    I’ve largely stayed away from the ivermectin news after learning it isn’t used to treat or prevent viral infections, as it seemed like a waste of time but is it really less concerning to take ivermectin indefinitely to prevent infection than it is to take the vaccine? Like who is this for, people that are scared of the virus, take it seriously, and are anti-vaccine?

    i think that's exactly it but i'm still not sure. i skimmed the reddit for it yesterday and they seem to base their trusting it on some paper they found from a study in india of like 94 people it was used on. i don't know man, i can't even pretend to understand the mentality of an anti-vaxxer anymore

    It’s for the own the libs crowd imo. There is definitely some background fear of the virus, but none that they can publicly show and not enough to get them to take the vaccine. So ivermectin is their golden goose: they get to not get vaccinated AND not get Covid, the ultimate owning of the libs and the Biden admin’s get vaccinated campaign.

    It’s possible ivermectin actually works, but no large double blind trials have really shown conclusively. And the problem is people are taking it in any form they can find and have no idea what the correct or safe dose to take is. So instead they’re shitting out tapeworms that might actually be the lining of their intestines.

    I'm supposed to be in Iceland right now, but took a responsible approach and cancelled.

    Just left my day of appointments. Doctor ordered an antibody test just to make sure I do have them. I’m getting a booster no matter what. But he was telling us his basically best friend from med school is pretty famous for being an infection disease doctor that helped create the vaccine! We told him to just please say thank you. That’s so amazing.

    Surprise, surprise, he was taking ivermectin.

    Also, the dynamic of their relationship as described here fascinates me.

  20. The "i won't take the vax but still believe enough about the virus to take all these other fox cocktails" group is ... depressing

    I think the most depressing part is that we know exactly who is to blame for all of this and yet there are zero repercussions. As that twitter thread above shows, the ivermectin stuff began as a grift by the same people shilling HCQ and the Joe Rogan's of the world.

    We know who is responsible for leading so many to their deaths...and nothing will happen.
