It's properly described as a Nobel winning treatment for parasites like worms. Saying drug is a bit vague, and you lose the same plot as calling it horse paste

It's properly described as a Nobel winning treatment for parasites like worms.
Saying drug is a bit vague, and you lose the same plot as calling it horse paste. It's not some cure all, appointed by the nobels as good for all your ailments
- throwawaysea 5y agoAgree it isn’t some cure all. However at the same time, I think it is valid for people to speculate and experiment and see if it can work. Dismissing it entirely removes room for experimentation and I don’t think it is the place of media or pharmacists to trivialize it at the start. Just as people were looking at it as a panacea with certainty, I think people on the other side of the debate became almost religious with their single track vaccine worship, particularly when it came to them mandating it. Somewhere in the middle is balance and civil discourse.
- ajross 5y ago> I think it is valid for people to speculate and experiment and see if it can work. This wasn't a scientific study! People were eating horse paste. There were literally multiple overdose events reported. You think it's... "valid" to go to your local farm supply store and chug down random drugs because someone on Facebook told you to?
