"Do you want us to try and fight like we're at the beaches of Normandy? Or do you want me to tell what a lot of people do and say -- oh, go home and ride it out and go to the ER when your lips turn blue," Karas said. Karas said that he started to use ivermectin in the jail population starting in November on "high-risk patients over 40." The doctor defended his practice ,saying no deaths have been reported due to Covid-19 out of the 531 cases in the jail.
CNN called the Washington County Sheriff's Office to confirm the number of Covid-19 patients treated at the jail and was referred back to Karas, since he is contracted to provide medical services. Calls to the doctor's office have not been returned.
The Arkansas Medical Board has opened an investigation into the matter, Meg Mirivel, a spokesperson for the Arkansas Department of Health, told CNN. Due to the ongoing investigation the department was not able to comment further.
The sheriff's department declined to comment further or provide additional information about inmate care. The Sheriff's office defended the practices to the local paper, saying all treatment is "voluntary."
"They are able to refuse any medication they're offered. Even with the vaccine, it's all voluntary," Chief Deputy Jay Cantrell told the Northwest Arkansas Democrat-Gazette.
"I believe it's the county and the sheriff's constitutional duty to provide the detainees adequate and appropriate medical care." Madison told CNN.
"No one -- including incarcerated individuals -- should be subject to medical experimentation," Holly Dickson, executive director of the ACLU of Arkansas, said in a statement, adding that the sheriff "has a responsibility to provide food, shelter and safe, appropriate care to incarcerated people."
In a CDC health advisory issued Thursday, the agency said the use of ivermectin can result in "gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea.
Overdoses are associated with hypotension and neurologic effects such as decreased consciousness, confusion, hallucinations, seizures, coma, and death."
Looks like a cheap hit job.
Just because Ivermectin works is no reason to take money out of Phziers hands or board members like Fauci.
Medicine should be about what works, not what the politicians in Washington tell everyone.
We are living 1984.
Well, if no one should be subject to experimental treatments, then they should not offer the vaccine. Just saying.
The chart shows the Delta Variant new cases dropping off a cliff: https://covid.cdc.gov/covid-data-tracker/#trends_dailycases
DID ANY OF THEM GET COVID? OR RECOVER WHEN GIVEN IT?
Or does that not matter?
Here is a quote from the doctor from another article on this a few days ago. “I am proud of our track record in both of my clinics and at the jail in particular, where not one single patient of the five hundred plus who have followed our plan of care has been hospitalized, intubated or died.”
Remember, President Trump worked hard to lower prescription prices.
Maybe this entire COVID thing is Big Pharma trying to make up the lost profits, and flip the bird to Trump.
Anything’s possible these days!
Well there is that.
There is another article posted about him here. He has treated 500, zero deaths, intubations, hospitalizations
“The doctor also recorded the station’s interview with his own camera and posted it online.”
Any conservative who DOES NOT do the above deserves the result.
FDA “warnings “ and CDC “guidelines” are NOT laws.
Did any of them get sick enough that they needed to be hospitalized? Did any of them die from COVID?
Seems like results should matter.
I’m surprised to see that FayetteNam still has some rebellious redneck in it.
The University politically correct effete elite pretty much run the show there.
Commies only want the vaccine because the vaccine puts BIG BUCKS into BIG PHARMA who then gives the money to the Dem party
What do you suppose ZERO deaths means? It means they had it, recovered, and didn't die. Shouldn't you be in school today?
Bullshit. It's widely used on humans in Africa for River Blindness. It has also been shown to be very effective in treating Covid-19. Over 30 studies show its effectiveness:

Why is the MSM and the gov't hiding these results?
Exactly, that’s the scam. 76 trombones led the the big parade...
bite my ass you smarmy little pissant
