It literally isn't. There is a horse deworming medication that *contains* it. Can you not understand the difference? Ivermectin itself is literally approved by the FDA for use in humans for other ailments, it just hasn't been studied formally yet for treating covid. Calling it "horse medicine" is just a lazy politically motivated smear. Keep politics out of it, I care about what works. If there's evidence this works in treating symptoms, why just arbitrarily smear it? Oh yeah because you don't like somebody who suggested it and you gotta DUNK on em! Horse medicine lol!!
Different medications can treat different things, in different dosages. Ivermectin has not been studied for treating covid, since it's such a new disease. However it does show promise based on currently available data. Many doctors *are* prescribing it for particularly sick patients, after other options have failed.
TLDR: Stop being such a mindlessly partisan douchebag. Also nice rolling stone reference hahaha wtf.

Did you read the article it was about patients taking horse deworming medicine and taking so much of the hospital from over dosing that gun victims were leaving.

The extreme right won’t take a vaccine but they will take a horse deworming drug all in the name of politics.
Ivermectin requires a prescription for human use in the US. But the right fanatics taking it and yes many of them Trump fanatics are turning to horse deworming for it. And they are getting very sick over it and taking up already stressed hospital support.
The irony is even if even remotely correct (and we heard the same claims in the anti-parasite medicine hydroxychloroquine) both ivermectin and the moderna/Pfizer vaccine disrupt RNA in the host cells.
