The FDA has lost it’s war on Ivermectin and has now agreed to remove all social media posts depicting it as “dangerous horse paste.”
They lied.
The damage done however, is just phenomenal. They ran this campaign against ivermectin in spite of having pushed in on African migrants back in 2015 and in spite of a 100 studies now showing a 62% decreased risk in treatment of early covid.
They lied.
Besides dumping public trust down the toilet, we have no idea how many people could have been helped if doctors had been allowed to treat their patients as they saw fit. We also forced people to turn to veterinary medicine and other potentially risky sources online, rather than their healthcare providers.
Instead they lied, they persecuted doctors, and they went on social media to try and ridicule and mock people into compliance.
I remember the media also jumping on the bandwagon and posting a series of outright lies about long lines to get into the emergency room due to all the people making themselves sick with alleged horse paste. Supposedly poison control centers were overwhelmed and doctors were doing triage, turning away heart attack patients because they had to treat all the ivermectin cases.
None of that ever happened. It wasn’t real. That was all propaganda. Those were all absolute lies, completely made up rubbish.
And quietly, a few years later on the back of page 17 in tiny print you will find an, “Ooops, we retract that. My bad.”
****For the record, this post is is not intended as medical advice. I am not suggesting anyone take Ivermectin. I myself did not buy or take any Ivermectin. I simply agree with the court system that has now ruled in favor of a couple of doctors.
See, there's this thing called biology... 
Many thanks for the update. I have not taken Ivermectin either but it does seem to be useful, albeit I don’t trust pharmaceuticals and now avoid like the plague. There are always alternatives to such things.
One must remember that COVID 19 is the ‘flu rebranded although the ‘flu covers a multitude of sins as it were.
If the FDA hadn’t lied then so many people would not have woken up to all the evils in the world and the deceit of vaccines and big pharma in general. It also separated the wheat from the tares as it exposed the shallowness and spite in so many. “By their fruit you will know them.”
So despite the evil, good has come of it. People stopped believing in God and so believed the lies instead.

What?! They lied?! As if they ever stopped lying. I remember my reaction upon first hearing the “Ivermectin scare.” Being that I have dealt with my share of doctors who say “that shouldn’t work” with regards to my own chronic condition, it was rather easy for me to be skeptical from the get-go. As well, I know that Ivermectin has been prescribed for scabies for years, with much success, though for some reason, doctors are reluctant to prescribe it for such use. My guess? It’s cheap and doesn’t line the pockets of BigPharma. Hasn’t it always been this way? As a side note, I won’t be lining up for any “cancer vaccine” that may be in the near future either.

Of course they lied. Emergency approval for the injection could only happen if there were no other alternatives available. If Ivermectin, HCQ or anything else was allowed because they actually worked, there would be no injection that they could push on everyone. They did push one drug, colloquially known as “run, death is near” because it was more likely to kill than cure.
People died because of the government enforced treatment protocols. People were killed by those treatment protocols. Including people who had the treatment protocols used on them, even when they *didn’t* have the Vid, but were just assumed to have it.
And the media pushed the false narrative constantly. They are all complicit in so many deaths and permanent damage.

Of course they lied josh. and everyone with a sense of clear thinking knows it. including you. The accusation has zero to do with our anger. quite the other way ’round. and you know it.
They lied, and they know they were lying. They knew Ivermectin has been FDA approved , prescribed and successful as an antiviral for human for DECADES. but they lied and smeared anyone who said so, and you know it. they lied because if there was a safe, effective and inexpensive way to treat covid, it wouldn’t allow them to terrorize the american people into shutting down the booming economy trump built to crash it, putting millions out of work and blame trump… it wouldn’t allow them to push mail in voting, something everyone knows has been proven every time it’s used to be fraught with both election and voter fraud. they wanted trump out so bad, even though we had record job participation, record low minority unemployment, no wars and oh yea again… Booming economy and record wage rises for ordinary people. the Lie they told over and over was to “get trump” and steal the 2020 election for the Progressive Dems. it happened, it’s history. you may be happy that it happened, but it was all a lie to get trump out of office when even bill mahr two yrs before the election said on his show that the only way trump wouln’t be reelected was if they crashed the economy and put millions out of work to blame him. (seacrh the video, it’s still available. ). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BiEbmp54Lrc
so screw you and your smug “what’s your definition of a lie” and “you’re only accusing of the lie because you’re angry” We remember history perfectly. They crashed america and put millions out of work, real people lost businesses and the american people were terrorized into a mass psychosis over a completely treatable FLU that ended up killing only less that 5% of the people who even contracted it. the experimental covid vaccinnes have killed and harmed so many. the lie “you wont get covid if you get the vaccine” the lie “oh, the symptoms will be less if you get the vaccine” the lie “one vaccine shot” lies all freaking lies. and they and we and you know it. so stop defending what they did to real americans and the american economy to “win” and election and “get trump”

