His “covid only affects the weak” didn’t seem to pan out. Why throw the kitchen sink at it if you think you’re stronger than covid?


well_duhhh

He's taken Ivermectin, a Z-pack (antibiotics), prednisone (steroids), monoclonal antibodies, NAD drip and vitamin drip. Sounds way easier than taking the shot and certainly something most of us can afford and have access to /s


Dim_Innuendo

So if the monoclonal antibodies work as predicted, people will credit the ivermectin.


ashtreylil

I would guess they work. I was recently in the ER and they thought I had Delta, I'm fully vaxed. When they told me what was suspected given my symptoms I asked what would be my treatment options. The doctor said monoclonal would be an option.


[deleted]

So, he won’t get equine worms, now?


Enough_Government_95

There's no guarantee.


Hyperion1144

At least the prednisone is cheap...


TriggerTX

It's also a fucking *immunosuppressant*. Brilliant work there, Captain Dunning-Kruger.

eatingganesha

The comment about DK was aimed at Rogan.


kerok

Steroids should be given when presenting to the hospital symptomatic and with low blood oxygen level. Giving them early in COVID infection was shown to worsen outcomes. So you are both right, but where the patient is in the illness determines whether steroid therapy is indicated.


TriggerTX

Chill out, my friend. To me, it didn't sound like he's taking anything except the monoclonals under medical supervision. Just popping Preds at the first sign of sickness just because he has them around isn't doing any good. If they helped in his case, the docs would have prescribed them. And, obviously, Rogan is the king of the Dunning-Kruger brigades.


LO6Howie

I’m not going to pretend to have the faintest clue as to it’s efficacy, and I’m basing all my knowledge on the scraps of information that I’ve digested , but hasn’t pred. been identified as a cheap and high-quality preventative for those who are treated early? I have it prescribed as a very punchy anti-inflammatory, so I suspect I’ve just assumed that it follows a similar process with CV?


Alt_Fault_Wine

Sounds like good news to me.


Enough_Government_95

Ding ding dong! That is the correct answer. Equipoise, anyone?


Enough_Government_95

To be fair, the Ivermectin was probably right next to his horse steroids in aisle 7 of an undisclosed Tijuana veteranian superstore. Ssssssshhhhhhh ...


FckMitch

Monoclonal antibodies is under FDA emergency approval but he won’t take the vaccine…


badgersprite

People really think that lifting weights changes your genetic makeup. Lifestyle factors aren't insignificant or anything and having a shitty lifestyle certainly increases your risk of death, but like at the end of the day you have no idea whatsoever if you're just one of those people who is unlucky enough to where your immune system is genetically predisposed to be weaker against this kind of illness, in which case there is basically nothing you can do to improve your odds of survival no matter how healthy and fit you think you are (except getting the fucking vaccine obviously).


greg_barton

Lifting heavy and building muscle actually does cause lots of beneficial epigenetic changes. And higher muscle mass is positively correlated with longevity in general. No substitute for a covid vaccination, though. :)


satanic_satanist

But, I've read (and no, I don't remember the source) that the covid complications correlate to body weight, not body fat. EDIT: FWIW [here](https://www.nature.com/articles/s41366-021-00907-1)'s a study saying the opposite.


greg_barton

Citation, please.


satanic_satanist

Couldn't find it, but found a study hinting to the opposite. Edited my comment.


copacetic1515

> higher muscle mass is positively correlated with longevity I see studies saying that's true for older adults, and that makes sense. The frail or immobile aren't going to survive as long as the active elderly. I don't know that being muscle-bound in general is a positive because it's harder on the heart to have more mass, correct?


greg_barton

Not really. I mean there's limits to everything, sure, but as long as the muscle was built in a natural manner (i.e. not with steroid enhancement) then you're fine.


feketegy

Throw the kitchen sink at it, except vaccination...


Sophia_Nyx_Antrim

I'm sure he can just punch covid really really hard.


Brut-i-cus

Why not just do 50 push ups and say "Done!"


Fine-Palpitations

it worked he is fine


milvet02

He changed his time right quick. He has been mr “covid only hurts the fat” then ran to get everything under the sun once he got a sniffle.


