Too bad the adherents can't feel the pain.

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.I started listening to the Dr. testify at committee hearing yesterday about Ivetmectin and it's extremely frustrating because it's a situation where you can't even get agreeance on a basic practice of administering a relatively safe medicine for treatment of covid. Some say it's politics, the others say bad science. There was a deliberate attempt at the beginning, months ago, to misrepresent the effectiveness of meds by some data company in Illinios, but that has nothing to do with now. Either these Dr.s are credible or not. There are two physician groups associated with these claims, The Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance and Physicians for Civil Defense. If physican groups are indeed credible than the elected officials who discounted them should be recalled from office and never allowed to serve in office again. Peoples' lives are at stake. I find it absolutely INFURIATING that there is such lack of clarity and cooperation. Calling people Qanon or spreading info that is untrue about Ivermectin like KKGator did below might stem from just simple misundetstanding, but it is not without some level of consequence. I probably shouldn't have brought this up under this topic anyway yesterday, but I read this right after listening to the Dr.s and was not feeling positively and just reacted.

Now draw a picture that makes us laugh about mass denial of effectiveness of Invermectin for months.

Another bunch of qanon bullshit.
It's primarily a medication to rid animals of parasites.
It can cause lethal side-effects in humans.
Please stop.
@KKGator What is it exactly YOU do for a living? Are you a Dr. ? Please present a pic of your medical degree. Dr. has testified in government hearing on it. Why r you so self-assured? You spend a lot of time in the field with Drs and patients or are you just some blowhard bully who thinks he/she knows it all with nothing else to do than state false medical science? If Invermectin was so dangerous why is it so commonly used around the world in humans?
@Flowerwall Insulting me is not doing anything for your credibility.
@KKGator So you're not a Dr.?
@Flowerwall Are you?
@KKGator No, not a Dr. But I listen to Dr.s and don't discount them right away when they talk about Invermectin. Why do you feel so comfortable doing that?
"Ivermectin is a beneficial and safe antiparasitic drug used for a wide variety of parasitic diseases in humans and animals. Ivermectin is helping to eliminate onchocerciasis (river blindness), a malady that has plagued millions in the world's poorest communities."
"ivermectin has been used extensively to control onchocerciasis with 1.4 billion treatments so far."..."Over 300 million people take ivermectin each year. To date, ivermectin has been shown to be a safe and well-tolerated drug. Most adverse reactions are mild and temporary, such as loss of appetite, headache, muscle aches, lack of energy, and fever. There have been a small number of severe adverse events and even some deaths in humans treated with ivermectin in onchocerciasis-control programs. The reason for these events is unknown, but they might be linked to the presence of large numbers of other parasites that are killed off in treated patients." This is information from the national poison control center. [poison.org]
