I asked for aspiration at my local Walmart. The tech said she did not know how but went and got the Pharmacist who did. The Pharmacist took the request Seriously and turned it in to a teaching moment and taught the tech how to do it. No ridicule of the client whatsoever. And at Walmart in the Appalachian mountains in US. !! Thank Dr Campbell for your excellent video content.
I live in Oklahoma. Our attorney general is trying to make sure doctors aren't penalized for treating their patients as individuals with specific needs with the best medical practices and drugs without the government's interference
Our lives are the testimony, we are the witness. I have worked for the injured and I know these mandates can cause serious damage because I've seen it on a daily basis. Praying for the Attorney General and everyone worldwide.
@@olgahurley8731 that works great except when healthcare workers aren't over worked (they always are under time pressure at least part of the time) . Drug dispensers often catch interaction problems and allergic prescriptions at point of sale. Then there are doctors pushing drugs from pharma company reps ( they aren't all as pure as the driven snow) . Then there are pill pusher docs (they get extra business from pill heads) . All of this nonsense shows up in the courts but only represents about 1% of the abuses out there. Oklahoma only wanted to clear tort cases out of their system. That's why they passed tort reform . Not for the benefit of the people but for the benefit of corporations and businesses. It's called Corporatism and that's Fascism. Read Mussolini's "The Doctrine of Fascism". Then get a clue and stop cheering on the propaganda of fascists. They own the country now not us.
The other 49 US States Attorneys MUST follow suit or they should be rendered illegitimate. Thank you Dr. John Campbell for staying on the case! You are one of my Covid Heroes! -From a retired US physician & public health practitioner 🇺🇸
Dr Campbell, In Brazil it was not protocol to perform aspiration during vaccine application, but thanks to you, I asked for it and the nurse did it without any trouble. Thank you (from Brazil)
I have an excellent GP, who told me last year that if I choose to be treated early with an IVM prescription then he would prescribe it. When I mentioned that the big pharmacies in our area have said they'd refuse to fill IVM scrips, my GP said that if that happens they'll never get another prescription from him. Good man.
My Dr. Told the pharmacist to do their job which if filling her prescriptions and she'll do her job by taking care of her patient. I love my doctor touche to her.
@Michael Rogers are you serious? There is a meta-analysis with over 70 studies last time I checked. The signal is very strong that it is helpful when used early.
@Michael Rogers If you don't believe it will help you-don't request your doctor to prescribe it for you. If others think it will work and their doctors agree, they should be allowed to try it. It has a long safety record- unlike the vaccines which have no long term safety record.
As a nurse I. Oklahoma, I can say one absolutely prevalent issue is not vax vs anti vax but rational thought, alternative treatments and respect for individual choice. Respect for physicians and an open dialogue is imperative. Thank you sir for another informative piece. Take care
Oklahoma is a state where physicians can still practice freely and have independent practices without being connected to a hospital or insurance company. During the hydro chloroquine debate early in the pandemic the CDC tried to stop physicians from prescribing it for off-label use. Pharmacists were put in the position to question physicians of prescribing but eventually was proven the decision lies in the hand of the physician.
Anywhere in the US, not just in Oklahoma, "physicians can still practice freely and have independent practices without being connected to a hospital or insurance company." That does mean, however, that they cannot admit patients to the hospital (if they don't have admitting privileges), and in the office will not get paid by the patient's insurance company (if they are not contracted with any insurance company). That means that if any of their regular patients are hospitalized, the doctors have to turn over care to someone else. And if an insured patient comes to see them in the office, the patient is responsible for the full fee.
@@besoamy1 Well, no, if your health insurance blocked your treatment, then it was not politicians who were responsible. It was insurance executives with their big salaries and huge equity holdings. They in turn assigned responsibility for treatment decisions to their "utilization managers." Practicing physicians have to argue with those UM people all the time.
@@jimpoole6037 You ask "why no studies." Yes, there have been plenty of studies that can be accessed on line and elsewhere. If you had kept up with your CME, you would know that drugs like HCQ and IVM have been looked at extensively and the evidence supporting their use is flimsy at best. Just in recent months, there have been 3 studies published from Malaysia, Colombia and Argentina, none of which could demonstrate significant benefit from IVM in Covid infections.
Dear dr John, thanks for all the work you have done through the last few years to bring sense to a difficult situation. I’m told I don’t have too much time left before I meet the Lord, so I just wanted to say thank you .
I hope you won’t be in pain before you leave your earthly body to go & meet our Heavenly Father, our Lord & Savior 🙏🏼❣️ God bless you & your family ❤️❣️ 😇🙏🏼
A few decades ago, before the internet, I went to see a doctor, who was relatively new in town. I can't remember why I went to see him but I asked a question about something or other and he told me he didn't know. He then got some books and said " let's have look and see if it's mentioned in here". All I will say is, 40 years later and living on a different continent, I still get hold of him if I have a problem.
I've seen a lot of doctors in my time, but have never heard those three words from any of them, even the most honest, even when I could see that they didn't know.
I am very fortunate in my GP. He has at least a couple times said he didn’t know… once when I was confused by a specialist’s opinion. He read the notes and was at a loss as to how to clarify for me. Bless him.
A good reminder that Doctors should be allowed to prescribe FDA-approved meds and not be dictated to by any other authority. As my Doctor once told me, " in the 30 years I've been practicing, not once did I contact the CDC, the FDA, or hospital administrator, to seek advice on any treatment, for any disease. They're not qualified to do so and why they are now interfering is not only wrong, but dangerous."
Sure. When did your doctor tell you all this, yesterday? Because that is a lot to remember. Actually the CDC, and FDA are qualified to proscribe certain medications for certain conditions and approve them for others. Many of the scientists in those agencies are also licensed physicians who actually see patients. Really- I know it sounds like these bureaucrats couldn't have the time or any interest in treating people, but most do.