The difference between 1918 and 1922 was probably related to people’s natural immune system, not vaccines, not antivirals. If, IF, the severity of covid has actually declined to the point of where we can now, “just treat it as the flu,” then that was likely due to people’s natural immune systems responding to the virus and not the result of antiviral drugs, potentially dangerous experimental vaccines, or tyrannical government lock downs.
And Ivermectin had already been approved by the FDA and was already in use since at least 2015. They didn’t “refuse to approve it,” they ran a slur campaign against a medication they had already approved! They hindered doctor’s ability to prescribe it and they prevented pharmacists from filling prescriptions.

I’m not trying to insult your intelligence. I just think it would help if you knew a little more about the subject of immunology. This has nothing to do with intelligence.
Of course, the change in 1922 was largely due to acquire immunity. But of course, millions of people around the world had to die first. Acquired immunity in a very large percentage of the population is exactly what I’m referring to when I talk about immunological landscapes. So, you now understand that this isn’t “poppycock” at all. Good.
Now, when vaccines are available, they can also produce acquired immunity and change the landscape while reducing the final body count at the end of the pandemic. Vaccines are part of what created the immunological landscape of 2024. It’s not an either/or proposition. It’s not a change in the landscape either solely due to natural infection or solely due to vaccination. It’s both. Both contributed.
The FDA approves drugs for specific uses. To use a drug for COVID, the drug must be approved for that specific use. It must be shown to have a benefit for that specific use, otherwise, you run the risk of causing side effect for no good reason. And all drugs have side effects, especially when you give them to millions of people. So, yes, if a drug has no benefit, the FDA very much wants to hinder its use. (And it was not “slur campaign” when the FDA said don’t use a medication formulated for horses.)
Since you are now saying that ivermectin is of no value in treating viral infections, you are saying that the FDA made the right call.
And do you really believe that we do not have any effective anti-aging-virals?
But we’ve drifted a bit from the original subject, so let me go back a bit.
Did the FDA admit to having lied? Is there a public statement in which the FDA said “we lied?” And why are you so selective in your accusations of lyIng?

There are testimonies from people who took Ivermectin, and it cured them within 72 hours with no lasting after affects. I have 3 family members who took it and they recovered quickly.

Researchers at the University of Kansas Medical Center were part of a multi-site collaboration that found that ivermectin has no measurable effect in improving COVID-19 outcomes.(University of Kansas Medical Center)
The efficacy of ivermectin in preventing hospitalization or extended observation in an emergency setting among outpatients with acutely symptomatic coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19), the disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), is unclear.METHODS (The New England Journal of Medicine)
When will the Commission finally accept these scientifically verified studies that show that the safe, cheap and effective drug ivermectin, for which a Nobel Prize has even been awarded[2], gives excellent results in the early treatment of COVID-19? (European Parliament Question Ivan Vilibor Sinčić (NI))
combination therapy with an antiviral and immunomodulatory drug should be considered as the most effective and acceptable therapeutic regimen for the management of this disease. Ivermectin has been used as an antiparasitic drug for the last 30 years. Many in vitro studies have reported that the drug is effective against COVID-19 infection. Consequently, many clinical studies are in process to establish the efficacy and tolerability of the drug. The drug is well tolerated and is found to be safe. (Science Direct)
Of the 965 patients who received inpatient care, 307 died during their hospital stay while 658 were successfully discharged. The proportion of cases treated with ivermectin was 17.26% among the non-survivors (53/307) and 17.93% among the survivors (118/658). The effect was statistically insignificant (crude OR = 0.954; 95% CI: 0.668–1.364, P = 0.80). Among the survivors, the median length of stay was 11 days for patients who received ivermectin (IQR: 7–15) as well as for those who did not (IQR: 7–16).(Pub Med Central)
