A Butler County judge ruled in favor of a woman last week who sought to force a hospital to administer Ivermectin — an animal dewormer that federal regulators have warned against using in COVID-19 patients — to her husband after several weeks in the ICU with the disease.
Butler County Common Pleas Judge Gregory Howard ordered West Chester Hospital, part of the University of Cincinnati network, to treat Jeffrey Smith, 51, with Ivermectin. The order, filed Aug. 23, compels the hospital to provide Smith with 30mg of Ivermectin daily for three weeks.-snip-
Julie Smith filed the lawsuit on behalf of her husband of 24 years. He tested positive for COVID-19 July 9, was hospitalized and admitted to the ICU July 15, and was sedated and intubated and placed on a ventilator Aug. 1. He later developed a secondary infection he’s still wrestling with as of Aug. 23, court records say. -snip-
Julie Smith found Ivermectin on her own and connected with Dr. Fred Wagshul, an Ohio physician who her lawsuit identifies as “one of the foremost experts on using Ivermectin in treating COVID-19.” He prescribed the drug, and the hospital refused to administer it.
A hospital spokeswoman said she can’t comment on litigation and federal patient privacy laws prevent her from commenting on any specifics of patient care.
Smith is represented by New York attorney Ralph Lorigo, the chairman of New York’s Erie County Conservative Party, who has successfully filed one similar case against a Chicago area hospital and two more in Buffalo. He did not respond to an email or phone call.
The Ohio lawsuit makes reference to the Front Line Covid-19 Critical Care Alliance, a nonprofit of which Wagshul is listed as a founding physician.

And they still refer to it as an animal dewormer, even though it has been given to almost 4 Billion People over 40 years and is FAR SAFER than Tylenol or Aspirin, Still!

It has also been administered to hundreds of thousands of Covid sufferers around the world with spectacularly beneficial results! And if one is persistent, one can find many studies posted online that describe such results.
“an animal dewormer” Tells you the bias or stupidity of the writer. Probably both.

BINGO! The truth is billions of dollars are being made by the pharmaceutical companies and their political and news media allies by foisting the vaccines on a gullible and neurotic population while attacking as unsafe and useless EVERYTHING else that has been proven to be effective against the virus.
ALWAYS FOLLOW THE MONEY FOR THE TRUE STORY.
As strong proponents of useless masking, and from their myriad lies told over the past 18 months, the CDC has lost all credibility for dispensing medical advice. Their mandates, recommendations and pleadings are not worthy of serious consideration and simply must be ignored ... completely.
Why do all the “reporters” spew the same lies about the drug? It is almost as if there is an agenda at work here.

“Will they EVER tell the truth about Ivermectin? It takes less than five minutes of internet research to get to the truth. Why do all the “reporters” spew the same lies about the drug? It is almost as if there is an agenda at work here.”
Even Wikipedia tells the truth on its human use, but how many of these ‘Animal Dewormer’ stories get ‘fact-checked’?
From the print edition: In Mississippi, 70 percent of recent calls to the poison control center were for ivermectin.
In Texas, they are up to 260 calls already this year at the South Texas Poison Center and expect to have 390 by the end of the year.
Recent studies found no evidence of the drug's ability to prevent covid, improve patient conditions, or prevent mortality.