And here's a reminder that the whole world isn't the USA, and vice versa. The rest of the world does things differently. Here, (UK), doctors are allowed to prescribe drugs approved for those conditions.
@@soupernutt9508 they are not qualified to prescribe medicine or treatments to another doctor’s patients and thus they shouldn’t interfere in that way. Their role is necessarily limited and these boundaries need to be more implicitly restrictive and otherwise tightened up using new legislation. This is a problem with the entire paradigm of the big government left, it’s all well and good until the government is corrupt, as is ours (without question). That’s why “stay in your lane” checks and balances are crucial whenever considering expanding the role and power of government no matter how noble the cause. Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely. This is not a new idea and will be as true 4000 years from now as it was in Ancient Egypt.
@@bryanbenaway5411 They (the agencies) are qualified to proscribe treatments for certain conditions and to approve them for others. It's important to have regulators, because Doctors are fallible, and Big Pharma... you know.
Every time I watch one of Dr. Campbell's videos, I learn so much. I appreciate all the time you spend preparing your presentations. Your contributions to society are so valuable. Thank you.
Buying my own stash of Ivermectin for my family over the past year cost my family over $500 out of pocket because my GP was not allowed to prescribe it. I couldn't use my medical insurance. I no longer trust Government after everything you have taught me. Thank you for opening my eyes.
Thank you Dr. Campbell for pointing these issues out. I took Ivermectin which was prescribed by my doctor. Seemed like he gave me the human version that has been used for almost 50 years because he could fairly easily see that I was a human and not a horse. I got better in about 3 days.
Your doctor knew that you did not have a serious case of Covid and that you would most likely be better in a few days, he gave it to you to shut you up.
This is as it should be! The expert (the doctor) is again the person who is in charge of prescribing drugs (in Oklahoma). This also applies to off-label use. Very glad you are sharing this information.
I agree, It is up to the doctor. Sadly, here in Canada, doctors have been losing and are threatened to lose thier licence if they prescribe off label. It is limited to only certain drugs, in this case Ivermectin.
So, then, I presume you strongly oppose the legal actions by patients or their families demanding that doctors prescribe some specific treatment, contrary to their professional judgment?
But anyone who prescribes ivermectin for COVID is not acting as an expert. At best, they're the doctor that prescribes antibiotics for the flu: it's a placebo that makes the patient think they're treating something and getting them out of the doctor's hair for a while.
I know people who got nothing and they are walking around today. Anecdotal evidence is the reason people are dying from curable diseases all over the world. A sample of one has no analytical value at all.
not exactly ground-breaking stuff, perhaps. My whole family, less 1, has had Omicron - prescribed NOTHING, not even a multivitamin, and they're all fine. But I can't speak for those who are stuck in a time warp to the year 2020
As a retired nurse, I was taught to aspirate before intramuscular injections. It was automatic to do it. And getting blood back was a rare occurrence but was a reinforcement of why aspiration was important. I have heard that some pharmacies will not fill prescriptions for Ivermectin
As an owner of pharmacies, the issue we have run into is that insurance companies are coming back after our claims on Ivermectin and others for "off label unapproved use." What we have had to start doing is offering to fill the patients prescriptions for said meds on a cash only basis, as we can't afford the DIR fees, loss of star ratings, and take backs by insurance companies coming from processing of the aforementioned. We are happy to fill them and have seen great success in our area with a treatment regiment including Ivermectin, but unfortunately major companies and the government are doing all the can to get in the way of alternative treatment options.
@Michael Rogers Not to mention the fact that Japan has enabled doctors to prescribe IVM to their patients due to corroborating evidence coming out of Africa (areas using IVM for parasites also happen to have low covid case and death rates). You’re so blinded by mass formation psychosis it would be hilarious if it weren’t so sad.
3:03 "Nurse Practitioner". FYI for those that do not know this term, a Nurse Practitioner is a nurse that has achieved at least a Master Degrees or PhD + specialised training, and can be defined as... having more authority than Registered Nurses and have similar responsibilities to that of a doctor. They can serve as a primary care or specialty care providers and typically focus their care on a specific population such as families, children, or the elderly. As clinicians, they focus on health promotion and disease prevention in their patients.
And in MANY states Nurse Practitioners (with education and training requirements) practice independently just as a primary physician. They are held to the same legal medical standards as medical doctors. Many focus on undeserved communities and prevention.
It's a shame I've seen Dr Campbell disparaged as "Not a Doctor" on some RU-vid channels. This is because some people have their head up their asses for political reasons. BTW, let any judgemental busybodies know I'm fully vaxed less they ASSume.
Thank you from Oklahoma for all your videos to help shine the light of sanity during these times. I suspect the Attorney Generals message was also pointed at some pharmacies that have denied filling certain prescriptions.
As an Oklahoman I applaud Attorney General John O’Conner for his correct assessment of the law. Thank you for recognizing our Attorney General for the good work he is doing.
I had some nimrod argue against aspirating the needle because something bad might happen. He said that in poor countries, they often use the same syringe over and over. If you pull blood or interstitial fluid into that syringe and then don't sterilize it properly between patients, you can spread blood borne infections. I was like, "okay. But how does this apply to the western world, where no syringe is used more than once even for the same patient, let alone between patients?"
OMG! How do they know they are not injecting into a blood vessel! Those are some cockamamie responses...makes u wonder if they were specifically told not to draw back...and that would make me wonder WHY?????
I have never seen so much dishonesty from health care providers in my life as I am seeing now. Even with my primary care physician who has been my doctor 30+ years. During a time when we need health care providers, they are daily letting us down and shown they can't be trusted. It is a sad state we are in.
