Kenai Peninsula Borough Mayor Charlie Pierce reiterated his comments regarding alternative medicine in a recent appearance on KSRM’s Sound Off. Last week, he criticized the Central Peninsula Hospital COO and commented on how a friend of his, who had COVID-19, almost died after using a ventilator.
Pierce promotes FrontlineMDS.com saying that he is advocating for an expansion of medicinal options for COVID patients:
“Call it creative medicine. Call it what you want. I call it saving lives. Here’s where I’m at. I think there’s hearts and heads here at the table and we’re making decisions about them and what I would want my doctor to do is to look at all options across the spectrum and look at the research that’s been done. If you would take the time to look at Dr. Paul Marik, I did. You get the one part of the medical establishment that says, ‘well that’s quackery, that doesn’t matter. That doctor is a quack.’ Well that doctor is saving lives. He’s got numbers to demonstrate that. What do you say to that?”
In promoting alternative medicine, Pierce takes aim at the COVID-19 vaccine:
“The solution has been the vaccine. Here’s what we’re going do, we’re going to save America, we’re going to get the vaccine. Everybody has to get it. Most won’t get it. That’s probably where they’re locking some horns right now and having some great disagreements at the table about a two-cent medication. Ivermectin is very inexpensive medication. It’s really very inexpensive and applied or administered with some other vitamins that are readily available as well, the cause and the results from it has been very favorable based on the studies that I’ve looked at.”
Pierce said that he thinks that Central Peninsula Hospital needs to expand its availability of treatments, citing their full capacity due to COVID-19 cases currently.
