LITTLE ROCK, Ark. - Four inmates at a northwest Arkansas jail sued the facility and its doctor Thursday after they said were unknowingly prescribed ivermectin to treat Covid-19 despite health officials’ warnings that the anti-parasitic drug shouldn’t be used for that purpose. The American Civil Liberties Union of Arkansas filed the lawsuit in federal court on behalf of the detainees against the Washington County jail, Washington County Sheriff Tim Helder and Dr. Robert Karas. Helder in August revealed that ivermectin had been prescribed to inmates to treat their Covid-19.

Researchers analyzing insurance claims data estimate that U.S. insurers have paid tens of millions of dollars for ivermectin as a covid-19 treatment, despite little good evidence that ivermectin does anything to treat or prevent the viral illness. During a single week in August 2021, private and Medicare insurance plans forked over about $2.5 million for covid-related prescriptions of ivermectin, according to the new study, published Thursday in JAMA. Ivermectin is a cheap and effective antiparasitic that’s been in wide use for around 40 years. At the start of the pandemic, it was one of many existing drugs to receive a...

Seriously ill patients facing death from late stage COVID infection increasingly face hospital protocols that have a terrible record of saving lives. In fact, nearly all such patients die. This explains why over 1,000 Americans are dying every day from COVID. In a week, more people die from late stage COVID than died in the 9/11 attacks. Yet this is not major news on mainstream media outlets. Getting used to COVID deaths has produced complacency rather than rage.As we hit 800,000 COVID related deaths in the US it is important to note that many and probably most of these occur...

You are not a horse. You are not a cow. Seriously, y’all. Stop it.” As the message from the Food and Drug Administration (fda) implies, ivermectin—a drug used to treat parasites, including in horses and cows—has never become part of the standard of care for covid-19. Many think it should be. At last count doctors in America prescribed more than 100,000 tablets of the drug a week, a 30-fold increase since 2019. Ivermectin’s advocates insist that there is solid science showing its efficacy. One website lists 67 papers on the subject. Could they all be wrong? Recent analysis suggests ivermectin...

Health officials condemned ivermectin as a useless and even dangerous treatment for COVID-19. The media smeared the well-known and commonly used anti-parasitic drug as a “horse dewormer,” even though it has always been a human medicine as well.

But it turns out ivermectin can actually help certain people fight off COVID-19, according to science writer Scott Alexander.In a lengthy blog post , Alexander took a deep dive into all available studies on ivermectin and whether it works against COVID-19.

On the latest episode of “The Jimmy Dore Show,” comedian and political commentator Jimmy Dore highlighted the similarities between Pfizer’s expensive new antiviral drug for COVID and ivermectin, a generic drug used to treat the virus.“I’ve never seen the propaganda machine so hard at work as it’s been against ivermectin,” said Dore. “Ivermectin won a Nobel Prize for human medicine in 2015, but the media really has everyone believing it’s for horses.” Dore suggested the motivation behind the propaganda is profits.Dore played a video of John Campbell, Ph.D., explaining how Pfizer’s antiviral and ivermectin treat COVID in “the exact same...