Have you ever considered that you might be mistaken about what is dishonesty? Why is your physician of 30 years suddenly unreliable? Maybe you have been misinformed about the truth?
I had to sit on a chair outside in the parking lot of my clinic of 40 years, simply because I was unvaxxed. I was there to obtain routine check-up, not because I was unwell or had any kind of co-vid like symptoms. I was sitting there like a shag on a rock.....everyone walking past me and staring. I guess I was getting very ‘personalised’ health service though....a whole parking lot to myself to keep me safe!
Absolutely, and it's scary as well as disappointing. (🇨🇦) I've been seeing the same doctor 2x a month for over 10 years (Several serious health issues due to an MVA) So I started to question the mandates etc for me, and after telling me he'd be fired if he didn't "go along with the rules" basically, he fired ME for asking questions!?! I can't trust any Dr anymore.
@@veronicaspencelocke2003 I truly feel for you & I’m so sorry 😢… Governments shouldn’t be involved in healthcare! & healthcare should be for EVERYONE & it shouldn’t have to do with if you’re taken the jab or not 😞… 🙏🏼❤️
My wife and I had exactly the same response. Also, at all three vaccinations, never once did they swab the area to be injected. This surprised me. I questioned both the lack of swabbing and the non-aspirating. The responses were basically 'we are doing what we were told to do'. I certainly got the feeling that these people were volunteers that were probably trained as bricklayers.
@@reeftanks3525 Studies have shown bacterial" on skin less likely to be pathological and swabbing with alcohol kills these off and allows more virulent bacteria to cause localized infection. Seen that as a child immunized with hep B developed abscess at injection site after swabbed [as recalled by parents] I have never seen infection at vaccination site in my 30 years of practice as a GP site where site hasn't been swabbed which is current practice in Australia since 90s PS i aspirate
I would report those institutions to the boards of medicine and the board of health and human services. The skin is there to stop germs from entering the body and any piercing allows it a gateway which is why swabbing it is mandatory as a health professional.
Canadian here, I asked a nurse at the CHUM if aspiration was something she knew about, she told me she knows about it but that is something that's generaly not performed anymore because most injections are done in the deltoid, and, the probability to inject in a vein in that area is extremly unlikely (shout out to her for answering truthfully). I get the idea, but this doesn't sit well with me when you know that nurses have potentially the life of humain beings in their hands. Besides, the time it takes to do it is not going to break the bank either. Please help me understand why this technique has been abolished, it just doesn't make sense to me....
My daughter is a Canadian RN, working about 6 years now. She works in a Ketamine clinic so gives shots in the arm every day. I asked about aspirating the needle and she was aware of the process as they were taught about it at the University but at the same time told it's not necessary. She showed me how she selects the injection point, a specific measurement down from the shoulder. She did say she saw news coverage of the Covid clinics with video showing people getting the jab and noticed some were too low on the arm.
Dr Campbell did an interview with someone who researched the reason they stopped aspirating, and don't quote me, but if I remember correctly it was to lessen potential arm pain in children. I'm assuming that children move around more, and that could jiggle the needle, but that was thee only reason he could find, and based on that they extended that to adults and other drugs including ones that are proven dangerous if given intravenously
Dr. Campbell I have enjoyed listening to your videos on RU-vid. I am happy to hear that you depend on experts for your medical advice. I am also sure that you depend on what research says pertaining to your medical decisions. So do I , and I am from Oklahoma. I agree that it is problematic when lawyers try to practice medicine. That should be left to physicians don't you think? In the United States Insurance companies try to practice medicine too, and on a regular basis. I don't think you have that problem in the UK. You are fortunate.
I live in New Zealand and was able to get my booster vaccine with aspiration when I asked if they would. I did not go to a national vaccine centre but to a pharmacy with a physician that was obviously trained to aspirate. He did say that only a couple of people had asked for the procedure and that he would do it if I wished . I was grateful that he did. I had asked about it at the two vaccine’s previously and was told no they would not. These were at a national vaccine centre. Thank you Dr Campbell for your well balanced informative videos.
Worked for me and my family in Nov 2020. My doc has given 1000s of prescriptions and no hospitalizations. Go to FLCC for truth on ivermectin. You all should be ashamed of blasting Bullskit you know nothing about
@@gabrielanak6000 I'm sorry but have you looked at Australia lately with what Thay are doing to these people complete tyranny. Germany. Spain ECT all over. England just dropped all the mandates because they could not keep them going. Protest all over the world you haven't seen this?
I'm a Medical Assistant, we were taught how to aspirate, however we were also told that it's not really practiced anymore. Thankfully our instructors had us aspirate through out our schooling as they felt it was important. While I get it's not always policy anymore, I'm fully amazed by so many who don't know a thing about it in the medical field. They should not be giving injections if they don't know how to aspirate!
Following Dr.Campbell’s updates every day since the beginning of pandemic. His work is not only thorough, reliable and consistently accurate, also, he is brilliantly using his humor. Thank you Dr. Campbell for you are and who you are and mean for us in these chaotic times.
@Will R Thomson Well said. Anyone with a large following and a conscience should be calling out the criminal mismanagement of just about every aspect of the pandemic.
Absolutely astonishing that more than 2 years into the pandemic, just One Attorney General has remembered what doctors / physicians are supposed to do - what they were educated, trained, selected and paid to do and in many cases what they swore to do to the best of their ability... Thanks, John, for highlighting this turning point.
@@coaldoubt2879 It doesn't have to be just these two drugs... There are many protocols developed by different doctors around the world involving many drugs, but most if not all did include these two to various degrees.
