They're just saying they have not approved it for that use, which doesn't mean much because they also haven't considered it. They also say don't take animal ivermectin, which should really go without saying, but people are doing it anyway. A dose that's good for a horse is not necessarily a good idea for a human. Unless maybe you're Eddie the Beast.

Are you sure it isn't down to regulatory capture by the US pharmaceutical industry? You can see how nonsensical their comments are in relation to using horse formulations, forgetting that in many countries around the world it is so safe that it is available over the counter. It surely can't be be more dangerous than Advil or cough syrup. Have they forgotten doctors in the US actually prescribe it for Covid? Apparently many people in the US and the UK haven't cottoned on to why their death rates are so high. They seem too stupid to realize that if the cure for an illness is to stay at home without treatment until the symptoms become bad enough to warrant admission to hospital more people will suffer injury and may possibly die as a result. FWIW it is primarily the UK and US where that notion persists. Go elsewhere around the world and tell the people that the "treatment" for Covid is staying at home without treatment until symptoms become too hard to bear, and they will look at you as though you are fool, which indeed you are if that is what you believe. If you think I'm insulting the British and Americans, listen to this from an American doctor - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QAHi3lX3oGM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QAHi3lX3oGM After watching it take the time to consider how many Americans and British have died needlessly as a result of unthinking acceptance of statements made by the countries health authorities.
