Is Aspirin The New Horse Dewormer?

Oh neigh you didn't...

Authored by Brian C. Joondeph, MD: Aspirin is one of those drugs that has been around forever. It is commonly used as a pain reliever, anti-inflammatory, and blood thinner. Surprisingly it may also have benefits in treating COVID.

A paper in Anesthesia and Analgesia published last spring titled, “Aspirin use is associated with decreased mechanical ventilation, intensive care unit admission, and in-hospital mortality in hospitalized patients with coronavirus disease 2019.”

This was a retrospective, observational study of adult patients admitted to multiple hospitals in the U.S. between March and July 2020, in the early days of COVID. The primary outcome addressed by the researchers from George Washington University was the need for mechanical ventilation, which then, and still now, carries an extremely high chance of never leaving the ICU alive.

This was not a gold standard randomized prospective clinical trial. That would not be feasible in this situation since study patients were already hospitalized and critically ill. Remember in the early days, one needed to be extremely ill before even being admitted to the hospital rather than being sent home until sick enough to return and go straight to the ICU.

But the results were impressive. As reported last week by the Jerusalem Post,

Jewish Lawmaker Regrets Ethnic Cleansing Of Indigenous Gentiles In Jew Occupied Palestine Was Not Completed

Plenty of genocidal Jewish partisans deny or explain away the Nakba – the ethnic cleansing of hundreds of thousands of Palestinians c.1948 – but Jewish political leader Bezalel Smotrich openly admits it, and wishes it had gone further.

By Michael F. Brown: Bezalel Smotrich, a Jewish lawmaker, has admitted what any serious historian, and every Palestinian, already knows: The ethnic cleansing of 800,000 Palestinians by Jewish Zionist militias before and after Israel was established in 1948 is undeniable. After the state’s establishment in May 1948, the Jewish military itself took part in the expulsion.

“You’re here by mistake, it’s a mistake that Ben-Gurion didn’t finish the job and didn’t throw you out in 1948,” Smotrich, who heads the Religious Zionist Party, yelled at Palestinian members of the Knesset, Israel’s parliament on Wednesday.

Death By Covid Vaccine: Meme King Colin Powell Was Fully Vaccinated Then He Died Of Covid-19 Complications

The family of the former US secretary of state and chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff wrote on his Facebook page announcing Colin Powell's passing on Monday.

Sputnik: General Colin L. Powell passed away due to complications from COVID-19 at the Walter Reed National Medical Center, according to the statement.

"We have lost a remarkable and loving husband, father, grandfather and a great American", the family wrote.

According to the post, Powell was fully vaccinated.

The first Black US secretary of state, Powell had a remarkable career path, having served as the first Black national security adviser during the end of Ronald Reagan's presidency and the youngest and first African American chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff under President George H.W. Bush.

Powell enjoyed public approval and popularity, having been considered as a strong candidate to become the first Black president of the United States.

Female Writer Who Won World's Biggest Literary Prize Turns Out To Be Three Men

An anonymous writer who has been likened to Italy's pseudonymous Ellena Ferrante was just awarded a €1MM ($1.16MM dollars) literary prize for her dazzling work as a groundbreaking female author. There's only one minor clarification though: she's a he.

By Tyler Durden: Well, she's actually three men. According to the FT, Carmen Mola, an author who until now has been presented as a female university professor writing under a pen name because of her desire for anonymity (something nobody would question since progressive critics would simply assume she's doing this to protect herself from online hate speech), revealed her true identity to the world when the main prize was awarded in the presence of the Spanish King.

When the writer's name was called three men walked to the podium.

CNN Accidentally Allows Someone To Tell The Truth On Air

Less than a week after CNN scrambled to do damage control when their chief medical correspondent was wrecked by Joe Rogan over Ivermectin lies, the network may have another fire to put out...

By Tyler Durden: Indeed, just days after anchor Don Lemon tried to 'networksplain' Rogan's argument, host Brian Stelter made the mistake of allowing former NYT Editor Bari Weiss on air to discuss examples of why the world has gone mad.

Stelter's first mistake, of course, was having Weiss on his show.

His second mistake was assuming she didn't have receipts when she said the world has gone mad.

"Where can I start? Well, when you have the chief reporter on the beat of COVID for The New York Times talking about how questioning or pursuing the question of the lab leak is racist, the world has gone mad.

When you're not able to say out loud and in public there are differences between men and women, the world has gone mad.