Dr. Campbell, I would be interested in hearing your thoughts on treatment practices in the US compared to other countries. I don't know any details, but it seems that the extreme pushback against Ivermectin and other treatments here might be a factor in the relatively higher death rate here. Are you aware of any data on this topic?
Of course it's a factor. Early treatment is the key, but Big Pharma has gone above & beyond to suppress all early treatments in order to protect profits. IIVM is literally pennies per dose.
Thanks, John for a discussion of a reasonable assurance from the Oklahoma AG, who may well be giving requested guidance to the licensing boards there. Thanks again, John.
Dr. Campbell, you have been a breath of fresh air in a time when we all need to just stop and breathe. I am truly disappointed that solid health practices have been politicized in both of our nations. Please continue to do what you are doing knowing that there are many of us who trust and appreciate you.
@Happy Patriot I can recommend Dr. Sten Ekberg on youtube. I've lost 30 pounds in 5 months following his advice. Basically he promotes natural food, avoiding sugar and highly processed foods. He explains everything so that it seems easy to understand.
US public L I A R Rachel Maddow continues to claim that Oklahoma residents, specifically, gun shot victims, were turned away from hospitals because of a rash of overdoses of a horse tranquilizer.

I live in Oklahoma the reason this came out was that there are protests at one of our hospitals, they are using the cdc protocol and will not try anything other than that, many people have died and they are not trying anything else. What is the definition of insanity? Why would you not try every single thing you could to save a life, what happened to their oaths to do no harm? The politics in all of this is criminal.
I take your point, and hope when a medical practitioner treats me that they will not knowingly create me more harm and suffering. There are different oaths that medical practitioners take. The Hippocratic oath is commonly referred to; to name one other, the World Medical Association adopted its own oath in 1948 (the latest amendment being in 2017). But, it has been reported that it is not mandatory to take an oath and not all medical practitioners have done so.
Yeah because of the crazies they've had to put the ICU and emergency room on lockdown. Doing something that is ineffective isn't doing harm, but it's also not helping the patient.
Its not politucs its evil drug compamnies making biilons pay mobs to muddy the watet lest their profit is affected and people know the truth aout ay alternative
The Attorney General of Nebraska, Doug Peterson, led the way by taking this step in _October_, and explained in a detailed statement his reasons for doing so - but the mainstream media did not report it. Now not only Oklahoma but South Carolina have stepped up. It’s a start.
I would like recommended Dr John Campbell be give some award for his incredible work during the Pandemic. He has been a constant source of sanity, humor, and unbiased source of science that the world could not get from the Mainstream Media. I can say for myself, you kept my family safe and sane but sticking to the facts and letting me decide my own fate.

Thank you for giving us evidence-based information! As an older US nurse NICU, I always aspirated. It never caused a problem, and prevented injecting into a vein. It’s easy to do and prevents more problems than not doing it. Common sense!
I love your explanation of how they make up things when they don't know the answer. This was true in my profession, as it is probably basic human nature to avoid seeming ignorant, coupled with laziness. The proper response in every profession should be, "I don't know, but I'll find out."
That is what it has been all along in this experimental virus and its vaccines = There are no answers to this man-made dilemma. ..The creation of a cause to justify a war in which the antidotes are not winning.
Agreed, you tend to see that kind of "I'll just wing it" response in people who aren't secure in their position, either professionally or privately, it seems to be ego, insecurity, or a deliberately dishonest approach (even in the case of "for the greater good..."). Usually a blend of all three. I do think it is human nature in the same way fear of rejection or desire for respect is. Matt Taibbi, American journalist and author, also blames modern media culture for leading audiences to feel shame when confronted by something they may not be informed about. Edit: to elaborate here they try to encourage viewership by using this tact, and as a result we no longer tend to value honesty and truth as a whole.
Just makes ya appreciate docs like doctor Campbell. He's the one with the long face from seeing the corruption of his profession the most noble of professions by money and politics. Treat yourself to a nice chai tea or some tai chi doc. You deserve a crumpet baked by Merlin himself on the stone Arthur pulled the sword from. Someone on the island there get on that.
@@SueLyons1 I'm afraid that it's like Adam and Eve with the fig leaf. They are hiding their shame. We have to be taught to be humble and admit when we don't know the answer. People who have to lie to cover their ignorance are immature. Wise people know they don't know much of anything. I think it's also lack of caring and laziness. They would rather do what they're told instead of stopping to think and learn and possibly experience discomfort or rejection by their peers (like Pharmacists who refuse to fill Ivermectin rx's).
@@joanna0988 there has literally been hundreds of studies on it. People have had access to the drug it's not new. Heck they gave it to all of the front line staff in Australia way back when it was discovered it may work. It didn't so they stopped doing it. Same in India, made no difference so they stopped using it. What the drug does do is it kills parasites. If you are parasite free, you have a better chance at fighting covid. Do you know that in every study that has claimed it made a difference (not that it worked) every single one of them that wasn't faked occured in countries that their population are filled with parasites? The positive results have never ever been duplicated in countries with populations that don't have parasites. Follow the science.
Upon viewing my MRI results, I asked my primary care provider at my next visit what the word "uncovertebral" meant on the finding of "uncovertebral hypertrophy". He told me "that is a typo". I said huh well that is strange, went home and looked it up on line. Next visit with the primary care a couple of weeks later, I shared with him what I had found (no I am not advocating for being my own google doctor, but it is a basic definition) and he doubled down, said I was wrong and it is just a typo. I found a new doctor! Bottom line is no one can know everything about anything! A person who will give a wrong answer, whether that is because they were simply wrong and cant admit that, or because they cant admit that they dont know, is a problem, but in medicine it can be dangerous!
