The right-wing cartoonist Ben Garrison says he has a "rough" case of COVID-19 and is treating it with ivermectin and beet juice, according to Gizmodo.
Garrison, known for his cartoons strongly supportive of Donald Trump, told the outlet in an email Sunday that he and his wife had been sick for about two weeks with the coronavirus, which they believe they picked up in a restaurant.
Garrison wrote to the outlet that he and his wife, both in their 60s, were drinking beet juice as well as "taking Ivermectin and various vitamins including a lot of Zinc ." Beets have many health benefits, as Insider's Ashley Laderer reported, but they have not been proved to treat or prevent COVID-19.

Prayers up for an excellent cartoonist and political analyst.
Are any cartoonists pro-Biden? Pro-Democrat?
Prayers tonight. Stay healthy Ben.
Prayers for a Refuah Shlemah!
There are PLENTY of the little Mittweasels.
I find it interesting that Garrison did an Ivermectin cartoon just a while ago (beginning of September) - and SUDDENLY, he's got the coof...
I hope it works out for him. Prayers.
He’s a hell of a cartoonist. I hope he and his wife get better fast.
Special prayer for Ben, I love His cartoons. He’s clever and biting without being mean. I hope he recovers quickly.
Dang, I wish him and his wife well.
I’ve enjoyed his work for a long long time.
The CONSERVATIVE cartoonist....
How come “progressives” are never called “left-wing” or liberal?
Amen!
Call them what they are “Communist”
Is the Beet Juice from seeing those commercials with radio host Dana Loesch?
I was unaware of Ivermectin until last month, August and hearing folks I listen to on podcasts talking about it. Not a peep about it last year or this Spring. Back then it Hydroxycloroquine.
Beet juice! Dwight Schrute approves of this message.
>>> J&J is a conventional vaccine without the objectionable ingredients found in the Phizer and Moderno. <<<
Well I hope the ivermectin works better for him than it did for Phil Valentine.
Leave him alone. He has a right to be wrong about the vaccine, and he’s not using the hospital system.
