People are turning up in hospitals because they've OD'd on it.
- swader999 5y agoNo they aren't. All of those reports have been retracted.
- davidw 5y agohttps://news.ohsu.edu/2021/09/17/five-oregonians-hospitalized-due-to-misuse-of-ivermectin-for-covid-19 https://news.ohsu.edu/2021/09/17/five-oregonians-hospitalize... doesn't look retracted to me. Only stands to reason that if people are taking it kind of randomly, a few are going to screw up and take too much.
- swader999 5y agoProbably ingested the pour on treatment or one of the brands that mix other active ingredients that you don't want.
- tawmec 5y agoNot once in that article is an overdose mentioned.
- davidw 5y agoSo you're suggesting that taking even a regular dose might send people to the ICU?
- tawmec 5y agoThe article linked simply says there have been people who misused ivermectin who presented at the hospital. For what reason they went we have no idea because it does not say. For all we know the two individuals who landed in the ICU were admitted because they were attempting to unsuccessfully self-treat COVID and ended up there, not because of the ivermectin misuse but because of COVID itself.
