I get a certain evil pleasure out of knowing all those raging conspiracy theorist kiddies who always comment on my threads about how COVID is just the flu and other nonsense and then rage quit calling me a sheep are now out there taking livestock medication and dying (or getting very sick).

But yyyyeeeeaaaaa the vaccine is the real risk ::rolls eyes::

I had to have a talk about Ivermectin with a family member. I straight up asked her if she has worms and if not, why she wanted to take horse dewormer.

@sergeantcat @freemo tokyo medical association came out and said its worth looking in to; african nations that used it have much lower covid death rates. but you enjoy being a smug shitposter.

@icedquinn

No one is claiming that ivermectin might not have a role to play in some doctor orchestrated treatments. There is, however, a huge leap from treating a vaccinated person who had a breakthrough infection, and one who thinks the vaccine is a hoax and is injecting himself with cow dewormer because they think its safer and healthy as a preventative on its own.

@sergeantcat

@freemo @icedquinn @sergeantcat As I have said elsewhere, keeping the treatment from being used is why people are, in rare cases, turning to animal medicines. Doctors won't prescribe ivermectin, and pharmacists won't fill the prescription either. If you're as smart as you claim you should understand the science, but we both know you *trust* the science.

@freemo @icedquinn @sergeantcat If it indeed has "a role to play in some doctor orchestrated treatments" then why not ALLOW doctors to prescribe it, and ALLOW pharmacies to fill it, and ALLOW discussion on ivermectin in public forums online. But here you are pretending ivermectin is a horse dewormer, then doubling back after getting called out and claiming it has "a role to play" which is it????

@coyote

Doctors are allowed to prescribe it. If they do it is called an "off label use". The reason pharmacists arent filling the prescriptions is largely because the supply is nearly impossible to get exactly because doctors prescribing it has skyrocketed. Its not some evil plot trying to keep doctors from prescribing it.

There **is** good reason why it has to be prescribed under off label use however (which means a doctor must first try other approved treatments before moving on to it). That is because we have first line solutions that are safer and have undergone far more trial and scrutiny, and has a much much higher theraputic index.

@freemo @icedquinn @sergeantcat that's a flat out lie and you know it :) kill yourself you verbalizing fuck :)
