If you want to know why Republicans have no faith in news organizations, look no further than the Rolling Stone story shared liberally across Twitter this weekend claiming that Oklahoma hospitals were turning away gunshot victims because they were overwhelmed by “horse dewormer overdoses.”
Headlined “Gunshot Victims Left Waiting as Horse Dewormer Overdoses Overwhelm Oklahoma Hospitals, Doctor Says,” the Rolling Stone story, written by Peter Wade , quoted a Dr. Jason McElyea who claimed, “The ERs are so backed up that gunshot victims were having hard times getting to facilities where they can get definitive care and be treated.”

Dr. Robert Malone, inventor of mRNA, in a video published at Epoch Times, chuckled about the ignorant nonsense about ivermectin being “horse medicine”. He has horses and cattle, and there are different ivermectins for them as well as for humans. Cattle get liquid; horses get paste. Humans get pills. All different. Dealing with his own “long Covid”, he takes the pills. Gives the other to his livestock, but would never give the liquid for cattle to his horses.
My saying: “Ignorance can be fixed (with information); stupid is forever”...

So many commie rags, the list is so long...
And they all desecrate the truth in favor of their spin narrative of lies and bs and anti-American hatred for good people like us....

The truth about ivermectin will not ever get through to the dems base. Daily Kos is still pushing the Oklahoma hospital story and over at HuffPo ivermectin is denigrated and anyone they thinks it has value re covid is ridiculed. An informed constituency is a politicians worst nightmare, the dems need not worry.

There's a meme about cats and boxes: "If it fits I sits."
Seems like that's how Leftys use narratives.
Doesn't matter if it's true.
It if fits they slip it in on a holiday weekend when it makes iPhones' headlines while the corrections slide by.
And too many Americans rely on phones for news.

The physician is not a staff member of the mentioned hospital.
the hospital pointed out that no patients have met the criteria he claimed.

It also shows why you cannot trust the supposed fact-checkers. Most are nothing but political hacks with an agenda.

Dr. Jason McElyea is a family medicine doctor who apparently works occasionally for the ER staffing firm that contracts with this hospital. In most hospitals these days, ERs are staffed by these contracting firms. I first encountered this about 30 years ago, so it’s not new. Was McElyea just trying to attract attentiion? Fail.

The MSM and our federal health agencies never stop trying to make it difficult for Americans to get treatments that DOCTORS around the world report clear the virus in a matter of days. President Trump wanted Americans to be able to treat Covid at home with a short course of cheap drugs like Hydroxychloroquine and antibiotics.
Now we know Ivermectin, zinc, and other helpful combinations are an effective option already saving lives around the world.
But what does Blundering do? He has our federal health agencies working to keep doctors from prescribing and patients from taking LEGAL drugs that fight covid, while he leaves the US wide open to illegal aliens carrying illegal drugs that kill thousands of Americans every week. This is no way to run a country,

It demonstrates why we don't trust the left, because they do trust the media.

I took prednisone at the same time my dog did, and now I’m taking Ivermectin while she takes it formulated as HeartGuard. Is it news that she’s a mammal?

Was this article written by the same RS writer who accused, falsely, a Univ of VA frat of rape?

I think there may be millions of conservatives out there that have not trusted the media for a long time, way before this Rolling Stones story or Ms. R. Madcow.

Cattle ivermectin is external, poured on backs. Hose version is internal gel, people is pills
If you can't get pill, don't drink cattle external stuff.
Hose gel is OK.
Rolling Stone is a pack of lies.

Consider first that although Oklahoma citizens own a lot of guns, the state is not a hot bed for gunshot victims like city of Chicago.

#21 cont’d - the Abstract:
In 2015, the Nobel Committee for Physiology or Medicine, in its only award for treatments of infectious diseases since six decades prior, honoured the discovery of ivermectin (IVM), a multifaceted drug deployed against some of the world’s most devastating tropical diseases. Since March 2020, when IVM was first used against a new global scourge, COVID-19, more than 20 randomized clinical trials (RCTs) have tracked such inpatient and outpatient treatments. Six of seven meta-analyses of IVM treatment RCTs reporting in 2021 found notable reductions in COVID-19 fatalities, with a mean 31% relative risk of mortality vs. controls. During mass IVM treatments in Peru, excess deaths fell by a mean of 74% over 30 days in its ten states with the most extensive treatments. Reductions in deaths correlated with the extent of IVM distributions in all 25 states with p < 0.002. Sharp reductions in morbidity using IVM were also observed in two animal models, of SARS-CoV-2 and a related betacoronavirus. The indicated biological mechanism of IVM, competitive binding with SARS-CoV-2 spike protein, is likely non-epitope specific, possibly yielding full efficacy against emerging viral mutant strains.

The lefties don't want you using something that works. When you do something that does not fit the narrative then the left goes nuts and tries to destroy the story. If the stuff works let's use it.
