Rand Paul insists that ivermectin, a drug used on humans to treat maladies including intestinal parasites and head lice, isn’t being studied as a possible treatment for coronavirus patients because of politics.
“The hatred for Trump deranged these people so much, that they’re unwilling to objectively study it,” Paul told a group in northern Kentucky late last week. “So someone like me that’s in the middle on it, I can’t tell you because they will not study ivermectin. They will not study hydroxychloroquine without the taint of their hatred for Donald Trump.”
Joe Rogan also went on social media Wednesday to inform fans he contracted COVID-19 and list the medications he took, including monoclonal antibodies, prednisone and an antiparasitic drug that has recently prompted federal health warnings.
“We immediately threw the kitchen sink at it. All kinds of meds,” Rogan explained. “Monoclonal antibodies, ivermectin, Z-pak, prednisone, everything. And I also got an anti-D drip and a vitamin drip.”
“Here we are on Wednesday and I feel great,” he explained. “I really only had one bad day. Sunday sucked, but Monday was better, Tuesday felt better than Monday and today, I feel good.”
He added: “I actually feel pretty f— good.” Rogan said he underwent such treatments for three days. Video below:
Television and film actress Kirstie Alley, 70, also revealed on Twitter that she used Ivermectin and a cocktail of other drugs that helped her with her Covid-19 battle!
The Food and Drug Administration DA and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have urged consumers against the use of ivermectin as a COVID-19 treatment after poison control centers nationwide reported a sharp uptick in people facing serious health effects after taking animal formulations of the drug.
The FDA had previously issued concerns over self-medication with ivermectin intended for animals, noting some people might mistakenly believe the drug can substitute for ivermectin intended for humans.
But, while the mainstream media described the use of ivermectin as dangerous, CDC guidelines from their own website show that refugees from Afghanistan had to take ivermectin to get into the United States!

And for those interested because there is no date on the page…
This showed up on April 3, 2021.

Ivermectin is regularly taken, by humans, for both prophylaxis and treatment of parasitic infections. None of this is related to covid-19 but the claims that the drug is dangerous for people are not real and CDC can confirm!

“Paul is wrong.
The main reason is if there was a treatment for Covid, they couldn’t authorize an experimental drug.”
Paul is —right—; anything under an EUA means there’s no other treatment.
BUT-—
what happens when the 3 brands of shots aren’t under EUA anymore?
You had me concerned for your sanity for a minute there before I read your comment under the referenced posting.
Whew! What a relief!
I read CDC article and it says if infected with LOA LOA which is Loa loa infection
Loa loa is a filarial helminth infection transmitted in the Central African rainforests by bites from the Chrysops fly, which can affect the skin and eyes
EXCELLENT question, Andrew. If Ivermectin is for horses, why does the CDC require it for refugees???
ivermectin is used for a wide range of human and animal problems
Joe Rogan took the form of Ivermectin that is prescribed to humans all the time. He did not take a “horse dewormer” or any kind of paste. The media is lying. As usual.
Here’s how the media works:
“Some snarky faggot or woman can go on Twitter and say “LOL DUMB JOE EAT HORSE WORM DRUGS HAHA HORSEY JOE THE HORESY HORSE MAN HAHAHA,” and then that becomes the official CNN narrative, which means that every devout liberal in the country repeats it verbatim without thinking about it.”
All I would add to that is that it looks like there are “conservatives” who are also willing to repeat it without thinking about it.
I have a real life complaint about this - my FILs memory care had an outbreak of scabies from a new resident. In addition to treating all the bedding, mattress,clothes, they had to apply a treatment cream, head to toe for every patient (some of which are not compliant) twice and soothing cream every other day between treatments. It was a month total of daily applying cream to every patient (20).
Ivermectin would have been so much easier. Plus my FIL who is a very private man, was humiliated by the whole ordeal.
Good gosh, I see completely how that would be a problem. Sigh. Medicine sure isn’t perfect...
That’s not the news. The news is who told them they needed Ivermectin, and who was it made it available to them.

That's an oversimplification.
Apart from the medically inactive paste/flavoring, some horse pastes do have extra active ingredients and those should not be used by humans. Others only have Ivermectin, and they are safe for humans. The active ingredients are always marked right on the package.
The plungers in the horse paste products do have tick marks for 250 pound increments, but they are also subdivided in 50 pound increments, and a locking device on the plunger allows its movement to be limited. So, you can set the dosage limit for 50, 100, 150, 200, 250, and any other weight up to the maximum.
It's not idiot proof, but it is idiot resistant. The ability to read, count, and do simple arithmetic is required which leaves out many publik skool graduates.
It’s good enough for them but not us.
Just like big bad orange man’s HCQ that wasn’t under government contract with Gates and Fauxi. Follow the $$$$$$$.
