Fox News: Ivermectin Is a Great Way to Treat Covid-19
Fox News host Laura Ingraham has repeatedly suggested that ivermectin is a great drug for treating people who get covid-19.
“You never hear Fauci talk about that, or D3 or ivermectin, because they haven’t even given emergency use authorization for ivermectin—haven’t even put out anything about that. They’re way behind all these other countries,” Ingraham said on the March 5 edition of her show, The Ingraham Angle.
Often derided as merely “horse dewormer,” ivermectin is actually an incredibly useful drug for treating parasitic infestation in humans, as Gizmodo reported back in August. But research thus far hasn’t found it to be useful for treating covid-19.
That hasn’t stopped countless people from giving it a try when they get covid-19, sometimes with tragic results, including at least two deaths in New Mexico from ivermectin poisoning in September.
