ivermectin is the key to ending the pandemic. "Its effects are so dramatic, and it's so safe, and it can be used at all stages of the disease, and it can be used for prevention, and we know it's safe for the elderly, and we know it's safe from the immunocompromised and we know it works against variants. "It's just common sense. Oh, I forgot, it's also very cheap." Ivermectin has been promoted as a Covid treatment across Latin America and in South Africa. Dr Kory said experiments show ivermectin combats SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes Covid, by hooking onto its 'spike protein' - dousing inflammation. He said: "Since 2012, a growing number of cellular studies have demonstrated Ivermectin has antiviral properties against an increasing number of viruses including influenza, Zika, HIV, Dengue and most importantly, SARS-CoV-2. "Insights into the mechanisms of action by which ivermectin both interferes with the entrance and replication of SARS-CoV-2 within human cells are mounting." However, some experts are sceptical - saying previous studies have generally been small or low quality. A further trial of British patients has been launched to test Ivermectin's efficacy. The therapy is being added to the UK's large scale PRINCIPLE Trial - for Covid patients at home who are at most risk of hospitalisation. Over 65s - and those aged 18 to 64 with underlying health conditions or shortness of breath - will be eligible. They will be given a three-day course of ivermectin and tracked for 28 days. Individuals will be enrolled within the initial 14 days of symptoms or a positive test. Joint chief investigator Prof Chris Butler, of the Primary Care Clinical Trials Unit at Oxford, said: "Ivermectin is readily available globally. "It has been in wide use for many other infectious conditions so it is a well known medicine with a good safety profile. "Because of the early promising results in some studies it is already being widely used to treat Covid-19 in several countries. "By including ivermectin in a large-scale trial like PRINCIPLE, we hope to generate robust evidence to determine how effective the treatment is against Covid-19, and whether there are benefits or harms associated with its use." It may even hold the key to conquering 'Long Covid' - a post-viral syndrome including constant fatigue, shortness of breath, 'brain fog' and joint and chest pain. A study of 33 patients in Peru found most symptoms cleared up after two doses with almost all cured after additional ones. Added Dr Kory: "Their experience suggests the need for controlled studies to better test efficacy in this vexing syndrome." Ivermectin was discovered in the 1970s and has fast become an essential medicine for a vast number of parasitic infections. It is branded as Stromectol, an oral tablet for scabies and Soolantra, a skin cream for rosacea and Sklice for treating head lice. The WHO has said vaccines alone will not be enough to end the pandemic. Effective treatments are equally important.

    A team of international scientists has recently identified ultrapotent anti-severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) antibodies from convalescent donors.
    The antibodies are capable of neutralizing a wide range of SARS-CoV-2 variants even at sub-nanomolar concentrations. In addition, the combinations of these antibodies reduce the risk of generating escape mutants in vitro. The study is published in the journal Science.

    Found this PDF by Dr Lee Merritt with information on where to obtain Ivermectin and HCQ, among others, such as vaccine remorse and supplements, on her site, Dr Lee Merritt. Unfortunately, it seems to be for the US only.

    The list of PDFs can be found here

    You can also buy horse Ivermectin for a few bucks at stores like Tractor Supply, that's what I've done. Note that Amazon reviews for products like these are full of testimonials of humans taking these products, for both COVID and for scabies.

    (I personally would not buy this on Amazon due to the possibility of getting counterfeit products, which seems common on Amazon.)
    That's what I ended up doing went to the local Vet and got a ~20mg/g dose for a 750kg horse... that's about 10 doses for a 75kg human...

    Dr. Sherri Tenpenny has mentioned similar info. To cover herself, she adds it’s not her medical advice, it’s just what others have shared.

    I could find quite a few brands of Ivermectin in China on the internet stores like Taobao and 1688. There is one for farm animals and many for pets (mostly mixed with another drug I forgot the name of). I bought a few bottles of 7mg tablets of pure Ivernectin used mainly for pigs as a precaution. There is almost no covid infections in China and therefore I am not taking it.

    Here in Belgium we can not buy Ivermectin without prescription (even not the one for animals). And doctors are not allowed to prescribe medication that will work against covid etc. When ordering it from another country the chances are super high it is held back at the customs ...
