My wife is a registered nurse (RN) at a local hospital in Tucson, AZ. For many years she worked in the ICU but for the last 2 years she has returned to the telemetry floor because it is less stressful and has greater opportunity for patient and family interaction. On Tuesday December 19th, 2020 she was "floated" to the COVID floor because they were short-staffed. That day she took care of 3 COVID patients who were either on oxygen or were intubated and proned. She said PPE was plentiful and she was diligent about following aseptic protocols. On Saturday December 26th, 2020 she woke with body aches and a fever (101.3 F). On Sunday December 27th, 2020 she had fever, body aches, fatigue, and nasal congestion but still no cough. On Sunday evening I drove her to a free testing facility at the Tucson Airport. Not wanting to sit back and wait for the worst I consulted TheDonald.win (thank you fellow pedes) and re-watched the video that was posted a couple weeks earlier of Dr. Kory passionately speaking to the Senate Homeland Security committee about Ivermectin. https://www.theautochannel.com/news/2020/12/10/922677-senate-testimony-dr-pierre-kory-ivermectin-miracle-drug-to-treat.html. That day I picked up 1.87% Ivermectin apple-flavored paste at a local feed store and we both started on it (wife = 135lbs takes the equivalent of 12 mg Ivermectin, me = 250 lbs taking 24 mg equivalent) hoping to stop the progression of her disease and as prophylactic treatment for me (not quarantining from her). On Monday December 28th, 2020 the test result came back POSITIVE (RT-PCR test). On Tuesday December 29th she still had a fever (100.3 F) but claimed to be feeling a little better. More improvement on Wednesday December 30th but still running a temperature of ~99-100. The fever broke on Wed-night/Thurs-early AM. On Thursday December 31 morning she had normal temperature (98.6 F) and felt pretty good. No nasal congestion, no cough, no body aches, slight headache. Today is Friday January 1, 2021. I have still not felt any symptoms of COVID but will continue to quarantine myself from people outside our home as a precaution.

Because we were unaware of the FLCCC guidelines prior to and during the COVID exposure we have both been taking 50 mg Zinc, 25 umg (1,000 IU) Vitamin D3. She also takes melatonin and famotidine, I do not take those but I do take warfarin because I have a mechanical heart valve. Note: these other supplements are unintentionally well below the guidelines from the FLCCC: https://covid19criticalcare.com/i-mask-prophylaxis-treatment-protocol/i-mask-protocol-translations/
