### Elsevier, In Vitro Ivermectin Research

- **Episode:** [1302: Mink Road](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1302-mink-road.md)
- **Published:** 2020-12-10
- **Time:** 1:05:45–1:09:52

Research published in Elsevier journals as early as June 2020 indicated that ivermectin could kill coronaviruses in a laboratory setting. Despite these findings, the drug has faced significant resistance from major health organizations and social media platforms, which have removed content promoting its use. The drug's long history of safety and low cost are cited as reasons for its potential as a global solution.

### Low-Dose Radiotherapy, Alternative COVID-19 Treatments

- **Episode:** [1239: Beaches are Open](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1239-beaches-are-open.md)
- **Published:** 2020-05-07
- **Time:** 46:08–48:19
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1239-beaches-are-open/chapter/low-dose-radiotherapy-alternative-covid-19-treatments.md

Expert Rod Adams is advocating for the use of low-dose lung radiotherapy to treat COVID-19 pneumonia, a method used in the 1950s that has since fallen out of favor. Other potential treatments being explored include the use of a hydrogen peroxide-like spray in the lungs of intubated patients. These low-cost alternatives are reportedly being ignored by the medical establishment in favor of more profitable vaccine development.

Controversial research on a transmissible version of the H5N1 bird flu is set to be published in major scientific journals. The hosts also discuss the high costs of academic publishing, noting that subscriptions to journals like Nature can cost $40,000 per year while publishers like Elsevier charge significant fees to both authors and readers.

### Malicious Code Trends, PC Magazine, Neanderthal Redheads

- **Episode:** [13: Turned on by Esther Dyson](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/13-turned-on-by-esther-dyson.md)
- **Published:** 2008-01-19
- **Time:** 10:29–13:12
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/13-turned-on-by-esther-dyson/chapter/malicious-code-trends-pc-magazine-neanderthal-redheads.md

A review of old notes mentions Michael Upslow and the future of malicious code, referencing Dutch publisher Elsevier and PC Magazine editor Neil Rubenking. The topic shifts to a scientific claim that Neanderthals were redheads. This leads to an observation about social discrimination against "gingers" in the United Kingdom, potentially linked to historical tensions with the Irish and Scots.
