    Now I’m convinced these #ivermectin “frontline doctors” are astroturf, just like the #Hydroxychloroquine “frontline doctors.” https://twitter.com/Bertie_222/status/1338324344863248385 …pic.twitter.com/b3yg9h7e60

        They’re using EXACTLY the same bad arguments, have a bunch of unconvincing studies, and are invoking bad epidemiological arguments comparing countries a lot like those used by the #Hydroxychloroquine “frontline doctors.”https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/hcqtrial-com-astroturf-and-disinformation-about-hydroxychloroquine-and-covid-19-on-steroids/ …

        I don't doubt you believe that. I'm curious what you think they are getting out of it. The guy who hasn't seen his family since March needs an ego boost? Seems like he is already beloved by his family and colleagues. You don't believe doctors have any sense of what works?

        An ICU doc went in front of congress and gave an impassioned speech last week that data on it should be reviewed (because congress does that?) and that furthered a lot of miracle cure rhetoric.

        I suspect, and hope, that as the vaccines become widely used and show their efficacy, these witch doctors will retreat into the background or go back to selling penis-enhancing supplements.

        An attack by association (ivermectin and HCQ) should be beneath the dignity of a physician and scientist. IVM has gone up against HCQ in several trials,; it always wins. IVM has an unassailable safety record. FLCCC isn't SELLING anything. They are trying to save lives.

        You posted the excerpt about the FLCCC paper as though the EXCERPT proves something. WTH? Did you READ the paper? No. You made a VERY SERIOUS CHARGE based on your pre-conceived bias. For your followers' sake please look at the research. Be responsible.https://twitter.com/Hoytster/status/1338363741809860608 …

        Since 1987 there have been Mass Drug Administrations of ivermectin to fight onchocerciasis (river blindness) and filariasis (elephantiasis). 4+ billion doses have been taken by billion(s) of people, 540 million people in 2019. Ivermectin is a fabulous blessing to those people.💖
