    Hey! Mate have to ask why these “protocols” are so important to you - now do they or do they not recommend intake of DHMO?

    They save lives. That’s very important to everyone.

    DHMO certainly does - even has research backing it but on the other hand it can be toxic……

    Do tell. Did you forget that I am a retired chemical engineer?

    Lols! I don’t take anyone’s word on what they claim are qualifications I judge people on how they post. Take Muchado and Betamax. They back what they say with citations which is SOP in academia. They post like they have post grad qualifications and have learnt, through this, how to support statements with evidence.

    Just because you post something doesn’t make it true. The lack of clinical trials for Dr. George Fareed's COVID-19 cocktail means there's no robust evidence to support its efficacy and safety. While he claims to have cured thousands of patients, this anecdotal evidence doesn't meet the scientific standards required to validate a treatment. Only a quack would claim 99.96 % success rate when he had no idea what the recovery rate would have been with no treatment or with anti-viral treatment.


    A "word salad" refers to a jumble of words or phrases that don't make logical sense or convey a coherent meaning. This term is often used to describe disorganized speech or writing that seems nonsensical or rambling. If it was my posts that you were referring to as “word salad”, that is a pathetic attempt to falsely label my posts which are totally logical and coherent which you can’t seem to post any rebuttals to at all.

    Compensating the failure of your water trap?

    I have supported everything I post. They have not supported the claims that the protocols don’t work.

    99.96% isn’t robust?

    Nope. Real world manner requires robust testing. Not some quacks making a buck off of the desperate and gullible.

    Serendipity is a little different than horseshittery.

    99.96% is a robust result.

    Penicillin is serendipity?

    Dr. George Fareed's claim of a 99.96% success rate with his COVID-19 cocktail is based on his clinical experience and observations. His results are not ‘robust’ because they haven’t been validated by large-scale, peer-reviewed clinical trials. Fareed’s anecdotal evidence suggests high efficacy, but without rigorous testing, it's difficult to determine the true success rate and to generalize the results to a broader population. This is especially true when most of the population is going to survive getting covid without any treatments other than rest, cough medicine, and pain killers.

    Those who died after contracting covid had pre-existing health conditions, such as diabetes, heart disease, obesity, and chronic respiratory diseases which made them more vulnerable to severe outcomes from Covid-19. These pre-existing conditions can weaken the immune system, making it harder for the body to fight off infections. Covid-19 can actually exacerbate many of these underlying conditions, leading to complications and higher risk of death. Dr Fruitloop’s covid cocktail did nothing to inhibit the virus, nor did have any effect on the pre-existing health conditions. It was useless.

    His results were indeed serendipitous. The discovery of penicillin is often sited as one of the most famous examples of serendipity in science. Penicillin was the world’s first antibiotic and revolutionized the treatment of bacterial infections. There is no comparison between Fleming’s discovery of penicillin and the covid cocktail. Fareed’s covid cocktail wasn’t exactly a serendipitous discovery like penicillin. It was a deliberate combination of existing medications. Unfortunately, there is no evidence that demonstrates that the cocktail itself had any effect. It remains unvalidated and reports of its success are anecdotal. He might have gotten the same results if he had mixed Tylenol (pain relief), dextromethorphan (for cough symptoms), Sudafed (decongestant), Guaifenesin (expectorant), throat lozenges, and plenty of fluids.

    The point is always that Dr Fareed treated people early in the course of their illness. Most people get better after contracting covid without any special cocktails. Without controlled clinical trials, you can’t definitively attribute improvement solely to his cocktail. Other factors play a role in recovery — extent and type of co-existing illnesses, natural recovery, supportive care, age, gender, nutritional status, living environment, genetic makeup, and access to healthcare. So, no, Dr Fareed is not some life-saving superman. He is an arrogant fruitloop who has made a boatload of cash from a protocol that does little to nothing. Maybe Trump should assign him to the Ministry of Quackery.

    Thousands of patients who were sick and came to the doctor were successfully treated with a 99.96% survival rate. Why was this suppressed? As you should know it is unethical to deny a successful treatment protocol to a sick patient in a RCT.

    You are claiming that the protocols were not suppressed?

    Penicillin was the result of a process and not a RCT.
