Dr. Berkowitz forgot to mention::

"The FLCCC Alliance has always maintained that our protocols are a bridge to vaccines and a safety net for those who cannot or have not been vaccinated..."

Well done! Great News! The bridge is long finished and every US citizen above age 12 has easy access to those life saving vaccines now.

No need for any FLCCC protocols anymore.

It's that simple.

Uh you completely missed the entire point of the article…the patient comes first and there is not one size that fits all. Very obtuse on your part. As a professional in the financial field, I would lose my license if I made the same exact recommendation to all my clients. It is absolutely impossible that only one product would meet the complex needs of each and everyone of my clients.

YOUR LINK'S WORDS, not mine:The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) currently monitors hospitalizations and deaths, from any cause, among fully vaccinated individuals with COVID-19, but not breakthrough infections, which it stopped monitoring as of May 1. CDC presents this data in aggregate at the national level but not by state, and there is no single, public repository for data by state or data on breakthrough infections, since the CDC stopped monitoring them.

Exactly... that's why the Kaiser Family Foundation started monitoring and collecting data. 😉

You refer to KFF figures distinguishing the "not fully vaccinated" from the "fully vaccinated" and which go back to the beginning of the pandemic before anyone was vaccinated at all. So that 99 percent is to say the least misleading, especially if you think that "unvaccinated" includes anyone "not fully vaccinated" (less than 14 days after their second dose?) and lump in all the unvaccinated who died before there was a vaccine.

More relevant are Public Health England figures of those who died from the Delta variant from 1 Feb 2021 to 29 Aug 2021. The majority of those deaths (1091 of 1798 or 60.6 percent) were of people 14 plus days AFTER the second dose of the vaccine, and only 536 of 1798 or 29.8 percent were completely unvaccinated. See the death tally in table 5 near the bottom of page 22 of this UK government document, for "Deaths within 28 days of positive specimen date": https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/1014926/Technical_Briefing_22_21_09_02.pdf

I don't know what you're talking about. Either you are incapable of reading correctly or you just trying to get attention. Either way.... you asked for sources and I provided. The KFF tables didn't start at the beginning of the pandemic, which started early in 2020. KFF started monitoring when the vaccines became available. January 2021. You might want to consider new glasses and take a closer look before you post more nonsensical statements. KFF isn't misleading...but you are. And I don't follow UK studies... I observe data collected in the United States.

What's your next move? Digging up data from Bangladesh??? 😆

Jim, while the current COVID-19 vaccines provide protection from severe symptoms, their ability to reduce transmission fades rapidly and they are unable to provide herd immunity, no matter how many people are vaccinated. On 2021-08-10 Prof. Andrew Pollard gave evidence to the UK Parliament All-Party Group on Coronavirus. A transcript is at:

https://nutritionmatters.substack.com/p/vitamin-d-and-early-treatment-vs . He suggested that vaccination is a relatively safe pathway to acquiring the more robust and long-lasting immunity attained through natural infection: "So as long as you are vaccinated and are fortunate to get mild infection, then you are protected."

"We don’t have anything which will stop that transmission to other people. The one thing that vaccines might do - just like wearing masks and so on - they may slow the process down a bit about transmission. And the bit of evidence there is that people who have been vaccinated seem to be shedding for a slightly shorter period of time. That means there is a bit less opportunity for them to spread to someone else.

"So I think we are in a situation here with this current variant that herd immunity is not a possibility, because it still infects vaccinated individuals."

Prof. Pollard is not an anti-vaxxer. He is Director of the Oxford Vaccine Group, co-developers of the AstraZeneca adenovirus vector COVID-19 vaccine.

It seems that you, many politicians, and much of the public have bought into a fantasy vision of these vaccines being so effective that no other approaches are necessary or should even be contemplated. Yet the current vaccines are the 3rd best approach to suppressing COVID-19 transmission and severity, after vitamin D repletion and early treatment with a variety of drugs, but most importantly with calcifediol (25-hydroxyvitamin D) or bolus D3 to quickly raise 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels from typical 5 to 25ng/ml unsupplemented levels to at least the 50ng/ml the immune system needs to function properly.

The promotion of vaccines for influenza and COVID-19, instead of trying to raise everyone's 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels to what they should be (which would strongly suppress transmission and severity for both these diseases, as well has have numerous other health benefits) is a grave, global, egregious, failing of the great majority of physicians, immunologists, virologists, vaccinologists, epidemiologists and public health officials. Please read the research articles cited at: "What every MD, immunologist, virologist and epidemiologist should know about vitamin D and the immune system" https://vitamindstopscovid.info/05-mds/ .

