A Maryland congressman who is a practicing anesthesiologist said on a radio show that he prescribed a medication typically used to treat parasites in livestock and humans as a treatment for COVID-19.
Republican Rep. Andy Harris, who represents Maryland’s 1st District, made the comments during a call-in radio program that he and his wife, Nicole, co-hosted last month on WCBM, an AM radio station in the Baltimore area, The Washington Post reported. However, Harris said on the program that he couldn’t find a pharmacist who would fill it.
“It’s gotten bad. … The pharmacists are just refusing to fill it,” Harris said on the “Casey & Company” show on Sept. 17. He was responding to a call from a 63-year-old man who said he and his 56-year-old wife had opted not to be vaccinated. The caller said he wanted to use ivermectin a couple of times a week to boost his immune system but his doctor objected.

Interesting. Medical University of South Carolina is supposedly doing a legitimate study on Ivermectin.
It appears the university didn’t get the memo from Fauci or CornPop stating that they couldn’t talk about or use the stuff.
Curious to see how it plays out. If the study shows that Ivermectin works, will they be threatened with losing accreditation, losing funding, etc?
I guess all the folks that have used Ivermectin and HCQ, successfully, since this thing started are mere fantasies.
Like the woman in Buffalo, in her 60s, in a coma, family has to sue the hospital twice for her to get the treatment. She walks out of the hospital after getting the Ivermectin protocol. Nothing to see here. Move along.
CBS gaslighting. There was no reason to bring up the use of Ivermectin to treat parasites in livestock.
Ivermectin, ‘Wonder drug’ from Japan: the human use perspective Feb. 10, 2011 - ncbi.nlm.nih.govDiscovered in the late-1970s, the pioneering drug ivermectin, a dihydro derivative of avermectin—originating solely from a single microorganism isolated at the Kitasato Intitute, Tokyo, Japan from Japanese soil—has had an immeasurably beneficial impact in improving the lives and welfare of billions of people throughout the world.
(snip)
There are few drugs that can seriously lay claim to the title of ‘Wonder drug’, penicillin and aspirin being two that have perhaps had greatest beneficial impact on the health and wellbeing of Mankind. But ivermectin can also be considered alongside those worthy contenders, based on its versatility, safety and the beneficial impact that it has had, and continues to have, worldwide—especially on hundreds of millions of the world’s poorest people.
Thanks! Good to know. I hadn't heard about that. I will pass it along.
“...he prescribed a medication typically used to treat parasites in livestock...”
Such A-Holes and completely dishonest in their caricature of ivermectin...
Well if you can’t get it what’s the use otherwise.
His "doctor" is not a doctor.
He's a corporate quack.

They ignore the fact there are plenty of cross-species drugs. Cripes.
Further ivermectin was developed as a human drug first. Guess what, they did animal trials on it then.
Further in many cases the drugs for animals and people can be/are made at the same facilities.
Where I live you can get Ivermectin at the local farm supply store and many people have taken advantage of the supply.
“There was no reason to bring up the use of Ivermectin to treat parasites in livestock.”
Thank you. That popped out at me, too.
In pill form, or the paste only?
Sure there was. Big Pharma pays their CBS propaganda outfit generously to repeat the talking point.
Andy Harris is very transparent. He spends at least one hour a week with Casey and Elliott on the WCBM.
Easily the most accessible politician I’ve ever known.