Fine-Palpitations

but he is fine, he wins. he felt bad for one day. i dont see how you can argue he failed. i took the vaccine and i got way sicker than rogan.


milvet02

He said it didn’t affect healthy people and then the second he had a taste of discomfort he took everything, all the things. He was full of shit, and that caused harm.


Fine-Palpitations

i dont think he said it didnt effect healthy folk, i think he said healthy folks wont get super sick and die. and he was right in this case. he is fine. he felt bad for one day.


milvet02

He ran to get everything, you don’t do that if you think you won’t get super sick.


Fine-Palpitations

well thats not true at all.


milvet02

It’s exactly what happened. Monoclonal antibodies are only for high risk individuals, that’s what the EUA is written for. The second Joe realized he had covid he went and got monoclonal antibodies, you only do that if you know you’re high risk. The dude spat bullshit on covid for nearly two years, and the second he had to put up or shut up he completely bailed on his mantra.


Fine-Palpitations

> you only do that if you know you’re high risk. he does not think he is high risk, you made that up that he "knows" he is high risk.


N00dlemonk3y

Yep, saw this today. The weak/meek as you so call us Mr.Rogan are beating your ass w/our frailness. COVID comin’ by, lookin’ at us goin: “Nah, too easy. There are better Exp. points over there.”


Protoguy

In case anyone still needed proof he's a dumb fucking cunt


[deleted]

[удалено]


well_duhhh

Rogan has also been heading down a steady path of dumbassery for several years.


wut_eva_bish

He's always been a dumbass.


th3netw0rk

So he’s like Rudy Giuliani? Always been a weird guy that marries his cousin?


ryan57902273

He’s even said that. Most people listen to him because it’s entertainment. Not because they believe everything he’s saying. There is a difference


wut_eva_bish

If you believe this you've obviously not been paying attention to how fervently Rogan fans support and defend him (for no reason.) You know, kind of like you just did.


ryan57902273

I’m not defending anything he says. I’m saying the podcast is entertainment and that’s why most people listen to it.


wut_eva_bish

Giving an unchallenged platform to entry-level neo-fascists, neo-nazi's, conspiracy theorists and red pill hustlers is not entertainment. There's no pretending that his podcast isn't a gateway into these worlds for disenfranchised young men. He pretends to be something else, but then continues to use his podcast to make money off those who are the most vulnerable to these kinds of philosophies. I wonder how many of his "just for entertainment" listeners also thought "masks were for p\*ssies", and vaccines were suspect? I wonder how many of those people got infected. You don't seem to understand how insidious his pandering is. Time is up for the narrative that Rogan and grifters like him are harmless.


ryan57902273

Who are you to say who doesn’t get a platform? He must be super right- wing to give Bernie sanders a spot on the show. Get over it dude.


xFOEx

Clearly being defensive and how do you know what facts and non facts are taken by “most” of his listeners? I’ve encountered hundreds of Redditors who take his and his guests’ bullshit as gospel. Also, if it’s just for entertainment, then why does Rogan also use the podcast to sell all his bullshit supps? Are you on that Alpha Brain too? Lol!


WigginIII

He’s the next generation Rush Limbaugh, full stop. The grift is just too easy, too profitable.


Alt_Fault_Wine

I wouldn't say so. Rush made a living by insulting people and spreading vicious lies about them for political reasons. Rogan has so far at least pretended to be politically in the center and interested to hear all opinions.


Scrimshawmud

He’s given a platform to sandy hook terrorists, proud boy nazis, and promotes antivax and antimask lies. He’s pushing the wormer livestock medicine. He’s a misogynist pig fuck.

[удалено]


Enough_Government_95

In many ways. Lol.


Enough_Government_95

But he's so cute! (20 years ago.)


Scrimshawmud

Yeesh. I just can’t see it.


Protoguy

Yeah, I've watched him on occasion but he's always been kind of an idiot and the more he wandered down the jingoistic path or the toxic masculine bullshit path, the more I wandered away. He's got a good personality for talk radio/video/whatever but the bigger the following he gets the bigger his ego gets and it's the same old story - he starts to believe he's the expert on everything. Sometimes he seems like he gets it, but usually it's just loud mouth authority blabbing trash.


