People are trying to treat and prevent COVID-19 by taking ivermectin, a medication commonly used to de-worm horses — and they are poisoning themselves in the process.

ABC News reported an uptick in calls to poison control centers linked to the drug. The Missouri Poison Center alone has seen a 40 to 50 call increase in the regular amount of messages they would receive a day prior to the pandemic.

Experts are urging people to avoid the lure of fake "cures," which could cause health problems as bad or worse than a COVID-19 infection.

Rather than waiting to get the drug through proper channels, people are instead getting equestrian prescriptions through their vets and using horse-sized doses on themselves, Julie Weber, president of the American Association of Poison Control Centers, told ABC News.

"We just had a case of someone using a veterinary source of ivermectin, a horse medication, that contains a significantly larger dose of the drug," Weber told ABC News.

Why people are trying ivermectin
The buzz around ivermectin has been generated by the FLCCC, the Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance (FLCCC), which formed at the start of the pandemic. It comprises critical care workers who previously bonded over the controversial use of vitamin C for sepsis, MedPage Today reported.

I believe we’ve covered this already in another thread here, but, yeah, WTF? My dog takes that for heartburn.

I think this is a wonderful way for the idiots of our world to self eliminate. They're fine with taking a horse parasite medication refuse a well-established vaccine. Alex Jones is losing listeners faster than you can come up with new lies.

The local and national TV stations and newspapers have suppressed this story and covered it up, but international news sources are covering it now. A boy died in Saginaw two days after his second Pfizer vaccine a couple of weeks ago and the state and US have been suppressing it. Has the horse medication killed anybody yet? I am not an anti vaxxer. Can't wait for us to get the ones they use in Russia and China, which are more traditional vaccines they use on their own people, not in prisons at least.

Here's the story they have been suppressing. Don't you always say that if you don't have anything to hide, you don't have anything to worry about? What are they hiding?
