If it's good enough for my pig, it's good enough for me.

If you can't see that both sides politicized COVID you are too deep in the hole.

Imagine if doctors were prescribing it instead of fake science requiring them not to.

Please link me to double blind, randomized controlled trials looking at the effect of ivermectin in covid patients compared to standard of care, I must have missed them

It beggars belief how people are willing to take livestock medicine but not a human vaccine


One is proven to be safe long term, one...nope. I’m not anti-vax, but I also won’t pretend that I know what the long term effects of the vaccine are. Even educated speculation is subject to issues.

That’s kind of the point. Why has this been slow played to the point of it being buried by the WHO, CDC, NIH, etc.

Again, I’m not anti-vax, but the way this has ;hasn’t) been done defies logic (unless suppression is the goal).

So one person went to the hospital?

More people go to the hospital with objects shoved up their arse.

I had to pick up a few things at a hardware store today. They have a relatively large pet section and some large animal items.

Sure enough for $19.95 you can buy a tube of Ivermectin that will treat up to a 1250 lb horse.

Look, I think the ivermectin stuff seems ridiculous, but they say 70% and never give a number. I wager that is because the number would not create the sensationalism that 70% does. That is bullshite journalism.


The death due to vaccine is just as miniscule though. Sooo, how do you debate that with this Ivermectin deal using your exact logic in your own quote?

Big Pharma paid those people to overdose on Ivermectin because they want you to take the DNA altering vaccine!

That is the problem right there. The idiots are not converting the dose based on their weight. 3mg should be enough for a 200 lb human for a month of protection.

At least 70% of the recent calls have been related to ingestion of livestock or animal formulations of ivermectin purchased at livestock supply centers. 85% of the callers had mild symptoms, but one individual

So 10 people have called poison control.

Of that 70% were about ivermectin (10 x .7 = 7)

And of those 85% were mild, but 1 was told to seek care (7 x .85 = 1)

And that warranted a ginned up news crisis?

But a million VAERS reports = meh

What I don’t see given in that article is the number of calls, and I strongly suspect there’s a reason behind that.

Which of these carries more impact:

“70% of our calls statewide have been about Ivermectin.”

“We’ve had 7 phone calls statewide about Ivermectin.”