The entire debate is based on misinformation.

However... this article isn't about the vaccines anyway.

It's a propaganda piece designed to sell IVM as a "miracle Cure" to gullibe readers....nothing else.

And even the FLCCC says the protocol was designed as a "bridge to vaccines".

A "bridge" is not a "alternative" to vaccination....😉

Jim, you and the numerous other people (physicians included) who believe so strongly in vaccines that you argue against and try to suppress the use of early treatments are driving this sort of medical atrocity: an experienced doctor treats his patients successfully with vitamin C, vitamin D, zinc, azithromycin, hydroxychloroquine, ivermectin, albuterol and a steroid inhalant Fluticasone propionate is sacked: https://westernstandardonline.com/2021/10/https-westernstandardonline-com-2021-10-watch-emergency-doctor-says-authorities-are-standing-in-the-way-of-life-saving-medications/

"Not even 24 hours after getting Ivermectin, two out of my three patients were almost completely better. They were out of bed walking around and all the crackles I heard in their lungs from the day before were gone. All it took was about 18 hours and one dose of Ivermectin."

Nagase said his third patient, a 95-year-old, stayed the same but "didn’t get any worse like she had done the night previous."

I followed the "IVM Saga" for over a year now my friend.

And on that one... I disagree with you. There were initially some promising observations when the original Covid strain showed up around the globe. However...the latest studies, especially now with Delta being the dominant strain, show very disappointing results. These are just facts...and I don't really rely on "miracle stories" or single "online doctors" who claim to know more than the overwhelming majority of medical professionals.

No...they are not all in the pocket of big pharma or trying to cover up a "miracle"... the majority simply relies on scientific data... not anecdotes.

Thank God!

So 230 MILLION subjects in an observational trial which essentially eliminated Covid from Uttar Pradesh isn't sufficient to prove the efficacy of ivermectin? Are you kidding me? Even the WHO praised India for its profound success. Yes, they neglected to state that 12 mg of ivermectin were in the "home medicine kits" but the Indian government clearly reported that it was included. In addition, the Indian Medical Association sanctioned the WHO for not recommending ivermectin which would have make it dramatically easier to acquire around the world. Currently many health ministries around the globe are not able to because of the position of the WHO.

You basically answered your own question "Mrs. Ph. D." 😉

"observational trial"??? If IVM was part of a "kit"...what does that proof in your humble "Ph.D. opinion"? The answer is: absolutely nothing. Because it could have been the same outcome if IVM was not part of the kit. I don't know what kind of Ph. D. you refer to in your title... but it is definitely not in the field of any science or medicine. That's a fact. 😆

They didn't "neglect" anything.... your "observational trial" argument is a bunch of unscientific hoopla....nothing else. If IVM was part of a "home kit" then neither you or I know if it worked.

Jim, I mentioned that the vaccines are protective against severe symptoms, but this needs to be qualified. This protection is either weak enough, or fades faster enough, in Israelis over the age of 60 that a 3rd booster injection was introduced on July 30th, for such double-vaccinated people who received their second injection over 5 months earlier.

As expected, the booster injection reduced the incidence of severe disease - at least in the short time surveyed after the booster. Table 2 of Bar-On et al. 2021: https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa2114255 shows that without the booster, the rate of severe disease was 64.27 per million person-days at risk.

This incidence of severe disease was judged by the Israeli authorities to be unacceptable. So vaccination is not the "end of story" as you wrote. It is an ongoing process of injections to cope with fading effectiveness not just regarding transmission, but also protection from severe disease. Israel is planning a further booster (2nd or 4th in total) already: https://www.precisionvaccinations.com/2021/09/12/israel-prepares-4th-booster-against-covid-19 .

In the current environment of most people having only a fraction of the 25-hydroxyvitamin D their immune system needs to function properly, and in which early treatments are not available (in part due to government action to suppress availability and discussion of them) the current vaccines do save lives. However, they are a third rate approach - and would still be even if they were as safe and effective as you and many other people think they are. You should read the research articles I cite at https://vitamindstopscovid.info/05-mds/ because if you don't understand the immune system's need for proper levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D, you have no proper basis for understanding how to suppress COVID-19 transmission and severe disease.

Robin, I agree 100% with your position about vitamin deficiencies and would take it even further. America not only has a Covid problem...it also has a food/nutrition/obesity problem. There are far too few media outlets reporting that fact. Bill Maher seems to be the only media celebrity who's not afraid to point out the "big elephant in the room".

