The stories about large numbers of people overdosing ivermectin in the US were shown false both by a hospital reporting the doctor supposedly reporting the problem didn’t actually work for them as well as poison control center numbers being reported incorrectly.
Critique ivermectin but don’t do it my spreading misinformation.

People often complain about mainstream media getting things wrong, but they generally overlook the fact that the editorless non-mainstream media gets far more stories wrong.

- jjeaff 5y agoThe overdoses may have been exaggerated, but people taking the livestock version of ivm were not. You can talk to just about any livestock rancher and they can tell you how all the ivermectin suddenly became sold out everywhere soon after the narrative that it could treat covid went wide.