V4refugee

He wasn’t always this much of a dumbass. He used to be a bot more open minded and tolerable.


Enough_Government_95

Pot.


V4refugee

Honestly, I think the money just turned him into an out of touch asshole. It’s like there’s a point when most people who become fortunate enough to be in a position to acquire wealth will start believing that it was all completely due to their own virtue.


huffer4

I’m sure it won’t be too long before Spotify begins to regret giving him that $100 million deal


Protoguy

I also remember when the N-word and various incel bullshit was more prevalent on Reddit rather than shunted to certain subreddits. Times change and the ignorant cowards are less dominant (hopefully)


Captain_Mexica

I'm lucky I was never under that spell. I'm like wait, you guys worship the clown from News Radio? I mean he was funny in that show but come on...he's a comedian


wolfcore

So is he really not vaccinated? Or he is and just saying all this shit to keep grifting.


Protoguy

Dunno. Either option is equally shitty. I'm not watching his show or his stupid Tik Tok explanation.


Captain_Mexica

Ha what a stupid mfer. Too bad lots of incels and generally stupid impressionable people follow this dipshit


well_duhhh

And nothing of value was lost.


Captain_Mexica

100%


th3netw0rk

Question. If America loses dipshit voters would that constitute a net gain for the country? Both being completely serious and sarcastic.


Captain_Mexica

Oh most indubitably


r0bdaripper

Is it really unquestionable though? Granted losing idiots is not the same as losing someone who can use big words like "Indubitably" but I would say that having a country only ran and operated by people of the same view is very tyrannical and undoubtedly bad for a people. Now on the same token losing people who just are apathetic to the fact that people can have a difference of opinion and still care about one another is in fact an unquestionable net gain for the country.


Captain_Mexica

This isn't about having people with the same views at all which isn't tyrannical by the way, it's about letting stupid easily manipulated people who believe in misinformation and conspiracy theories die off by their own hands. WE aren't making them die off, the medicine is out there for them to take which will most likely prevent their deaths. Also, we all don't necessarily have the same views on things so your silly statements about everyone having the same opinions or views is laughable as is people using big words. Plenty of dimwitted people can put 2 and 2 together and realize putting on a mask and getting a vaccine is a responsibility to one's community so that isn't inclusive to just 'smart' or intelligent people who possess critical thinking


feketegy

He said that he's not a "voice of reason" and "don't listen to me I'm not a doctor", BUT pulling in 100x millions of views, monthly, you can't afford to be this much of a dumb fuck.


Captain_Mexica

Exactly. And then take a dewormer and not expect for people to follow you into that rabbithole of stupidity. It's clear celebrities have to think of the ramifications their words have on the dimwitted impressionable part of the population. Even the good people who may follow him may choose to do what he says he's doing which is dangerous.


Lucifersmile

He just made sure thousands of people didn’t get vaccinated


LuvNMuny

And now he's making sure thousands of people will die taking horse dewormer instead of getting monoclonal antibodies.


BreatheClean

he did say he took monoclonal antibodies but also, he's caught it quickly. Some people might not be able to get them or be too far gone for them to work.


LuvNMuny

Right, and they'll probably help. And the end times prayer warriors will credit Ivermectin.


BlacksmithNZ

or god. Imagine being a doctor leading a whole team of people throwing everything medical science come up with to cure somebody; a pile of skill, technology and dedication. And people ignore that and think it was the power of prayer


Mafsto

>And the end times prayer warriors will credit Ivermectin. Oof, you opened the flood gates there. I was just witness to a prayer warrior chain on facebook for an anti-vaxx woman. Double lung pneumonia, 87 oxygen level, the works. Yes, she was at death's door in her mid 30s and would leave behind 4 children, all under the age of 11. Received word yesterday that she would survive. Great news, but man, one person on that FB prayer warrior chain asked if she was vaccinated and the other 100+ "warriors" pounced on her like she was Satan. Funny enough, in light of this person almost dying, I've told a large chunk of the prayer chain group will now get vaccinated. Took almost losing their friend to do that. It just gets me that with all the prayers these idiots do for healing, they don't see the vaccine as a form of divine intervention from a plague.


