Ivermectin selling out nationwide

Friend of mine got tapeworms once. So she had to get a dewormer medicine and the make enemas with peanut oil. Lot of time on the ceramic chair. Wasn’t very happy about it.

About this a little reminder: wild boar meat must be well cooked, and anyway a rare pork steak isn’t always a good idea.

It is used in Humans, to treat parasites. At much lower doses, considering that a human is much smaller than a horse. It is toxic in larger doses, such as those used in horses.

Unfortunately, COVID is caused by a virus, not a parasite. It is not caused by roundworm or by a flea or lice.

There has been no studies that show it is effective. There is no data that shows that it is effective. There is no reasonable theory as to why it would work.

We have an effective and safe vaccine. (Several, in fact.) We have several treatment options.

Yes, you hear about a few people who have been on invemectin or hydroxychloroquine who were lucky in not catching Covid, or who recovered from Covid. But this doesn’t mean that it works, it means that a few people got lucky unrelated to the “meds” they were taking.

In case any of you are amused by pony fanfic…

"Y’all want me to what? " Applejack said, pushing her hat back on her head and adjusting her mask.

“Get me as many tubes of ivermectin as they’ll sell you.”

“Why didn’t you just get the vaccine? There ain’t been a pony hospitalized in ten months, on accountin’ we all lined up and got our shots.”

“What do I look like?” asked the man. “A sheep?”

And when the shopping center’s security guards arrived, AJ had him in a headlock, punching him in the head with a forehoof, like an equine Nolan Ryan. “Call me!” punch “A sheep!” punch “One!” punch “More!” punch “Time!” punch!

Radioactive pellets placed in your prostate is an approved treatment for humans.

I wouldn’t suggest you self administer with it to treat Covid.

He was effectively dead when admitted to hospital anyway, he just hadn’t realised it yet. Whether the hospital does, or does not, ‘these’ people are so trying.

What is spelling anyway?

From down the bottom of my narrow damp hole, it’s a well actually, optometrists fix your vision by prescribing glasses or contact lenses and can have equipment to screen for glaucoma and can probably detect other eye disease, but ophthalmologists are the medically-trained specialists who treat eye disease. So like Rand Paul but properly certified.
An ophthalmologist could test your vision and write a prescription but you’d have to go somewhere else to get to buy glasses.

You’re not alone. The tipping point was the rise of spam. That showed the bad actors that they had a powerful new tool to reach masses of people.

I just hope they’re not half-assing it; if they aren’t also getting their teeth floated and their sheath cleaned, they should find a better vet.

In this case a phrase which means, “One dose of dewormer for the donkey, one for me.”

I figured that out when I noticed the lack of DuckDuckGo web crawlers in my website logs.

There was an epic thread by Ryan Graney👩🏻‍🦰 (@RyanEGraney) / Twitter on Twitter where she was trolling some of the Ivermectin Facepalm groups, pretty hilarious stuff… but then this post was linked and it all got rather dark:

Kill your heroes. on Twitter: “I have bad news for people pushing ivermectin. And because it’s a bit gross; it will be in the following tweet. That was your content warning.” / Twitter

tl:dr; COVIDiots taking dat horse paste think they are passing worms… but in fact they are shitting themselves so hard that it’s taking the lining off of their small intestine :scream:

The child molester bleach people do that too.

“Once we put in the enemas, it was like night and day,” she says. “He started passing a lot of worms. Starting having a lot of biofilm-type stuff he’s passing. We’ve had several instances where he’s passed — I’m assuming it’s stool, but it was calcified, so it’s hard as a rock. You physically couldn’t cut it with a razor blade. I mean, it’s like a piece of rock coming out of him…Obviously, that wasn’t spaghetti from last week. That’s been in there a long time.”

It’s unclear what exactly these children are expelling, but it’s certainly not parasitic worms. Medical experts contacted by the Press suggest that it’s probably colon mucus and sloughed-off intestinal lining. It’s also unclear what kind of damage prolonged colonic injection of bleach can do to the insides of a child, let alone an adult, perhaps because no regulatory or research apparatus ever conceived of a home or workplace environment where bleach might accidentally shoot up someone’s rectum.

They’re trying to cut it with razor blades? They were playing with it? (Shudder)

The tone-policing by the Mother Jones author isn’t helping. We know who’s been selling the snake horse oil to the rubes: the same right-wing con men selling them all the other garbage related to COVID. The point now is to stop the suckers from indulging in this dangerous quackery, and ridicule helps.

On topics like this they are quite open that they do. They intentionally surface the latest evidence-based CDC advice at the top of any COVID-related search, for example. They did the same with election results and other existentially critical topics. One tiny thing being done right in a world being ruined by the tech companies, I guess.

The article contains lots of good information, but the author decided to frame it in lazy leftier-than-thou virtue signaling.
