[American Thinker] Ivory Hecker, an astute and brave local Fox reporter, interviewed Dr. Joseph Varon, despite Fox threatening her job if the unedited interview went live. It's worth listening to in its entirety, but here's some of what it says.It's certainly not the first time Dr. Varon's been interviewed. He's talked with the media 1,640 times, including Hecker's interview. The first 1,639 interviews were edited to exclude specific information about his successes in treating hospitalized COVID patients.
This doctor is certainly no quack. He's chief of staff at United Memorial Medical Center in Houston, Texas. He invented the MATH+ protocol for treatment, and his death rate has consistently been far less than half that of other hospitals, even a third compared to many. Back in the beginning, when he was able to include hydroxychloroquine in his formula, his death rate was close to 4%, as opposed to around 20% in other hospitals.
Hecker interviewed several of his patients for the piece. One, a urologist from a hospital on the other side of Texas, was airlifted (at his own request) to Dr. Varon. He described how thankful he was to have gone from desperate and dying, with nearly no lung capacity, to healthy. He was clearly robust, despite his COVID experience. He says his improvement began "within hours" of starting the protocol.
Dr. Varon clearly states that "there's no reason for patients to die. We have options, we just have to make those options available."
Hecker also speaks with Dr. Pierre Kory, who co-authored a peer-reviewed study on ivermectin with Dr. Varon. He states without equivocation that, if patients receive ivermectin early in the course of the virus, ivermectin alone is effective as a treatment. He testified in the Senate about it, too.
Most outlets blocked the video, except Fox. Oddly, after a lot of views, Fox set the video to private, so nobody else could see it. Another example of censorship occurred when Dr. Kory talked with Bret Weinstein, something Joe Rogan highlighted.
