I was here long before you sonny boy. Mind your manners when you speak to your betters.

Trump does not promote ivermectin but he does not want to ban it. This is my viewpoint as well.

“Ivermectin doesn’t do anything for covid.”

It also does nothing for cancer.

And condoms do nothing for pregnancy.

If Pfizer had a patent on Ivermectin, the Govt would be handing it out like candy.

Except it would be $100 a pill instead of $1 a pill.

“It is for animal use.”

It is used to treat animals, but IT WAS INVENTED FOR HUMAN USE. To prevent river blindness for people in India.

It’s for HUMANS, first and foremost.

It’s sold OTC here in TN. I get it down the road. You can’t just grab it off a shelf ‘cause the pharmacist gives you the correct dosage based on your weight.

“So Pfizer et al can use the FDA to keep the profits rolling in... “

Yup. Ivermectin scared big pharma when it was proven to help with Covid. But now that there’s proof of it being very effective with some types of cancer, they are terrified! Imagine losing all that money made in the Cancer Industrial Complex.

“Ivermectin doesn’t do anything for covid.”

“Here’s a review of all the studies on ivermectin with covid.”

LOL! I’m pretty sure those aren’t ALL the Ivermectin-Covid studies in the world. Seriously hyperbolic.

The authority to ban off-label uses was buried on page 3,542 of the 4,155-page omnibus appropriations bill

Of course it was. The grift that keeps on grifting.

Yep, a Brobdingnagian fart,,,,I figured right.

Ivermectin has saved thousands of Freepers lives.

A history of which you are unaware?

So much for having to be anyone’s better.

An affliction from which I do not suffer. I just take the drug.

My answer to that poster was meant to be read: “It is (sold over the counter) for animal use.”

Oh. Sorry. I read it from a different perspective.

I get so mad at my husband because he wouldn’t take Ivermectin when we both had Covid. He referred to it as horse paste. (He’s a scientist; he should know better than to believe the government narrative — at least researched it.) So I came down with Covid a few days after him, took IVM, and recovered a few days before him.

Off label uses of medicine is a very effective and common practice for doctors. This will cripple their ability to help patients.

People get better almost always from Covid. It doesn’t matter what you eat or drink since it’s just the flu.

I’m sure you did not read the article at all so therefore you have no idea what it says. I did.
