Arkansas detention center doctor is treating COVID positive inmates with cow deworming drug FDA warns is dangerous – as people in Oklahoma flock to feed stores to buy it
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • Physician Dr Rob Karas who works at the jail in Washington County, Arkansas, has been using the anti-parasite drug ivermectin to treat inmates with Covid-19

  • Dr Karas also prescribed ivermectin to an anonymous county official even though he tested negative for the virus

  • Despite FDA warnings the drug is also sold out across Oklahoma and there have been 10 poison calls related to ivermectin since May

  • Diarrhea and vomiting are two more common, minor side effects out of many a person who takes ivermectin could experience

MSN adds:
Madison said Karas confirmed on Tuesday that he was treating jail detainees with ivermectin and said he was taking it himself and giving it to family members.

The [Washington] Post viewed screenshots of Karas’s since-deleted Facebook posts in which he touts the use of ivermectin and indicates that more than 350 people at the jail had been given the drug, allegedly to no ill effect.

The employee, who spoke to The Post Wednesday on the condition of anonymity for fear of retribution, said they received eight prescriptions, including zinc, vitamin D and ivermectin, despite receiving a negative rapid test.

#1 My large animal vet has 5000 doses.
He moved them into a locked box in his barn.

#2 "You are not Wagyu!"

How secure is that barn Skid; I'd anticipate a real rush, maybe even some zombie hoards.

I'm not saying get it, don't get it, just saying the story is at least a week old with getting/stockpiling.

#3 I cannot find any in Colorado Springs, I asked my DR. For a prescription and she said that they were not allowed to prescribe it. My resting heart beat dropped from 60 to 40 for four weeks of the 2 Pfizer injections. I have had three friends die after jabs. I’m lucky because I exercise 6 days a week for 60 minutes a day. I am not sure I will take a booster.

#4 "I asked my DR. For a prescription and she said that they were not allowed to prescribe it." A lie right there, unless there is some new law governing the rights of physicians to prescribed FDA approved drugs as they see fit. And yes, ivermectin is a drug approved by the FDA for prescription to human beings, despite the lying and misleading headlines of late.

#5 I have had three friends die after jabs. I've had zero friends die after jabs. I've lost over a dozen from COVID-19, all before the vaccinations were available. YMMV.

#6 Key takeaway from the NIH link:
There is insufficient evidence for the COVID-19 Treatment Guidelines Panel (the Panel) to recommend either for or against the use of ivermectin for the treatment of COVID-19.

#7 I have seen a young person extremely ill( pale with dark circles about his eyes, poor balance and very lethargic). His father gave him the horse dewormer he called it and in 24hrs the boy was totally over it. I spoke to the boy a day or two later and he looks great. No symptoms. The directions were for 250 lb horse so the dosage was reduced for him. Now two weeks and still he is doing fine, no relapse.

#8 #5 I have seen the opposite.After the jab they go out of their way to say they are fine no problems and now they are gone. What people don't realize is after the jab your auto immune system is permanently compromised.Yes, some are OK but for how long.
