So a good friend lost her husband indirectly from the Rona last year (canceled his heart surgery consult and then he had a heart attack) and she's had a difficult time since. Run down, depressed, etc. She's always been super sensitive to different things but recently came down with this incessant itching everywhere. No real rash, just weird bumps and itching and scratching until she bleeds. Doctors were checking into possible auto-immune or allergies but leaning toward auto-immune. I told her to take some horse paste but she didn't want to (even though she has it in case she ever gets COVID). So then I gave her some Querciten. Two days later and it is 95% better. She's beside herself relieved. Could be a coincidence but IDK, she is definitely a believer.

Quercetin is an anti-parasitic, frens. Similar to Ivermectin in a sense (not quite as fast/effective though). Great story OP. 👍
Not sure where you got that quercetin is anti-parasitic. It does a lot but I haven't come across that.

I mean, it is a zinc ionophore and through that by its own nature it has indirect antiparasitic/antiviral properties.
It was posted here on a list with Ivermectin, Zinc, Elderberry, and others as such on here some time ago.
There is much we do not know, hence OP's surprise at the great reaction to it. MUCH we do not know. Germ theory, virus theory, parasite theory, etc, etc.
The two don't equate. Ivermectin, quercetin and green tea are zinc ionophores (transporters) but that doesn't mean green tea or quercetin have anti-parasitic properties. I have read that viruses are parasites so zinc prohibits viruses from replicating but the transporting of zinc is not the same as the zinc inhibiting replication. Quercetin has many great qualities on its' own so I think facts are important. There is a LOT of misinformation posted by well-meaning people and I sometimes cringe but it really is up to people to do their own research.
I think you are missing one crucial point of information. Most parasites also contain within them many other viruses, it's kind of like humans having good bacteria. Over time a symbiotic relationship has formed to the point of good bacteria being needed for optimal health. Parasites have a similar relationship with viruses. If you inhibit viral replication it throws the parasite ecosystem out of balance and they are not able to thrive.
