What deworming procedure are you referring to?

  My mom says she took ivermectin frequently as a child, and we’re in the disparagingly named named “flyover country.” Looking at Wikipedia it seems she was taking it after it was approved for animals, but before it was for humans. I don’t know if she’s mistaken it for another medication or if that’s just what was done then. I know when a friend of mine thought he had worms she suggested he take the dog form of it, and this was well before all of the recent press, so I’m inclined to think it’s the latter.

    I did not mean the term "flyover country" disparagingly. I used it because it accurately reflects how the coastal peoples think of the silent majority.

      It's fine, no worries. We really should come up with something in reverse. "The arrogant coasts," perhaps ;)

        "coasties" was the word that popped into my head.