Vitamin D deficiency was reported already in the early days of the Covid outbreak, to be a major player in the deaths of the elderly. I followed these developments from the start my friend... I even followed the FLCCC in the early days, because they did something noble back then. Trying to help & bridge... until vaccines are available. That was a great thing in my opinion. And I still advocate vitamins, proper diet, excercise, healthy lifestyle etc... as these things all promote well being and a strong base against any disease and significantly better outcomes in case of any viral infection (not just Covid). But despite all these facts... Covid vaccines are now widely available in the US and by far the best protection against hospitalization and death. That's the whole point. I even agree with your assessment that the Pfizer shot was too weak.... Pfizer even admits that now. But there were more severe side effects (mostly chills & fever) at the trials, that they decided to lower the dose of the MRNA substance. Moderna for example has 4 times the amount of MRNA in their vaccine and it has shown still to be 94% effective today...even against the Delta strain. But here is the deal.... they were all working at "Warp Speed" and tried to get a cure as quick as possible. Thank God.... they did. And the boosters can easily make up for the initially "too weak" dosage.

Unfortunately...the whole thing has been politicized by numerous organizations for not so noble reasons. And that's a crying shame....

Too many snake oil salesmen out there, spreading fear and misinformation about the vaccines.... just to make a profit of their gullible followers.

And that my friend is the real tragedy in this story.

Btw... if you're concerned about vaccine safety... you have options.

Several studies about the J&J shot just showed an excellent safety profile and solid Covid protection. https://is.gd/omjXeS

Hi Jim, Thanks for your reply. Please read the vitamin D research I cite, much if it is not known even to physicians who think they know all about vitamin D. I imagine that the Novavax protein-subunit vaccine would be less likely to cause trouble than the current mRNA and adenovirus vector vaccines, but it still only has the spike protein, and I am not sure to what extent it stimulates immune responses in the nasal mucosa, rather than in the arms where the current vaccines mainly have their effects.

The current vaccines program our cells (any cells - potentially anywhere in the body, including perhaps the endothelial cells which line capillaries where red blood cells have to bend in order to fit through) to sprout viral spike proteins on their cell membranes, for the express purpose of giving the adaptive immune system (antibodies and macrophages which destroy whatever the antibodies attach to) target practice. What could go wrong?

Like I posted before.... in you are concerned about the newer MRNA vaccines, you have a choice. (Read Link in above comment)

Adenovirus vector vaccines are in use for decades with a solidly proven safety profile.

So the MANY vaccinated folks getting Covid shouldn’t get treatment? Or people who according to the drug companies themselves should not get a vaccine, or those with religious or ethical objections to vaccines? 🤔

Expand full comment

If you are one of those unfortunate "immunocompromised" people and can't take the vaccine, I would not rely on the FLCCC protocol and highly suggest to talk to your doctor to discuss any options.

If you refuse vaccination out of religious reasons, you are percentage wise a very small group. And even then... I'd advise to make an appointment with your doctor instead of relying on some "online group" who's propagating a unauthorized drug as a "miracle treatment"....

Being religious doesn't necessarily mean to be stupid or to believe every BS "miracle" story.

That includes everyone who gets sick or has an adverse reaction before you are considered "fully-vaccinated" 14 days after your 2nd shot. So if you die 13 days after your 2nd shot, you are reported as an "unvaccinated" death. Funny how that works, huh?

Hey Jim... I was cured recently, with the FLCCC protocols. I'm very grateful for the help the FLCC. It seems that as time passes, more and more evidence shows that these Pfizer & Moderna jabs do not offer the protection that they advertised. Many vaccinated are falling ill, and others are experiencing dreadful complications. But... the Pfizer & Moderna jabs are not actually vaccines, because they do not contain a weakened or dead piece of the antigen within them, like all real vaccines do. Instead, they utilize synthesized mRNA, which is coated with a lipid-nanotech solution...so as to sneak the synth mRNA past our immune systems, which would otherwise destroy it. The Pfizer & Moderna jabs are patented as 'gene therapies'. They are not vaccines.

There are those who cannot be vaccinated, there are those who will not be vaccinated (this is still a free country), there are those for whom the vaccine is insufficient protection against that because of their inherent risk cannot afford to get infected (immunosuppressed, transplant recipients to name but 2), there are those 5% for whom the vaccine never took in the best of circumstances, now growing to 40% of those unlucky enough to have taken the Pfizer or J&J vaccine, there are those who had such a reaction that they cannot get the second or booster shots, there are all of us physicians and nurses and such who will in spite of being vaccinated will be asymptomatically infected and will pass it on to others AND who in the regular course of our job will pass the virus to those we care for many of whom cannot afford to get the virus.

There are billions yet to be vaccinated for whom the virus will get there before the vaccines do, whose countries can never afford to vaccinate them, whose countries are in such turmoil that vaccines will never be distriubted to them.