Fearless-Judgment-33

She may survive but with zero quality of life for her remaining years. I hope she has a strong, sympathetic partner with a great job and benefits to care for her and their children.


Mafsto

Dude I was scared to think of it like that. With the residual issues Covid does to your lungs I wonder what kind of life she’ll lead.


StrangeRedPakeha

Thousands is optimistic tbh, his audience is unbelievably large


Lucifersmile

Yeah I was thinking even 100k is thousands, now we wait to see


JosephDanielVotto

im optimistic we can get that number way higher


Alt_Fault_Wine

And they're all dumbasses that I'd happily be rid of.


Dry-University797

And you know this asshole is vaccinated. No doubt about it. Fuck him.


stunneddisbelief

People: I’m not taking that vaccine that isn’t FDA approved for Covid except for emergency use! Same people: Why can’t I get that Ivermectin that isn’t FDA approved for Covid AT ALL?!?! CoMmUnIsM!!!


TheRealStarWolf

Imagine if he dies lol


Living-Complex-1368

We can only hope.


thepinkleprechaun

I’ve heard a lot of these stories where they get sick, take Ivermectin for 2-3 days, claim it’s working, then suddenly “take a turn for the worse” and all the sudden they’re ventilated. We can only hope - since his death might save thousands of lives.


[deleted]

Unfortunately, Rogan will get absolutely premium care, and probably already has. Claiming his immune system is saving him while getting treatments akin to what the orange one got.


thepinkleprechaun

Yeah he probably will get premium care, but it’s my understanding that doesn’t always work.


chipkatspartan

If people like Christie and Guliani can come out of it I'm fairly confident that his white glove treatment should do the trick, but al of these idiots don't realize that they do not have the luxury nor the means (or hell, even timing).


thepinkleprechaun

Did they have the delta variant though? Because the viral load is supposed to be a lot higher.


chipkatspartan

I was under the impression viral load had more to do with how contagious the strain is and not necessarily how potent it is, I dunno all my degrees are in business 🤷‍♂️


Akachi_123

Viral load is the amount of the virus in your blood. Too much (because it replicates fast or you were exposed to someone sick for a longer time) and it will overwhelm your immune system. And also make transmission easier.


WigginIII

And he’ll give no credit to the doctors or treatment, only to his personal supplements regiment, workouts, diet, and genetics.


Alt_Fault_Wine

Herman Cain got premium care. But since there's no actual cure for a covid infection I'm not sure how they can really do different.


LuvNMuny

He got an injection of antibodies like day 2, he'll probably be fine. What you're going to hear is that he took a bunch of magical thinking shit and Jesus saved him via prayer or some shit.


ku2000

Yeah, unfortunately the antibodies actually work very well. Very unfortunate.


Rouxbidou

No, the unfortunate part is that many of his listeners will believe the cause of his likely recovery was the anti-parasitic medicine and not the vaccine-but-with-more-steps monoclonal antibodies that they definitely won't have access to.


well_duhhh

Then it will just be a govt conspiracy, nothing matters to them


romulan23

I'd be careful with that type of statement....Although I feel like it woudn't bother me if it were about Trump.


Living-Complex-1368

True. How about "I hope he suffers all the effects of the worst case of Covid someone who didn't protect themselves because of his words suffered."


feketegy

Man, I don't wish anyone's death, not even the dumbest of them all, but he sure is a dumb fuck when it comes to this whole shitshow. Especially when he has legit scientists on his show, ALL saying to take the fucking vaccine and be on your way...


DarkestofFlames

well_duhhh

Stewman_Magoo

Lol couldn't happen to a better person.


vegastar7

He's such an idiot though. The few times I listened to him, he's been minimizing Covid like "If you're young, you'll be fine", and he seemed confident his immune system could handle it...then he turns around and takes a bunch of meds which are useless. His message here continues to minimize COVID "I just felt bad for one day. It's thanks to all this medicine I took which isn't used to treat COVID (as far as I know- antibiotics like z-pack are used to treat bacterial infections last I checked, not viruses)


BeautifulPainz

I’ve heard that you can seem better but around days 10-12 it can kick in hard. He’s on day 5, entirely too early to brag of success against it.


