Not every doctor gets resigned to COVID.

The whole medical system doesn't just stop because COVID wards are full.

Any competent system could have adjusted and isolated the overflow to its logical areas.

Furthermore ACE2 inhibitors like ivermectin or the now patented Pfizer whatever you call it and other effective treatments were available the whole time and only blocked for bs political reasons ( likely by regulatory capture by big pharma ).

CONCLUSIONS Treatment with ivermectin did not result in a lower incidence of medical admission to a hospital due to progression of Covid-19 or of prolonged emergency department observation among outpatients with an early diagnosis of Covid-19.

This study has flaws.

Namely, the ivermectin was only administered with patients after 7 days of symptomatic COVID infection.

Meanwhile Paxlovid, the patented ACE2 inhibitor is received as a proven treatment when administered early in infection.

7 days after symptoms appear is not early. The game is rigged my friend
