The Government Cartel paid billions to Walgreens and CVS not to fill Ivermectin



Let us change our language a little bit.  A pandemic is best described as a natural genocide.  This means that a planned pandemic is easily characterized as a planned genocide.

It is thus completely reasonable that you spend to remove meds that can prevent the planned genocide.  just like asking your incoming internees to take a shower.

They spent billions to prevent the use of ivermectin, just as they remove known safe drugs from shelves.

By the way, this is the smoking gun now aimed at the heads of all participating perps.  This is malice aforethought by knowledgible folks.  And now you know.

Will this crime go unpunished?

The Government Cartel paid billions to Walgreens and CVS not to fill Ivermectin – the question is why



Mon May 20



https://www.americaoutloud.news/the-government-cartel-paid-billions-to-walgreens-and-cvs-not-to-fill-ivermectin-the-question-is-why/

Former CNN anchor Chris Cuomo, who pushed the government’s deadly COVID-19 narrative and shamed the unvaccinated,1 admitted he is taking Ivermectin for Long COVID – a condition affecting 17 million Americans2 which many believe could be caused by COVID-19 vaccines. Defending his use of Ivermectin, Cuomo – showing no remorse – stated, “Ivermectin was a boogeyman during COVID. That was wrong. We were given bad information about Ivermectin. The real question is, why?”3

Cuomo’s admission comes too late for the millions of Americans who could have benefited from Ivermectin as part of a treatment protocol for COVID-19.4 While Cuomo now admits the government got it dead wrong, he seems less willing to admit the part he played in perpetuating the government’s lies in what has become the biggest story of our lifetimes: In cartel-like fashion, the U.S. government bribed private entities to push experimental genetic injections knowing the shots caused serious injuries and even death, while blocking promising but unprofitable repurposed medications with high safety profiles that could have saved lives.

Americans Were Purposely Given “Bad” Information

Ivermectin was baselessly maligned at the height of the pandemic by the U.S. government, its captured medical establishment, and a bought-off mainstream media.5 According to Dr. Pierre Kory – a pulmonary and critical care specialist who has testified and written extensively about the intentional censure of Ivermectin in the U.S. – Ivermectin had the potential to save countless U.S. lives and could have ended the entire pandemic.6

Yet, bought-off hospitals and pharmacies, which were allocated a staggering $178 billion in federal COVID-19 relief money during the pandemic,7 would turn on the Nobel prize-winning drug. According to Dr. Kory in his book The War on Ivermectin.

“In the wake of the global horse-dewormer propaganda campaign, hospitals started pulling ivermectin from their pharmacies. Health systems began harassing and threatening employees with loss of employment if they prescribed ivermectin. Pharmacies became even more brazen in their refusals to fill ivermectin prescriptions.”8

Hospitals and pharmacies refused to administer or fill Ivermectin for the treatment of COVID-19.9 Clinical doctors who spoke out about successes they had treating patients with Ivermectin were shamed or – as in the high-profile case of Dr. Mary Talley Bowden – had privileges suspended.10


As Cuomo now readily admits, Americans were given bad (and even deadly) information about Ivermectin. Disturbingly, this bad information appears to have been intentional. But why? The most obvious reason is profits. If the public became aware that Ivermectin – a Nobel prize-winning medicine with a high safety profile – had shown potential efficacy against COVID-19, the global market for the government’s novel mRNA “vaccines” would have collapsed.11

As we wrote about in 2022, a safe, effective drug for early treatment of COVID-19 would have threatened the public’s acceptance of the government’s experimental gene therapy rebranded as vaccines, placing in question trillions of dollars in prospective profits for the medical-industrial complex.12

Pharmacies Were Incentivized to Follow the Government’s Lethal COVID-19 Narrative

As it always does, the truth eventually wins out. Americans are waking up to the sobering truth that the COVID-19 “vaccines” have inflicted widespread disability and death, even if they are hesitant to admit the actual numbers of those injured and killed.13 Americans are also waking up to another distasteful truth (which we have written about many times before)14 – the U.S. government targeted and paid off “trusted” sources to purposefully spoon-feed bad and even dangerous information to everyday Americans.15 These “trusted” sources chose profits over people.

