    This is, of course, utter nonsense. I know primary care docs who've been deluged with patient requests for #Ivermectin prescriotions, leaving aside the people getting it through veterinary sources.🙄https://twitter.com/Carl_Spackler99/status/1419309781886685184 …

    Are you forgetting that this is a prescription drug? Thus- the suggestion that discussion will affect patient behavior is completely false. It’s doctors who decide this care. Why are we afraid of society and individual doctors making decisions?

        I can get it over the counter at my feed store, and have a bottle of it in my tack shed for worming my goats. No prescription required.

        My old canine lady friend went up to heaven a couple of weeks ago, and I have some ivermectin left over. Not yet decided on the premium I need to charge the anti vaxxer brainiacs. Thinking about cost price plus an ass whooping!

        I was *lucky* enough to be in a room with 2 guys who were discussing Ivermectin: -It's the cure that *They* don't want us to know about -There's an internet Dr. who *knows* the secret -Vaccines are a Big Pharma conspiracy to suppress Ivermectin They were crazy so I kept shtum.

        Imagine the Together Trial completes in September and confirms that IVM is quite effective against C19.🥴So, are we at a point where we have to root for the virus? I don't think so. But, it would be a shit show for sure.

        I certainly disagree strongly with anyone suggesting Ivermectin as a substitute for vaccine. But it strikes me as a little bit odd that North American agencies are so reluctant to give it emergency authorization for use in case of breakthrough infections. It's 1/

        extremely safe in normal doses, and has some observation and lab evidence suggesting it might be helpful. To the extent that it helps, great. To the extent that it doesn't, that will reinforce the point that it's not a miracle drug and shouldn't to an excuse for vaccine 2/
