Prescriptions for Ivermectin, a deworming drug that has become popular as a Covid treatment despite no evidence it works, increased 24 times from pre-pandemic levels in August, according to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Ivermectin has been touted by some as a cure for Covid-19. It was originally created an antiparasitic treatment for horses but has been given approval for human use in certain instances.

More than 88,000 prescriptions were administered by pharmacists in the week ending 13 August, according to a report by the CDC, a massive spike from pre-pandemic levels. The CDC also said there is no conclusive evidence that the drug is a suitable or effective treatment for Covid-19.

In vitro, the active ingredients in Ivermectin can have an anti-viral effect, but only at doses high enough to suppress cellular reproduction - damaging and possibly killing cells... and it is nondiscriminatory unlike the virus. The ultimate expression of cutting off one's nose to spite one's face.

Of course gasoline can do the same thing but no one us reccomending to do that.

You know these are the very people that cause manufacturers like Tide to lable their products with a label that says DO NOT EAT.
