Why is India having such a bad time?

[admin]

Look at the headlines regarding India:
https://duckduckgo.com/?q=india+rising+covid+deaths&t=hc&va=u&ia=web
Looks pretty bad, and with an oxygen shortage to boot.
Some folks here in the West see that and think "Gee, I'm glad I live in a "wealthy" first world country like the U.S. or the U.K. and not in a poor country like India!"
But how does perception VS reality actually stack up in terms of deaths per 100,000 citizens between India and the U.S. or the U.K. thanks to mass ignorance to early treatment that resulted from Google/YouTube, Facebook and other social and legacy media censorship-of-truth-driven mass homicide/genocide from COVID that's been going on in the U.S. and U.K. as of this writing?
India    16.55
U.S.   176.24 (as of May 6th more than 10 times the death rate of India)
U.K.   191.22 (more than 11 times)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/COVID-19_pandemic_death_rates_by_country

So the U.S. or the U.K., thanks to Big Pharma and the NIH, have been rendered to be among the most COVID dangerous countries a person can live in (at least one that chooses to remain ignorant to early treatment options up until they come down with COVID).

And it looks like it will be a while before India catches up (like never), particularly since there still remains physician abject ignorance, stupidity (or worse) in terms of early treatment, in the U.S. and U.K.

Any surprise India is having a worse time than they should be, with the new outbreak, since it seems so many are desperate to be treated with Remdesivir? I thought the people of India had better sense than that.

[edit add 6-28-21] "A large study sponsored by the World Health Organization found that remdesivir doesn’t help hospitalized patients with COVID-19 survive and doesn’t even shorten the recovery time of those who do survive."

[Edit add on 5-28]: India's COVID spike was the result of political changes and false propaganda against ivermectin and early treatment.

"The Drug that Cracked COVID - May 01, 2021 01:43PM ● By Michael Capuzzo"
"He [Dr. Pierre Kory] also posted an interview with a prominent surgeon and hospital owner in Visakhapatnam, India, who treats many COVID-19 patients in the tragic current “COVID tsunami,” and passed on the hopeful news that the All India Institute of Medical Sciences in New Delhi has recently approved Ivermectin for early and home treatment, “a game changer for India and for the world,” the surgeon said. Ivermectin “saved India in 2020 after it got official permission in Uttar Pradesh in August followed by many other states,” he wrote, but starting in January with many political changes, it “has been getting BAD propaganda by big pharma and big scientists,” and many doctors stopped using it, collapsing prevention and home treatment and seeding the crisis of overloaded hospitals and many needless deaths." [end edit add]

Who could construe this as other than crimes against humanity perpetrated for Big Pharma profit, directly resulting in the deaths of tens or hundreds of thousands of people in India, let alone millions around the world since spring of 2020 that died needlessly?

So if they had been treating as soon as they became symptomatic with ivermectin or HCQ, instead of waiting to be hospitalized to go on Remdesivir - that the WHO study showed did not result in a statistically significant reduction in mortality or even shorten hospital stay (after which study the WHO issued a conditional recommendation AGAINST the use of Remdesivir) - might India have had enough oxygen on hand?

The good news is that it looks like things are calming down in India. I'm guessing they got back to their HCQ and ivermecting roots of 2020.

And just a half hour after posting the prior post I was shown this from the American Thinker:

Number of COVID cases in Delhi crashes after mass distribution of ivermectin
By Thomas Lifson

India has been suffering horrendously from COVID of late, and the complete death toll may never be known. But in the capital city of Delhi, mass distribution of ivermectin began and the results have been stunning.

 Stephen McIntyre of Climate Audit posted a Twitter thread that includes this remarkable graph:

    accodnig to online data, Delhi cases have gone from 24K daily at end of April to 1491 yesterday. Whether it's due to ivermectin or just down phase of Gompertz curve, it's huge and gratifying good news that's mostly unreported in doomcasting media. pic.twitter.com/wBpEtGqHM8

This result is consistent with the results of mass distribution of ivermectin in Mexico City, as reported by James V. DeLong on these pages on May 21, 2021:



Yet, most doctors in this country refuse to prescribe ivermectin, and most hospitals in this country refuse to administer it even to seriously ill COVID patients, citing the lack of double-blind studies – which are expensive and time consuming and which yield no big profits for anyone since ivermectin is a generic drug with no patent protection.

A Buffalo, NY woman had to sue in order to receive ivermectin therapy while hospitalized, forced to bear considerable legal fees. After a judge ordered that she receive it, she recovered and left the hospital.

In poorer countries, where vaccines are unavailable to too expensive for mass use, they have been forced to resort to ivermectin. This has had the effect of conducting a mass experiment (albeit not with the double-blind, randomized, controlled conditions that “gold standard” medical research requires. Maybe that will enable the ivermectin deniers to maintain their posture of self-righteousness.

Note that the emergency use authorization under which the experimental mRNA vaccines have been approved for mass use would not be given if there were an accepted effective alternative therapy. Billions of dollars flowing into the hands of vaccine makers would not have happened.

Which of course looks the same as 8 Peruvian states that did mass distribution of ivermectin last summer:

Yet people will still choose to remain ignorant enough to use Google for internet searches, and allow themselves to be propagandized by garbage publications like Politico:
https://www.covid-19forum.org/index.php?topic=523.msg899#msg899
It's one thing for Merck to lie about their own time-tested 35-year-old drug and not care about who gets killed in the process to advance corporate profits, but for a reporter like that in Politico to parrot lies like Merk's in light of well over a year of proof of the efficacy of ivermectin, is the result of sheer stupidity.
