Well, of course!
The prescription ivermectin dosed for humans is totally different and is prescribed ACCORDING to the person's WEIGHT !!!

Scare reports like this ALWAYS fail to mention this little detail....
Ivermectin has been prescribed for millions upon millions of people worldwide for decades and is considered extraordinarily safe.

was particularly difficult or didn't sink in?

"Scare reports?" JFC. Looks like they need a massive public media campaign of these "scare reports."

are most decidedly NOT due to properly prescribed medication.

It is NOT a "scare" article. It is a fact.

At this point there is just no hope for them. We're going to see piles of overweight redneck bodies outside our local Tractor Supply stores.

Ingraham, Hannity and Carlson all told viewers this was used effectively around the world. The darn FDA was keeping it a secret, according to Fox. With disinformation like that, there should be some consequences. IANAL, but I could argue parallels to erroneously shouting “Fire!” in a crowded theater.

Which, BTW, is one of the reasons they won't take the vax - because it's not been fully approved by the FDA.