@Michael RogersPoliticians? Have you heard any politicians talking about ANY treatment except for "The Vaccines." The reality that many have been helped by "other means", is inarguable. Do you believe that vaccines, in and of themselves, will keep you from Covid acquisition, or speed up/assist your immune system in healing it once acquired? Look into it; your comment is ridiculous..."it's garbage...", seems to denote that YOU KNOW, and we both know that you do not.
Where was this clarification for the last 2+ years? 49 states left to echo this "should be obvious" statement. Now that so many jabs have been given, the wealth-transfer damage done, stocks jacked, this statement. Oklahoma leads the way? Since when? (Nothing against Oklahoma or its citizens, I promise)
@Michael Rogers ivermectin does actually work in combatting covid19, but only in doses highly toxic to humans!! I feel like Dr Campbell is dancing around this issue which is silly really. Some doctors are ignorant - my own doctor tells me to gargle after taking a nasacort nasal spray worried it would get in my bloodstream - I conferred with my ENT and he just laughed, it doesn't get absorbed into the blood stream. Its understandable that law comes in to play when conspiracy theories are allowed to influence doctors...
Here in Australia i took my 14 year old son to a hospital vaccination clinic to have his vaccination. I asked very politely for the vaccine to be aspirated saying I would feel more comfortable knowing the vaccine was correctly administered. The nurse administering the vaccine said she needed authority and asked her supervisor. The supervisor was very rude to me, refused my request and told me to go elsewhere. I went to a medical centre quite upset where the nurses were amazing, they were very understanding and more than happy to aspirate.
Dr. Campbell, I am way overdue thanking you for your amazing videos. I have enjoyed and learned so much from them. I am a general practitioner in Colorado. Your work is tremendously valuable. I suspect the “ bloke” who said that “if you aspirate you may inject air”, was not lying. My guess is that he fails to understand the absence of air in the vacuum that can be seen within the syringe. The comment hopefully represents a lack of understanding, rather than a purposeful misdirection. Thank you, again, for your tremendous work! Rob Sarche, MD
I got through the pandemic by reading the helpful comments on here, so much good advice on supplements and how to take them commenters on here are so knowledgeable I learnt so much and I’m so thankful to them all. I only stayed subbed so I could read the comments but I’m glad John has helped you God bless you
I wish I had begun watching him way earlier. Numbers I can relate to. I felt better about Covid after I had watched several videos and I thank him for this.
Go Zita! More of us should refuse treatment when we come across clinicians who treat us with contempt. My GP was horrified why any clinician wouldn’t aspirate, and clearly taken aback that I needed to request it.
Dear John, I was attacked by so called friends when I tried to explain only facts about ivermectin, the American Medical Association stance on it, and why the media characterization of the drug as horse dewormer was disingenuous at best and lying at worst. I did not advocate for it. I said I am fully vaxxed, and I do not know if the drug works well enough. (My doc won’t prescribe it and I don’t care.) I asked where my facts were wrong. And then they attacked me again, saying I was essentially putting people at risk of death by merely saying ivermectin as human treatment is a thing. Some people stateside are out of their minds. Even monoclonal antibodies are politicized and vilified. I work at a health system, and I’m aghast at what this pandemic has done to the hearts and minds of fellow humans.
Your friends are now part of the 'Herd' because of mass formation psychosis. If the authorities and media hammered them that the sky was green; you would be condemned for pointing out that it was blue.
If Ivermectin or other already existing pharmaceutical were formally approved for use in treating COVID-19, this prevents emergency approval of COVID-specific pharmaceuticals and vaccines. The rule for emergency authorization for new vaccines to bypass standard FDA protocols requires that no viable treatment exists for a population-wide medical catastrophe. If Ivermectin were accepted as a viable and effective treatment, none of the current vaccines could have received emergency authorization.
Hello Dr. Campbell, thank you so much for all of your efforts, I really enjoy your videos. I am not an expert in any of these fields, and I did not read all comments here so maybe it has been mentioned already. I am a person that is just watching developments, and I believe the Oklahoma Attorney General may have been addressing the disciplinary actions against medical professionals for prescribing Off-Label Medicines. I only mention this because I felt that you were trying to understand why the Attorney General would have to even make such a common sense statement. If anyone would like to check a case, Dr. Mary Bowden is one medical professional that has been disciplined for such prescriptions. Thank you again!
Thank you Dr. Campbell for the lesson. As a non-medical type, electrical engineer, I had to look up exactly what your were talking about. I now know what is meant by aspirate.
I am from Oklahoma. This a such a blessing. I have been on the FLCCC prophylaxis for months. And for you to tell about our great state of Oklahoma , I am flattered . I do listen every day to your program.
Canada is still so backwards. I have been using vet tablets throughout pandemic with amazing success, No side effects.

@Michael Rogers I’m sorry that you feel as way. I shave been watching this man for about two years and from time to time I don’t agree with him but I always know that he’s following Scientific truths. Please let me know what he “ got wrong ‘ in this video. I would enjoy discussing this with you.
There's no need for specific authorization to use ivm. It's been approved already. The problem is doctors are pressured not to use it. The law should provide protection to the doctors to practice medicine away from buerocratic pressure

This is all too late. The doctors from the Front Line COVID Clinical Care Alliance have been saying this for two years. Unfortunately, no doctors are allowed to prescribe the drugs.
@Michael Rogers This is not your decision. You and I may not agree with its use, but we could be wrong. Today’s certainties are tomorrow’s misinformation. This is a drug with an extremely sound safety record. This is a decision between a doctor and patient - it shouldn’t include a government bureaucrat.
@Michael Rogers Extreme wording plus too many exclamation marks means a lot. IVM toxic garbage? Interesting. One doesn't have to be on any side of the opinion around it to know its historic safety factor is less toxic than tylenol. CNN got ya good didn't they!
