      It didn’t starve. He thinks ivermectin cures covid and accidentally treated his brainworms. This is an extreme example of dumb luck.

        Wasn’t the worm found years before the pandemic?

        Yep, way before:

        Several doctors noticed a dark spot on the younger Mr. Kennedy’s brain scans and concluded that he had a tumor, he said in a 2012 deposition reviewed by The New York Times. Mr. Kennedy was immediately scheduled for a procedure at Duke University Medical Center by the same surgeon who had operated on his uncle, he said.
