An Arkansas jail and its health-care provider are facing criticisms of “medical experimentation” because the jail’s medical staff has been treating covid-19 patients with ivermectin, a drug commonly used for deworming livestock.
Washington County Justice of the Peace Eva Madison (D) said she heard reports of the practice Tuesday after a county employee visited a Karas Health Care coronavirus testing site at the Washington County Detention Center in Fayetteville and was prescribed ivermectin despite testing negative for the coronavirus.
Karas is one of three health-care providers accessible to employees on the county health-care plan. It operates in the jail as Karas Correctional Health.
“When this employee told me that, I thought, ‘Our sheriff has common sense. He’ll know what’s going on,’ ” Madison told The Washington Post on Wednesday. Madison said she has a good rapport with Washington County Sheriff Tim Helder but was dismayed when he confirmed her suspicions — and defended the practice.

I wish this had happened in my state, I am looking for a new physician!
Lol. Virtually all of medicine is experimentation. “Let’s try this and see what happens.” It certainly isn’t engineering or any other applied science. In fact the term “medical science” itself is just a propaganda tool made up to fool people. When fully half of the medical papers released are fraudulent then the situation in medicine is a disaster.
“ The Democrats are afraid of ivermectin it kills Parasites”
Ha!

Had HCQ and/or Ivermectin been suggested as a treatment in February 2020, millions of lives could have been saved. Big Pharma did not like it and Fauci was very negative about these drugs, so lives were lost because of money. Fauci is responsible for many deaths.
Did the WashPost send anyone to India to ask them about their use or Ivermectin? Doubt it.

So it has come down to having to commit a crime in Arkansas in order to get properly treated for the ‘rona.
What a world 🤪
The whole vaccine debacle is a medical experiment…
They should tell the MEdia to f,,, off, they are treating these prisoners to prevent an outbreak of scabies. Or bedbugs, or head lice.
Yes this “deadly drug” is prescribed for human use.
Just went mainstream in Japan.
Personally I believe no journalist should be allowed to use it,
Livestock drug? Azithromycin can be used on farm animals but it’s also an antibiotic for humans. Ivermectin is also used by humans.
$10…….the ZIVERDO Pack costs $2.95 and did a marvelous job in India
What a fake and obviously co-ordinated headline.
Billions of doses have been given to people over the last 35 years.
Need to see if the Tractor Supply Store has some of this...
so is COVID-19 really a Parasite ?
Not to mention the jab causes those things when it’s used as prescribed
“ The Democrats are afraid of ivermectin it kills Parasites”
Best anti-Ivermectin retort yet!
Total BS article. A real hit piece.
No where does it say the drug was sourced from a feed store. Ivermectin is available on prescription as Stromectol, and is used nearly worldwide for several human conditions.
This is what was being used.
Pass the word to thwart the press, which usually holds back the fact that:
There are pills of of Ivermectin manufactured specifically for humans for human diseases. To use such old drugs off label is done frequently.
