Chris Cuomo Admits to Taking Ivermectin, as New Study Shows It Reduced ICU Admissions by 83%

Guest Post by John-Michael Dumais

Former CNN anchor Chris Cuomo suggested he was injured by the COVID-19 vaccine, and said he was taking ivermectin to treat his symptoms. Meanwhile, a new clinical trial demonstrated the drug’s ability to reduce ICU admissions by 83% in COVID-19 patients.

Former CNN anchor Chris Cuomo suggested he was injured by the COVID-19 vaccine, and said he was taking ivermectin to treat his symptoms.

His revelations come as a new report from a clinical trial showed that ivermectin reduced ICU admissions by 83% and shortened hospital stays for COVID-19 patients.

Cuomo, now a regular host on NewsNation, first mentioned the vaccine injury on May 3 during his interview with 54-year-old nurse practitioner Shaun Barcavage, who experienced severe adverse reactions after his hospital pressured him to take the COVID-19 vaccine.

Near the end of the interview, Cuomo said, “I’m sick myself, but I’m working with people who are working on this. … I’ll hook you up with my clinicians.”

The portion of the show where Cuomo made the admission was removed from the final version of the “NewsNation” YouTube clip.

‘We were given bad information about ivermectin’

On the May 7 episode of the “PBD Podcast” with Patrick Bet-David, Cuomo again implied that he may be vaccine-injured. He said his doctor told him, “We’re looking at your blood. You have so many antibodies that we don’t know what the vaccine [booster] would do ‘for you’ as opposed to ‘to you.’ So don’t take it.”

Cuomo’s doctors showed him “glowing microclot stuff” in his blood, which “scared the bejesus out of me,” he said. “That really shook me up.”

“I don’t know that it’s the vaccine,” he told Bet-David, revealing that he suffered long COVID symptoms before being vaccinated. But Cuomo’s insistence about the need for an investigation — “because we screwed up everything” — strongly implies he believes the vaccine contributed to his condition and that he may be suffering “long vax.”

Unwilling to fault the vaccines — perhaps over fear of the professional backlash so many others have experienced — Cuomo said, “People are saying I’ve admitted that the vaccine hurt me. I have not admitted that. I don’t know that.”

In his “PBD Podcast” appearance, Cuomo criticized the government’s response to vaccine injuries. “The vaccine is a really important conversation that’s being ignored.”

He also pointed out the inadequacies of the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) and the lack of robust government investigation into the vaccine and the pandemic response.

After discussing long COVID on NewsNation, Cuomo said, “I got called by government people bitching at me because I said that the vaccine wasn’t perfect.”

In the same “PBD Podcast” episode, Cuomo admitted taking ivermectin. “I am taking … a regular dose … of ivermectin,” he said. “My doctor … was using it during COVID on her family and on patients. And it was working for them.”

Cuomo said the entire clinical community knew from the beginning of the pandemic that ivermectin was not harmful. “They weren’t saying anything” because they were “play[ing] scared.”

“We were given bad information about ivermectin,” he said. “[I] didn’t know that at the time. [I] know it now, admit it now, reporting on it now, because I think that’s the job.”

Mainstream media ‘was wrong’ about ivermectin

Ivermectin has been a subject of much controversy during the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite being a well-established antiparasitic drug with a favorable safety profile, its use for treating COVID-19 was met with skepticism and resistance from mainstream media and some public health authorities.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) launched a campaign against the drug in 2021, calling it “horse paste” and warning people not to use it to treat or prevent COVID-19, despite numerous studies showing its potential effectiveness.

In his “PBD Podcast” comments, Cuomo criticized the mainstream media’s portrayal of ivermectin. “Ivermectin was a boogeyman early on in COVID. You couldn’t talk about it. That was wrong. … [It] should have been part of our common practice to see if it could help or not.”

Cuomo admitted Joe Rogan was right when he talked about ivermectin as a treatment early in the pandemic.

Dr. Pierre Kory, co-founder and president emeritus of the FLCCC Alliance and a prominent advocate for ivermectin, said ivermectin is one of the safest medicines in history. “I use it for long COVID and long vax, and I have patients on it who’ve been on it daily for up to two years,” he told The Defender.

“I think the war on ivermectin is over,” he added. “It was fought to a stalemate — meaning those that don’t believe it works will not change their minds.”
