An avalanche of misinformation about the antiparasitic drug ivermectin’s ability to treat COVID-19 has caused a series of national problems, from increased calls to poisoning centers to a shortage of the medicine itself.
Patients have become desperate for a treatment that’s most commonly used for livestock and have taken their disputes over ivermectin with hospitals to court.
Disinformation has flooded the internet, where dozens of Facebook groups centered around ivermectin remain active despite insufficient evidence that the medicine works in treating people for COVID-19.

Coincidentally (or not), Pfizer’s drug shares at least one mechanism of action as Ivermectin - an anti-parasitic used in humans for decades, which functions as a protease inhibitor against Covid-19, which researchers speculate “could be the biophysical basis behind its antiviral efficiency.”
Lo and behold, Pfizer’s new drug - which some have jokingly dubbed “Pfizermectin,” is described by the pharmaceutical giant as a “potent protease inhibitor.”

As soon as the rebranded “Pfizermectin” is rolled out, it will be hailed as a miracle drug at “only” $100 a pill.
See above.
Gee, the studies at that link don't look like disinformation to me...
Yes, like making people think covid will be eradicated if we take the vaccine.

Great meme Wayne did you make it yourself?
You are correct. All the MSM are lying about this. They don’t want an end to the Covid Chaos.
The Babylon Bee beat reality to the story.....again.
“You are not a horse. You are not a cow. Seriously, y’all. Stop it,”
Will go down in history as one of the most deceptive, arrogant, snarky, metrosexual adolescent government tweets.
...“And the idea that individuals can manage their own health, if they read a lot, gather information and make their own decisions is really powerful.”