It is not as simple as the simpleton who has access to a search engine and thinks that makes him an all knowing and all wise authority.

Jim: The doctor was speaking to you! I don't think you got the message! We must change this type of thinking! In the link, the WHO will actually tell you this! There are many that CAN NOT take the vaccine, like my mother and many others! Like the good doctor was trying to get YOU to understand, IT IS NOT THAT SIMPLE and one size does not fit all. Please, open your mind and your heart and support the Ivermectin Protocol that the WHO just used in Uttar Pradesh (almost as populated as the entire USA) to help them become COVID FREE!!! And keep this in mind, IF the USA would embrace this OPTION, the NIH and CDC would change their "recommendation" on Ivermectin Protocol and the WHO, I'm sure, would follow which in turn would encourage the rest of the would to use it! WE are a rich country and WE ARE HOGGING the vaccine!!! It is STILL needed in many third world countries. However, until WE decide to SHARE, there IS STILL a need!!!

JIM! reconsider, please! This is a need that stretches around the world! Did you see the link??? A state in INDIA is saying they are Covid free. I have a niece that works with the WHO she knew about it. I have a dear friend that died in March. I tried to get her to take it as she had the beginnings of COPD. Everyone is not going to take it. Every one is just as stubborn as the other..... SOOOOO.... READ the article, PLEASE!!! If India can be Covid free and like my niece said, it's probably more than they are stating BUT it's headed toward being OVER!!! WE CAN DO IT TOO! I know it's frustrating but one way to settle it would be to prescribe it! It's safe and won't hurt anything and if it fails, we'll know it NOW and not next YEAR!!! You know this argument has been going since last MARCH, right? Are you not agreeable to put it out there and let it work or fail??? If not, then what? Be like Canada or Australia??? My mother is in her 80's. She is highly allergic and was told not to take it! WHAT is HER option??? If my mother lived in Australia, she would be removed from her home!!! And you know she would die!

Right now, I have one friend that is stuck in the VA in SC. On vacation, months after his last shot, he suddenly fell ill. He suffered memory loss but that is coming back, he was in kidney failure and both legs are full of MASSIVE blood clots. His doctor has no idea what's wrong with him or how to fix him! My friends parents were vaccinated back in the spring and since then, his father had 2 strokes, which may.. just be a stroke although he is healthy and very active making outdoor furniture. However, his mother has blood clots in her eyes.. behind her eyes.. all I know is she is in severe pain that took her to the ER last week and guess what.. they've not seen it and don't know what it is other than she has blood clots. My daughter last week was at work and when she got up to go to lunch, one leg was twice the size as the other. 31, works out.. and again.. the ER said, Ya! no blood clots, don't know what's going on. NO NO NO and NO. I WILL NOT TAKE IT. DOES IT SOUND like I will get it? That's what I'm saying. Let me ask you this, will you NOT take your boosters in the future??? Your support "for" is just as strong as my support "against"!!! WE ARE NOT GOING TO CHANGE each others minds. So... bring on the Ivermectin!!! Let it FAIL or damn .. what if it works??? like in UP... 1/3 of our military is about to risk court martial over not getting it!!! THIS SHIT HAS GOT TO END! I looked up some numbers yesterday. In Richmond, Va. they closed down schools and business last year. You know how many died??? A little over 300. And how many of them were actually Covid do the killing? 322. It's time to end this.

Hi Jim, They are jumping through hoops. The jabs are killing ppl, whereas ivermectin and supplements work and you don’t need to take the lottery of death. If you still think this is about your health, id be suspicious after 2 jabs. Israel is on 4. Going on 5. How many are you willing to take? 1 a month? Or eat better, use supplements and use Vitamins can change getting infected and not. Theres no need for something that doesn’t stop infection or transmission. It is not a vaccine.

Thank you so much for that sound and logical advice. This echos what I’ve been telling friends and family all along.

I’m a retired registered nurse and remember well the discovery of AIDS in the early 1980s. We didn’t know what it was and people were afraid to even touch an AIDS patient. The social stigma alone was terrible because it was unknown and people were scared.

But eventually scientific research figured it out and we all learned more about the disease and how to treat it.

Your words of courage and common sense should prevail but I’m afraid the hysteria is so loud nobody will hear you.

Not every patient can or should take the vaccine and alternative therapy needs to continue to be explored. Health care professionals need to take back healthcare.

