Can any MP ask the government why early treatment kits to s…

There could even be competing kits, & the decision which to take could be left to doctors & patients, as happens with most medicines. The problem is that there is not one of these kits available cheaply & prescription free anywhere in the West.

Doxycycline, Ivermectin, Azithromycin, Hydroxychloroquine, Zinc, Vitamin D, Vitamin C, omega-3s, all approved as safe drugs decades ago. This is clearly not an issue of safety. It should be left to a doctor's experience & judgement whether they are effective or not, not academia.

A GP could simply state on his website: of all the kits I recommend Kit Z, then Kit Y etc. No need to wait hours for consultations, as soon as the symptoms are clear the self administered treatment begins, and thousands of lives are saved, as well as hospitals remain underwhelmed

There is no need to go to ER or ICU if people can buy early treatment kits from pharmacies. There is no need for any hospital to be overwhelmed. This problem could be resolved in days. There is simply no political will to save lives as it means to go against Big Pharma profits.

If it works in India, it can work everywhere else. The real question is do our politicians really want to save lives, or are they personally scared about the backlash from the Big Pharma lobby against saving lives cheaply & effectively? Recovery means immunity to severe Covid19.

Immunity against severe Covid19 means no need for vaccination. Acknowledgement that effective treatments exist means that vaccines are no longer emergency authorised drugs but need proper testing. The kit drugs are already tested & safe so in advantage over vaccines.

The pandemic would be over before the vaccines receive proper testing, & people willing to take them would be fewer. The early home kits would save thousands if not millions, the hospitals would not be overwhelmed. The solution is right here but the profit is not.

With early treatment home kits you sell at minimal profit to those who get the disease, which could be only 10% in any locality in total, with the vaccines you charge exorbitant amounts to public via governments & target 70% of the population, but its slow & slowness kills.

The profit interests of Big Pharma are mutually exclusive to the interest in saving lives whenever there is a fast evolving pandemic & the idea of vaccines is rolled out. They are by definition the wrong solution, as they are too slow. Early treatment is the right solution.

If the politician who represents you says they are interested in saving lives, please ask them to put pressure on government ministers to authorise early home treatment kits & make them available cheaply in pharmacies. This is how lives & social cohesion (no lockdowns) are saved.
