The SARS-CoV-2 spike protein—from both infection and vaccination—can trigger this cascade, leading to the microthromboses, chronic inflammation, and persistent symptoms like brain fog, fatigue, and cardiovascular issues. This same PAF-mediated pathway is implicated in other chronic conditions, including autoimmune issues and Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS).

I believe the preclinical case for ivermectin and mebendazole as anticancer agents is real, multi-mechanistic, and worth taking seriously. I believe the Hulscher cohort adds a meaningful safety and tolerability signal in real-world cancer patients, and that the responses some participants reported are encouraging enough to justify urgent randomized trials.