Wow, all those 6 points he made in this.. during this covid-19 journey I lost total faith in the medical and research establishments in all these points. What totally finished me off was when, just out of curiosity a few days ago, I looked up about the vitamin C cure for sepsis that Dr Paul Marik had been mentioned in connection with discovering about 5 ,years ago. Well, my heart sank on finding myself watching a video of some conference from last year in which some, yes, you guessed some randomized control trial results about it were being discussed. I swear I could have been listening to a bunch of establishment pharma people talking about ivermectin! 4 years later and they were all saying still " more trials needed" And guess what? This sepsis cure was comprised of already in existence cheap and safe drugs!! Wouldn't ya know huh... If never hear the words ' randomized controlled trial' ever again, my life will be the better for it. I'm happy with so called ' anecdotal' survival evidence of patients as a proof of a drug working... that's the only evidence I'll look for in the efficacy of any drug I am ever told I need to take in future... And preferably find another solution altogether !

The vaccinated are carrying much higher concentrations of the virus in their oral/nasal passages. The vaccinated are experiencing break through infections. The efficacy of the vaccine is waning. Children under 12 need early treatments as well. Individuals with clotting disorders may be advised to not vaccinate. Those who have had the virus and have natural immunity may not want to vaccinate. The Elderly do not produce as robust antibodies post vaccination and may need early treatment. Early treatment is a necessary component in taking care of patients.

Thanks for highlighting the need for early treatment. Vitamin D3 supplementation to attain at least 50ng/ml 125nmol/L 25-hydroxyvitamin D is the most important approach to improving general health and to suppressing COVID-19 transmission and severity. This is the level the immune system needs for full strength innate and adaptive responses, and to reduce the risk of self-destructive, "cytokine storm", hyper-inflammatory dysregulated responses.

Please see the research articles cited in "What every MD, immunologist, virologist and epidemiologist should know about vitamin D and the immune system" https://vitamindstopscovid.info/05-mds/ . For an overview of vitamin D, the immune system and early treatment vs. vaccines with no early treatment:

Early treatment with melatonin, ivermectin and other approaches is also very important, and can be implemented much faster and with less medical staff involvement than vaccination: https://c19early.com/ . For those with low 25-hydroxyvitamin D - typically 5 to 25ng/ml without proper D3 supplementation or recent UV-B skin exposure - bolus D3 or best of all calcfediol (which is 25-hydroxyvitamin D) should be used to boost 25-hydroxyvitamin D safely over 50ng/ml. ~1mg calcifediol does this in 4 hours. https://www.linkedin.com/posts/sunilwimalawansa_multisystem-inflammatory-syndrome-mis-activity-6815294839769436160-99qJ/

Wow- after reading your discussions with others here, I suggest you get as many jabs as are available to you since they protect so well. Perhaps their deeper long term effects will become apparent. I have witnessed the harm done by this round of mNRA vaccines, as have many of the folks here, and so we cannot recommend them as you do. For young people and women, especially of low weight they prove especially damaging, affecting balance, vision, ovaries, really

too many issues to name here. I invite you to do some personal research as well. The big networks are feeding you pablum.

Even if you think vaccinations will keep you from serious covid-19, we still need ivermectin for early treatment.. there is no other drug available and the authorized early treatment is to ' do nothing'...

Agree 💯. As importantly, a need for more effective Prevention and boosting the immune system overall like the FLCCC Protocol, which continues to be highly relevant, for ANY variant. The vaccines can’t say that, breakthrough cases are continuing at a startling rate and antibodies wane far too soon. I’m glad our family opted for the Janssen jab but I won’t get another. It’s like investing in an unproven tool that breaks every few months. There are better options.

Does anyone know if we can mute, or block someone that replies on Substack? There are a couple of Branch Covidians in comments that I would like to block.

Since when is a Barack Obama program of any kind designed to help people? Everything else he did was to divide the country. It is government that is responsible for supporting the Wuhan Institute of Virology and gain of function projects are the reason we have this virus today, so why is this doctor asking for more government?

Let me educate for a moment....

Covid-19 didn't even exist when Barack Obama was our President.

It was the Donald J. Trump initiated program "Operation Warp Speed" which gave us these wonderful vaccines to end this horrible pandemic. Unfortunately, it's mostly his own followers now who refuse to get vaccinated and needlessly dying.

But you already knew that... you just have the need to add some politically charged bullshit into the discussion, right?

And that's what this is really all about... not the actual vaccine or government. 😉

Good day, buddy.

US government support for the WIV and gain of function research began during Obama's time in office. Those are facts.

Educate yourself before you post and don't just "parrot" the utter BS you've heard from "Rand Paul & Co"...

Don't give advice that you are not willing to follow. My sources have credible documentation, not the flip flops and lies of Fauci aqnd Co.
