Many folks around the world will run into problems with getting IVM and HCQ. Focus on immune system health first, it's what you can do easily.
Look for zinc ionophores and take them with zinc. Foods that are traditionally recommended for immune system health like onions and ginger all have zinc ionophones to help move zinc ions into your cell where it can be put to good use. Our forefathers knew about such foods that are good for your immune systems. I drink matcha green tea every day for the EGCG and antioxidants etc.
A fellow pede posted a link here on GAW yesterday about Vitamin D. Make sure your levels are adequate (get some sunlight too!) because it correlates very well with reduced adverse Wuhan flu effects, very likely suppressing the cytokine storm that's often very bad for your lung function (especially if you end up in a hospital where the crazies will try very hard to doctor you to death.)
I can’t speak for everyone’s experience, but I will speak for mine.
I took ivermectin as soon as I felt symptoms. I didn’t get a warning; it just hit me like a truck one day. I went for a run the day before, no issue. Day 1 I got sidelined with a 102 degree fever, nasty body aches, excessive thirst.
Took 500mg quercetin, IVM, C, D, zinc day 1 according to Zelenko, and Day 2. By Day 2 my lymph nodes were boulders. I couldn’t get the heart palpitations to stop.
I have my blood drawn regularly. My D level has been 70+ for months due to supplementation.
I was taking vive organic ginger + turmeric shots. I even was using Xlear to try to keep the viral load down pre-infection. Nada. Although I think it’s helped my parents not get as bad.
I still needed the antibodies. And I’m only 27.
I still don’t think the vaccine is a good idea or that masks do anything productive for healthy people. But this thing does not joke around if you draw the short straw.
I am curious if I got royally screwed by drinking immune-boosting tea with elderberry in it. There’s some anecdotal evidence it makes it worse, not better.
I am also open to the possibility my immune system over-compensated, and tried to get COVID out of me as quickly as possible but screwed itself over in the process. My chest x-ray was clear and my d-dimer and CRP levels were normal, but my heart rate was way too tachy with that fever.
Yeah, it's no joke for some folks. Your experience is kinda like a cytokine storm, scary. I can only speak for myself, and personally, I like to think that gardening and working with soil, dirt and grime makes for a better-adjusted immune system for myself. I try to eschew ultra-clean modern living and conveniences. But I'm not a runner, so maybe I stress my body less. It's a problem that needs looking into -- training well-behaved immune systems in modern living.
Gardening is a great way to train your microbiome, as long as you avoid Lyme disease. Hiking and nature therapy are incredible for boosting the immune system and helping with inflammation. Our diets also need to be improved across the board.
Over-sanitizing can also be an issue, but we don’t want to go too far in the other direction either. It’s a tough balance. There was another man posting here a couple of days ago saying he and his wife are marathoners/weight lifters and COVID kicked their asses, too. So I’m wondering if it’s a matter of needing to be in the sweet spot of “health” and not too taxed. I may have been fine if I hadn’t worked out the previous day.
The last thing that should be happening, regardless of pathology, is this complete lack of research into and availability of therapeutics. It’s downright criminal.
Good arguments. For myself, I generally want to avoid the trap of "army recruit flu" that often rampages through training camps. I conceptualize all of that as stress on the body (and the immune system as part of the body's systems.)
Also, for older people in China, tradition is to go for low-intensity exercises like Tai Chi. Keeping fit via high intensity workouts is one potential problem with Western cultures and expectations. But global marketing is surely pushing high intensity workouts very hard because they dovetail with the kinds of perfection we see in movies and the media. The balancing act of low and high intensity exercises and how much or for how long is more difficult for older people.

Thanks for your story.
