Sure the dolts eating horse paste are dumb, but you're just conflating those people with any discussion at all of Ivermectin as a potential therapy, which is just blatantly partisan not to mention anti-scientific. You're so rabidly against this chemical for some bizarre, bizarre reason.

And btw, nobody credible is suggesting it's use as an *alternative* to getting vaccinated, it's being used to lessen and treat symptoms in people who already got covid, which many vaccinated people are still getting. So if they're vaccinated, and they have bad symptoms, it may help them get better and stave off further progression of the disease. That's the hypothesis, now stop frothing at the mouth and let science occur.

nuh uh