This is amazing. One step closer to everyone coming together with real science, hope, and understanding. Let doctors be doctors, and politicians stay out of it.
What is really amazing is the fight by central authorities to prevent doctors from being doctors and to just do what they are told and not what they have spent a decade learning.
It's one thing to say "Let doctors be doctors," but another thing altogether when we have stupid doctors who don't know what they are doing. I have private clients who are doctors, who have completely bought this vaccine narrative and told ME to go get vaccinated. I can't say anything to them since they paid me for my service.

During the Vietnam War, U.S. soldiers took a chloroquine pill every day to ward off malaria. That amounted to 365 pills for a one year tour of duty. I never had any side effects. Nor have I heard of any veteran I know who had any bad effects from the drug.
A lot of medications have been given to military personnel that were ill advised. I'm unaware of any study that has shown ill effects from chloroquine pills so I have no basis to say it's harmful. But neither is your experience proof of anything except perhaps that there are no widespread immediate toxic effects at whatever dosage level the military used.. There could of course be long term effects that you would not have observed while on duty and/or toxic reactions that you never heard about, because as we all know, the military has a history of covering up medical issues. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying chloroquine is toxic or ineffective. I don't know, and neither do you unless you have real scientific evidence. Clinical trials are the only way to know for sure what dosages might produce what efficacy with what side effects. Your personal experience in Vietnam, compelling though it may seem to you, is not scientific evidence.
One of the most serious side effects is blindness. But thanks for your anecdotal account of the drug. Proof of why people nowadays armed with a little Internet knowledge have become dangers to themselves.
Powerful piece as it turns out I think John. It is good that you are so well trained in the use of language, in diplomacy. Mixed with the scientific/medical/data/training background, you, as a generalist, are better placed than many to truly report on the subjects your choose. Thank you again.
@Michael Rogers "where exactly is the clinical evidense..." do you mean like for example pushing children to get vaccinated against covid-19? Or that people who has natural immunity should get vaccinated to achieve "super immunity"?
@Michael Rogers 5th cut and paste. all within the same minute. So I assume yorue an AI bot to be able to review a comment, hit reply and paste this response at least 5 times in one minute.
I think that John, because of his training, is a little misinformed. If you need an expert to give advice on your health, you go see a nutritionist, or an integrative doctor and identify what support your immune system needs. This is not about going to a doctor for a drug! Doctors only give you what the CDC tell them to do, or what the drug companies what them to do. As Dr. John correctly suggests, you need to look at the patient holistically. One of the reasons we have made such a big mess of Covid is Doctors were not doing the basics, like making sure their patients had high levels of vitamin D, K2, zinc. None of these conventional doctors care about vitamins, as he can't make money from it. It's better for him that you get sick, so that he can prescribe tests and drugs. Modern medicine is not about health, it's about keeping people sick. With all that we have witnessed, the lack of aspiration etc., we should all be starting to wake up now!
US public LIAR Rachel Maddow continues to claim that Oklahoma residents, specifically, gun shot victims, were turned away from hospitals because of a rash of overdoses of a horse tranquilizer. A simple phone call to the hospitals mentioned proved this to be completely false. No such thing ever happened. Maddow has failed time and again, to tell the simple truth. She is a public failure.
When I got my booster I asked the pharmacist if he aspirated the needle. He said he didn't normally. I asked if he would humor me and do it anyway. He said sure and did it.
It’s taken two years to start getting legal support for ivermectin and HCQ. It has been criminal the way this has al worked its way forward. The drug companies, the governments and the media have handled this in a criminal manner. Doctors have been ruined over attempting to do the right thing.
To the people that just point and say something doesn't work, why don't they try talking to doctors who have prescribed certain repurposed drugs and ask how their patients did? Also talk to the patients and find out how they felt (side effects etc). There are many people who have taken repurposed drugs and got well much faster than what the doctors were left to work with. All the media does is demonize these people instead of being actual reporters and ask good questions and being objective about what they are seeing. This tribal landscape that happens from the top down (pharma and gov sponsored) does nothing to help true science. "Follow the science" being said by gov and pharma has turned into a bad joke.
I just got my booster about 3 weeks ago at the local pharmacy. When I went in I asked the medical tech if he could aspirate prior to injection. He commented that it wasn't necessary for IM injections but, it was no problem. He then proceeded to make a point of making sure that I observed the entire injection process to verify that he had indeed aspirated before injection. I thanked him for being so understanding and he responded that it was no problem because after all, I was the patient. I have a feeling that some of the problems people are running into when asking for aspiration is due to professional arrogance. My mother worked as a pediatric physical therapist and she commented that it was not unusual for doctors to condescendingly lecture her about her field even though they had no expertise in her profession.
@@marybusch6182 Goes both ways. I think the major point needs to be that we are the patients and docs and nurses need to respect our health decisions too. Politics and medicine need to be separated. This has become insane and has damaged medicine.
@@anotherlover6954 That's funny. You know, that reminds me of the joke about the medical tech disinfecting the arm of a convict right before he gets his lethal injection.
When I was taught by other laypeople how to correctly give an IM injection to my first horse, I was taught to aspirate. How strange that medical persons don't always do so as a matter of common procedure and protocol
Wow! It seems Oklahoma has some smart people in their government. Finally, the relationship between doctor and patient is finally being recognized as sacresant.
I have to say that most times I've visited a GP over the last few years, I've left feeling I perhaps might know a little more about whatever problem I'm presenting with than they do. Not meaning to sound arrogant but if one can read and has a reasonably analytical mind and a reasonable grasp of human health/physiology/nutrition one can get a reasonable idea of what might be "ailing" them. Which is why I love watching Dr Campbell! It's always an educational experience.
