The General Covid19 Thread
I’ve been loling thinking about this tweet for days
mono-stereo Never listened to him, not once, also literally no idea why he’s so ‘big’ but that’s the Internet I suppose.

I’ve got no idea whether Ivermectin should or shouldn’t be used against Covid, but much of the scepticism and ridicule around it that I’ve seen appears to relate to the fact that it’s commonly used on horses - well I’m just going to point out that a certain tranquiliser commonly used on horses is also quite popular with humans, so it doesn’t seem worthy of immediate dismissal on that front at least.
I think the fact that lunatic anti-vaxxers back the thing is considerably more of an issue that whether it’s made for horses or not
A disinformation campaign against a cheap, generic drug waged by certain interested parties who likely stand to make huge profits from Big Pharma’s vaccines?
I would be genuinely surprised if such a thing was happening.

Along_the_Wire I’m just pointing out that it could be a cheap tactic to discredit it, which ultimately has no relevance as to whether it’s actually useful or not.
Likewise citing that it’s backed by “lunatic anti-vaxxers” could be a lazy attempt to discredit by association, which again has no actual bearing on its potential efficacy.
Again, I genuinely don’t feel informed enough to weigh in on whether it may or may not be beneficial, but I’m just noting some snide deflection which doesn’t contribute anything to the relevant debate.

I think this will be a surprise to most but it’s actually most commonly used on humans with great success (Africa mostly). Which is why the online branding of it as a drug for horses only seems a little cynical to me and suggests a smear campaign. I wonder why?
I’ve bought bangers off shady bastards in dark corners of clubs for many a year, passing said bangers onto friends who danced, skipped and whistled whilst necking them without so much as a by your leave. I’d defo sample this stuff if push came to shove. I’m not on board with the current withchunt. Perception is key. I do agree that Rogan is a fuckin douchebag however. I only watched the podcast for the guests, which I’m sure 99% of viewers did anyway.

No snide. Anti-vaxxers are pushing for full tests and big pharma has form of something gets in their way ie AZ
Committed to the cause to the last. Last words were literally Make America Great Again.