A host of influential private voices in every sector of American life were on the government take. As we expose for the first time in this piece, we now know these “trusted” voices included two leading pharmacy companies around the country. Some of these very pharmacies claim, even today, that they are prohibited from filling Ivermectin for COVID-1916 and refuse to fill doctors’ prescriptions for Ivermectin.17

Some of these pharmacies brazenly pushed the government’s COVID-19 shots while balking at filling prescriptions for Ivermectin – even though during mass Ivermectin treatment in another country, excess deaths fell by a mean of 74% over a 30-day period, as reported in one 2021 study.18 In July of 2022, Walgreens ran a public-relations propaganda piece, highlighting a trusted “Walgreens healthcare supervisor” sharing the relief he felt over the fact that his 3-year-old daughter had finally received the COVID-19 shot.19 Walgreens would run another shameless propaganda piece in October of 2022, featuring then-NIAID Director Anthony Fauci getting his COVID-19 booster at a Walgreens pharmacy.20 Coincidentally, just before the Walgreens booster infomercial featuring Fauci ran, CVS had run its very own similar COVID-19 booster infomercial – this one picked up by mainstream media21 – showcasing then-CDC Director Rochelle Walensky getting her bi-valent COVID-19 vaccine at a CVS in Massachusetts.22

Coincidence? Hardly. Our research reveals that both Walgreens and CVS were recipients of large monetary contract awards from the federal government for their work related to COVID-19. Had these pharmacies readily filled or promoted Ivermectin – an inexpensive drug frowned upon by the medical establishment which potentially threatened the government’s COVID-19 narrative – this would likely have interfered with COVID-19-related contract money these pharmacies stood to receive from the federal government.


The contracted work appears to have included providing COVID-19 testing and administering vaccines, but also could have included filling prescriptions for government-sponsored medications like Paxlovid.23 In short, the pharmacies would have likely missed out on some of their share of the $5 trillion of government money handed out like chump change during the pandemic.24

How Much Did These Pharmacies Stand to Earn? Two Government Websites Show Billions

Two separate government websites reveal billions in COVID-19-related government contracts were awarded to the nation’s two largest pharmacy companies: CVS and Walgreens.25 Some of these government contracts appear to be ongoing today.

According to one U.S. government website, in June of 2022, CVS was the recipient of a government contract award with a potential worth of over $2.1 billion.26 Transaction descriptions on the website show some of the money paid to CVS was for ICATT 27 – a CDC program providing COVID-19 testing and vaccine services.28 As the CDC’s website notes, “ICATT pharmacy sites provide vaccine services, while a subset of ICATT pharmacy sites provide both testing and vaccine services.”29






The $2.1 billion contract award CVS received in June of 2022 might help to explain why CVS ran a propaganda piece just a few months later, featuring then-CDC Director Rochelle Walensky visiting a CVS to receive her COVID-19 bivalent booster.30

If $2.1 billion in potential government contract money is not shocking enough, a different government website shows a similar federal contract with CVS, this one having a potential worth of $3.4 billion through 2025.31









Walgreens has also been on the government take. Two separate government spending websites show over $800 million in federal contract award money was awarded to Walgreen Co. in 2021:

Site 1: USASpending.gov32




Site 2: Federal Procurement Data System (fpds.gov)33




One of these government websites also shows federal government awards to Walgreen Co. topped $1 billion in 2022.34 This might help explain why Walgreens ran propaganda pieces pushing COVID-19 shots in kids at its pharmacies,35 and shamelessly showcased then-NIAID director Anthony Fauci receiving his COVID-19 booster at a Walgreens in October of that same year.36 Both of these Walgreens propaganda pieces were attributed to Walgreens’ affiliate, Walgreens Boots Alliance,37 which claims a presence in eight countries through its various consumer brands and disturbingly also “has a portfolio of healthcare-focused investments located in several countries, including China and the U.S.”38












Drug dealing, it seems, has always been a lucrative business, especially when the drug lord of your cartel is the federal government. Why in the world would any supplier want to promote or prescribe a cheap and readily available drug – like Ivermectin – if doing so would throw a wrench into potential billion-dollar cash-cow contracts with the federal government? The simple answer: If the supplier values its profits over patients, it wouldn’t.

Could this explain why doctors like Dr. Mary Tally Bowden – despite prevailing in a lawsuit which required the FDA to remove its now infamous tweet maligning Ivermectin – still can’t get certain Walgreens stores to fill her prescriptions for Ivermectin?39

As it turns out, the answer to former CNN anchor Chris Cuomo’s question, “Why were Americans given bad information about Ivermectin?” is likely to be far darker and run far deeper than most Americans want to imagine. In light of mounting calls for accountability, the backup plan for those who pushed the government’s lethal narrative may now be – like Cuomo – to admit mistakes were made and play dumb while trying to frame the human carnage as limited (as the New York Times recently attempted to do).40