Once you've had to deal with someone with a long illness who constantly has to deal with doctors, you will realize, they are all about covering their asses.
Wait till you’re fired by a Doctor as a patient due to self-research & self-education. Needless to say I was shocked to receive the certified-mail informing me of the same from Dr. Snowberger a Gastrointerologist here in Dallas, Texas who apparently was intimidated by my Asperger’s (puzzle solving) & My constant questioning as to why as a vegan vegetarian since 1983 that my colon was no longer working. I have since then deduced that I am polio vaccine injured & that the polio virus has rendered my gastrointestinal tract paralyzed. Which makes sense since we know what it does to the diaphramic muscles (Requiring iron-lung to breathe properly), &? We know what it does to the pelvic in-nervation & subsequent paralysis or weakness of the lower extremities. Why has not anyone ever wondered why idiopathic constipation could not be likewise tied to vaccine injury caused by the polio vaccine??. I’ll take my Nobel peace prize nomination, if you please?. Oh me?: UIC ‘83 Biology & Nutritive Sciences Degree + an RD for about a decade before I got out of the medical mafia industry as a practicing dietitian. Actually once I obtained my degree I stopped researching & studying (sarcasm) & my degree? Is so out-dated & old because it’s from 1983 Since so many things have been updated & changed since then (continued sarcasm). I literally loathe most people as abjectly imbecilic but then again I’m an INTJ/INFJ as well.....
Me too, and I've noticed almost ALL health professionals absolutely HATE it if they suspect you 'know' a bit about medicine/health. The vast majority are utterly arrogant, only 'care' whether you're about die (ie don't care at all if you are not about to die), incapable of making their own decisions, incapable of doing anything at all other than what they've been told to do (which in the case of covid, is to do absolutely nothing, unless you're about to die), and often enough they are incapable of doing basic things such as stick to appointments, offer diagnostic checks etc. WE are all on our own in this world. Be your own doctor, so far as it is possible. Channels such as this enable us to do so.
Similar experience. went to large trouble to have mine aspirated as I my booster is MANDATORY. I had chest pains after first two. Arranged vaccination to be done by a trained clinician, booked it, went to hospital pharmacy, and the vaccinator said "ok, I wil aspirate". I watched them inject me, and they did not draw back once the needle was in as I understand is the proceedure, instead they chose to ask me some questions to try to distract me guessing I had a fear of needles. I was profiled and totally dismissed. Where are ethics these days?
Dr Campbell, thank you for bringing up the "aspirate before giving intramuscular injection". I am a retired nurse with 34 years hospital experience. Trained in Hong Kong and UK for nursing and midwifery qualifications, I agree with you that it is the procedural guideline in both places. Always find your videos helpful in understanding covid and the progress. I live in Australia now, hope one day I'll be able to visit UK again, good memories of living there.
Not in Brisbane, I had a nurse in a medical centre tell me there are virtually no vessels in your arm & it's not ever done and did not want to risk using it according to her. She was in her 50's as well. Her facecwentvred when my wife came in and told her she was a midwife and she was actually trained how to aspirate
@@tjw1861 The arrogance of the stupid, or the incompetent or worst of all those that know better but simply toe the party line. And they wonder why some are resistant to comply with their diktats.
Where I live they only do mass vaccinations and they don't even take the time to make sure the needle is in the right place, let alone aspirating. And also they're using vaccines that haven't been authorized by the WHO. So, yes, I'm still unvaccinated. Never had covid since the pandemic started.
I had covid pneumonia with ground glass opacities, a massive viral load ( delta) and was in respiratory failure. My dr allowed my grown children to come in to say goodbye to me. Well they smuggled in IVERMECTIN ( 14 days worth) after the first dose i started to turn around. IVERMECTIN SAVED MY LIFE!
Referring to the "5 rights" of prescribing medications listed in the video, I would ask what is the right dose of Ivermectin to treat covid? In vitro studies required a concentration that is beyond what is tolerable in human patients, and there has been a very mixed bag of results in clinical trials, with many if not most trials terminated early due to no benefit or worse outcomes in patients who received ivermectin. So how can you simply say "doctors know this" when referencing proper dosage in the video? Where is there a valid study with reliable methodology and results in a large size of patients to reach this safe and effective dosage and what exactly was the benefit of receiving ivermectin as treatment? Curious why Dr. Campbell is not talking about any of this...
Thank you for sharing this information with us. I'm happy to hear that and hope other states will allow doctors to prescribe thay as well. It's ridiculous here in the US because some doctors have been threatened with losing operating privileges in some hospitals and they have been treated very harshly for prescribing Ivermectin for their patients. Even when the treatment had worked for so many.
Sorry, but it just hasn't worked for so many. Many studies proving it is completely ineffective against Covid. Plenty of people that took it got better, because almost everyone that gets Covid also gets better. There may even be some instances where the Placebo effect of thinking that you are receiving an effective treatment tricks your brain into making you feel better that you otherwise would. But there is no medical evidence, after significant testing, that Ivermectin is effective against Covid. To be fair, not nearly as much testing as there has been to show that the mRNA Covid vaccines are safe and extremely effective against Covid, but that is probably beside the point.
In America now, the government has become an enemy of the citizenry. Thankfully many, having done their own research, now know the evil slithering across America and the World.
Regulatory professional in the US for 30 years here (and a huge fan or yours!)…doctors have the option of prescribing drugs off label under federal law. This has happened routinely for oncology patients for decades. That being said, often nowadays the doctor and patient will get pushback from insurance companies. (And not all ‘old’ drugs are cheap sadly.)
Dr. Campbell, I am proud to share that my state Nebraska was the first have doctors officially be allowed to use any prescribed drug as they see fit- Followed by Louisiana, South Carolina and now Oklahoma.
