A Minnesota family physician who is being investigated for the fifth time in the past 17 months by the state medical board for statements related to COVID-19, says the board is now requesting to see medical records of his patients who were prescribed ivermectin.
Dr. Scott Jensen received a notification from the Minnesota Board of Medical Practice two days before Christmas informing him of their request for the records.
“And last night, when I got home after shopping with the grandchildren, I have this letter from the board of medical practice,” Jensen said in a video on Dec. 24.
He added that the board said, “In your response, you indicated that you’ve prescribed ivermectin to some of your patients for treatment of COVID-19. Pursuant to the board’s investigation of this matter, please provide the following records … copies of medical records for the most recent three to five patients to whom you’ve prescribed ivermectin to treat COVID-19.”
The board cited Subdivision 3 of the Minnesota Physician Accountability Act that allows it to “have access to hospital and medical records of a patient treated by the physician under review if the patient signs a written consent permitting such access. If no consent form has been signed, the hospital or physician shall first delete data in the record which identifies the patient before providing it to the board.”

“Is it unlawful to prescribe it?”
Complicated question. In general, no. Any licensed drug (hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin are both licensed drugs) can be prescribed by any doctor for any reason.
It is possible that prescribing a licensed drug (morphine) for a drug addict COULD BE illegal, if a specific law covering that action had been passed.
It is not illegal, but a licensing board could sanction you for prescribing a legal drug (say, the antibiotic linezolid) to a patient on an antidepressant, because there is a negative interaction between linezolid and antidepressants which can hurt or kill you.
None of these examples seem relevant to ivermectin or HCQ prescribed for COVID - but any state CAN and some HAVE either legislated about this or have delegated to State Pharmacy or Medical boards the authority to regulate or prohibit prescriptions of those drugs for COVID.
Off label usages of drugs?
Ivermectin? Evil, illegal, and reason to have license suspended.
AZT? Compassionate, approved, and catapults Fauci to the top of a pedestal for government, and a hole in the ground on which they can piss for homosexuals.