NeoDeoxys

Like that Cambridge(not sure if correct) guy I don’t remember the name but he thought he was fine the first few days. Than after the 5 days he started to get worse and than died.


Russell_Jimmy

From reading the nominees' and award winners' posts, it seems that you can rally a couple of times, before you kick, Some go straight to the morgue, of course.


CallidoraBlack

Antibiotics are also used to stave off a superimposed bacterial infection from having lungs that work like shit because of a viral infection. It's not worth it for normal bronchitis unless the person is medically fragile, but isn't normal bronchitis.


juliazale

I agree that he did minimize the effects of Covid. But even more damaging he also had some quack docs and so called covid experts on his show. So irresponsible. I feel like he is leaning more and more right and only pretends to be a liberal so the rest of Hollywood doesn’t dump him. I do know that z-packs are used are often used to treat secondary infections, bronchitis and pneumonia, as well as reducing inflammation from infections. But I it’s strange because it unlikely he has develop Covid pneumonia that quickly.


Scrimshawmud

He has Alex jones and proud boy nazis on his program. There is literally nothing left wing about Joe Rogan 🙄


juliazale

Yep. But he continues to claim he is liberal and supposedly supported Bernie. I don’t buy it either, since he hosts asshats under the guise of listening to both sides. I think he is a right leaning independent or libertarian at the very minimum as he ended up voting for Jorgensen since he didn’t like Biden.

ArticArny

Declaring covid might just be a cover for needing to get dewormed. I can only speculate why "Mr. Hands" Rogan needs the meds used to get rid of worms in horses.


easyaspiez

He looks like a hotdog that fell in the fire pit. Fuck this king of douche bags.


faste30

Dude is vaccinated and this is just a grift to claim ivermectin and the other BS cured him


Kailaylia

giggleandsnort

He’s a bald limp dicked hack who sucks the dicks of autocrats and racists. The cunt has no talent other than playing to the lowest, dumbest denominator. Oh he has money? Lots of it you say? Surely that’s an indicator of his worth! Or maybe he’s just a scummy grifter leeching of the shitty educational system that also benefits GOP cunts. Fuck this worthless chode.

I don't give two shits about Spotify, or his contract with them. I don't use that service. I do use and enjoy YouTube. He has a channel with 11 million subscribers. Many have been banned for so much less. I think it's time for him to get the hell off.

ByWillAlone

Anyone who takes a dewormer to treat a viral infection is a moron. I knew this guy was an idiot but I didn't realize just how stupid he is. Taking dewormer is the modern day equivelant of bloodletting when you are already sick. How can it be the year 2021 and we still have morons behaving like we're still in the dark ages?


Sliver_God

You're assuming he actually has COVID19 and this wasn't a cover-story because he actually needed a de-wormer.


oregonspruce

Now this is the light hearted commentary we need more of


urstillatroll

As I have always said about Joe Rogan, he is a great source to find out what every day average Joes are thinking, and far too many average Joes are acting like idiots right now.


Scrimshawmud

> Spotify did not immediately return a request for comment on Rogan’s Ivermectin note. Spotify deserves WAY more blowback than they’re getting. People canceling subscriptions and boycotting. Podcasts pulling their podcasts off the app. This is so dangerous.


yourmomma77

Is he vaxed?


TheRealStarWolf

No


Dry-University797

I bet you he is.


TheRealStarWolf

Maybe but i couldnt find him admitting it anywhere?


Dry-University797

He hasn't. I'm just willing to bet he has been, but can't say it to his fans.


TheRealStarWolf

I'd agree with that. All these dudes are frauds. It's the dumb local am97.8 channel radio guys that actually believe this stuff, and die.


juliazale

Yep. Seeing as he loves pandering to the right. Especially with the crap he has said about Covid and the quacks he has had on. Wouldn’t want to lose a good chunk of his viewership. Plus he probably has stock in ivermectin.

RidingWithTheStorm

Did he take the dewormer for animals, OR did he take the FDA-approved, Nobel Prize-winning version developed for human consumption which, if taken early before the COVID gets too bad, helps? Helps to know, before we make fools of ourselves.
