Here we go with the ''animal medicine'' again.
It might be because that is exactly what I was referring to: people who can't get prescriptions for Ivermectin (because no ethical physician would prescribe it for COVID, or because they don't know any better) mosey on down to the livestock supply, buy compounds that are made for use with horses, are specifically labeled as not being fit for human consumption, because they are formulations made for animals and not humans. That is what I was referring to with what I said: people buying and consuming horse dewormer instead of getting a free vaccine.
You know Ivermectin won a Nobel Prize in medicine for the treatment of infectious diseases, right? In humans. In 2015, if you want to look it up.
That the infectious diseases it focused on happened to be delivered by parasites, and that it can also be used for animals doesn't make it a ''horse dewormer''.
Let's break this down. First, a medicine can't win a Nobel Prize. Only humans. Second, the humans involved did not "win" the Nobel Prize. The two of them
shared it with another person who made a different discovery (they got half; she got half). Third, the medicine that they discovered was
Avermectin. Ivermectin is a derivative of that medicine. Fourth, Ivermectin was originally introduced as a veterinary drug. It wasn't until seven years later that clinical usage on humans began. Fifth, it doesn't "focus" (whatever the fuck that means) on "infectious diseases," it is an anti-parasitic. The "infection" is a parasitic worm, not a virus. That's what it does, kill off the worms. A dewormer, if you prefer. Ivermectin has been around for 46 years, and for the first 45 of them was never even considered as an immune system booster. I WONDER WHY THAT WOULD BE. Ironically, you have the answer rattling around in your head; just go back and read your earlier post about "natural immunity." HINT: it's different than anti-parasitics.
So there are five lies, which is a lot for two brief lines to carry. I don't believe that they are
your lies, but rather lies that you copied from some anti-vax source with one hand while furiously stroking your "IT'S A NOBEL PRIZE WINNER" boner with the other. There is a delicious irony in watching someone so invested in discrediting medical professionals deep throat the credibility of a Nobel Prize like it is a ventilator in the ICU -- a Prize that is awarded based on....wait for it....the opinions of medical professionals. Anti-vaxxers! What are you going to do?
That's the sort of dishonest comment someone who wanted to discredit it - and couldn't any other way - would put out. I'd suggest one way to start to regain the trust of the American people would be to stop lying.
...quoth the man who just repeated five lies by the anti-vax crowd.