And what were the results? I know LA and SC were completely overflowing in the hospitals. They had low vaccination rates (many see these treatments as an alternative) and their hospitals couldnt keep up.
@@toeachitsown2050 Nebraska has dropped all mask mandates and we have low hospitalization rates. It is NOT vaccines OR early aggressive treatment- it is BOTH.
@Michael Rogers "Toxic garbage"? Whats the evidence that it does any harm? Its been prescribed for a long time and has a good track record as an anti-viral. The theoretical dose required to have an effect in the deep lungs would be toxic but that toxicology is also well established. The thinking is that its effects in other parts of the body at a lower safe dose may have an impact. I dont know /doubt if its therapeutic effect is proven, but to conflate unproven efficacy with toxicity is disingenuous. Anytime I've heard of doctors prescribing it its been in conjunction with other treatments.
I asked in January during a pharmacy continuing education on vaccines if we would start teaching pharmacists in the US to aspirate prior to injection. Told in no uncertain terms absolutely not. They advised we are not authorized to aspirate prior to vaccination. So glad I quit retail pharmacy right before COVID hit. Was planning to return to pharmacy but seems some other profession might be more to my liking.
@Michael Rogers You do know that muscle needs blood supply to and from to function? There may not be large veins or arteries but there sure are a whole load of small ones.
Well I guess I may add my experience in a German Vaccination Center in Bonn then: I was vaccinated with J&J Vaccine in July 2021 and asked the doctor there to aspirate (which he quite happily did) and upon the German Government changing their guidelines in January 22 I was running the risk of not counting as vaccinated anymore (with the repercussions of not being admitted to my workplace anymore) so I went to get a second dose on the 19th of January. Having filled out the questionnaire for the J&J Vaccine I went there and was told that I could not get a second dose of J&J, instead I could only get Moderna or Pfizer because that was supposedly part of their guidelines. I asked if they refused to vaccinate me according to my whishes and they got the "Chefärztin", basically the Chief Medical Doctor or Senior Doctor (I don't know the correct term). She started with "so you have probably read something somewhere?", to which I said "no, but currently it is simply not possible to assess possible long term effects of the new vaccinations, so as a risk reduction I would rather have the same Vaccine I already had administered, instead of getting two different ones and thereby increasing my risk of negative side effects". She agreed that it is correct that we cannot possibly evaluate possible long term effects, since there is no long term data, but she was not allowed to give me J&J again. I could probably find a practitioner who would follow my whishes but I would have to find a doctor myslef to do so and it couldn't happen in an official Vaccination Center. Given that I would be locked out of my workplace if I didn't get "re-"vaccinated, with some possible repercussions, I agreed to take the Moderna Vaccine, but I asked her to aspirate. She said that was not needed and I told her that health officials in other countries see this differently (namely Denmark), so she agreed to aspirate as a goodwill. She would be the one giving me the vaccine (apparently I was some kind of prolematic customer I guess). When she put the needle in she simply forgot to aspirate ( i believe her in that, because after I told her right away she seemed genuinely sorry for not having done so). She did say that it would be bad to aspirate because of the "Nanoparticles" in the vaccine, it might affect the efficacy of the vaccination. I did however feel kind of robbed of my personal rights that day to make certain medical decisions myself and it did feel really bad, I was under the belief that there are certain rights and responsibilities between a doctor and their patients to ensure trust and such things. Apart from the fact that in Germany they didn't get the implications of what Omicron means (pretty much great luck and a blessing in a really bad situation, as of now the news is starting to break though), while neighbour countries (like Denmark) are far ahead in their evaluation, so the whole revaccination panic due to Omicron spreading s fast was very overhyped in my opinion (I am not part of a particular risk group). We even reduced the duration of the natural immunity down to 3 months for people who had Covid, so they would count as unvaccinated much faster. Stuff like that and the fact that there is no real open discussion of facts and data is happening in the press or in politics really ruins the trust in our basic democtratic structures. It was one more very bad day for my trustometer at least .....
I am glad you think medical care should be individualized. I am a retired nurse and consult with my doctor and he acknowledges my alternative medical care attitude. I told him that I think we should take the best from all fields . Medications have their place but leading a healthy life style is best and some alternative care which is natural may be best.
You have mentioned the situation about Ivermectin in Japan on several of your presentations, and I get that this not a signal of approval, but it would be good if you could find out if there were hardly any doctors utilising the freedom to prescribe Ivermectin, or whether there were millions of doses prescribed. Given the very small death rate from CoViD in Japan, it would be useful to see any association.
I agree. He did say after his original "ivermectin in Japan" video that he would get back to us with more info and we never heard any more after that. In my opinion there seems to be a lot of evidence that it is effective but there sure is a strong pushback against it.
Ivermectin is not authorized for, nor is it used to treat, COVID in Japan. Probably why he hasn't gotten back to you about the use of Ivermectin in Japan
@@TheMrSuge Who would need to authorize it if treatments are between doctors and patients. Do doctors in Japan need authorization from some entity before giving prescriptions. In the U.S. the drugs just need to be approved by the FDA and ivermectin is.
It’s not illegal in my area but finding a doctor to prescribe Ivermectin and a Pharmacy to fill it is another story. I have but I found ONE in my state and they recommended a pharmacy that compounds. I was lucky.
Dr Campbell's stories are examples of those things which destroy the common man's trust in the One-Size-Fits-All official Covid Narrative. Many non-vaxxers are not "anti"-vaxxers but people who simply do not trust the authorities' explanations. These people are, more often than not, doctors, scientists and college-educated. As Dr Campbell states, proper medicine is INDIVIDUAL treatment determined between the Doctor/Nurse and the patient.
