This doctor was previously suspended for vaccine misinformation and now has a complaint against her by the texas medical board for numerous violations of professional conduct, including prescribing medication without ever meeting or examining a patient.

She filed a defamation lawsuit against the hospital which she lost. Ouch. Best of luck to her in keeping her certification, and in finding a new job! She should become trumps personal dr.

My parents legitimately believe ivermectin is a cure all and are stockpiling it. They take it for just about anything. They also believe plenty of other wacky things like viruses don't exist and cancer is just a fungal infection.

My dad last year nearly lost his foot after it got infected. They let it fester for months and only treated it with like essential oils or some other pseudoscience. He eventually had to go to the emergency room and stay at the hospital and receive antibiotics. 🙄

The new hot cure to hantavirus: bloodletting! Balance your humors and align your chakras with this one simple trick!

IMO, this is one of the consequences of not having universal health insurance that isn't talked about enough. If the bar for going to the doctor is "about to lose a limb from infection", then people become vulnerable to pseudo-scientific garbage, simply because they hardly ever receive advice from actual medical professionals.

Nothing says ‘we learned nothing’ like speedrunning the exact same miracle-cure discourse all over again.

In the US, people don't go to the doctor when they have a problem, they go as a last resort because they have to ask themselves how much it would cost.

18% of Americans haven't ever seen a doctor and 40% of Americans haven't seen one for 5 years.

A number of studies in low income communities in the south show that over 60% of people in those communities have intestinal parasites. That's just the ones we know of.

One thing we know for sure is that ivermectin is about as magic as they say it is for parasites only. It's a fantastic drug for that.

Over 60% of low income citizens would likely feel much better after getting their parasites removed from ivermectin. So what they are seeing, seems true. They could be sick from something else but get rid of a long standing comorbidity of a pariste infection, you bet they are feeling good. They just think that relief from the varied symptoms from parasite is actually something else cured.

This ivermectin religion has real miracles, it's just not the ones they think they are. This belief is entirely created because Americans don't have healthcare. That's why this belief isn't found elsewhere.

I wish I loved something as much as conservatives love Ivermectin.

Ah, it's refreshing to see her back to saying crazy bullshit again.

I really hope we don’t have a pandemic. Hentavirus has a 30% death rate. Being against masks, against vaccines, having fadigue of lockdowns would kill at of people

And remember, if you get sick with the hantavirus you can get over it quickly by taking 2x the LD50 of Tylenol. A couple of days and you won't even feel sick. Be sure to tell all your conservative friends because the government likes to cover up this kind of information.

Covid spread easily; I don’t think hantavirus is as easy to spread. However, it’s much more deadly and can be dormant for 60 days, spreading itself.

We’re pretty fucked.

The vast majority of viruses are RNA-based so it appears that we have a pretty much universal cure here.

What's the thing with ivermectin? Do they own shares from the manufacturers or something?

You are posting dangerous disinformation as a science meme. Reported.

Stop advertising X dot com.

So she thinks (I know, I know) that getting “natural immunity” to COVID protects her from hantavirus? The ivermectin is just the icing on the cake, honestly.

This stupid cunt didn't learn a thing from Trump fucking her over, and back to the old song and dance. It's not even surprising... I really hope these tools load up hard on horse paste, hell, mainline it, I could use the entertainment...

These people have blue check marks so they know what they are talking about

There is no doubt there are redcoats still sitting on warehouses full of this stuff, who couldn't get rid of it "way back then". These snake oil salesmen and purveyors of lucky charms expected to make millions from selling shit that doesn't work. Not for viral control anyway.

And so by voice of king god donnie (kgd), it's time to bring it back and MANDATE it (quick before it's all out of date).

I wonder how many square feet of the "Big I" Mr. Wormbrain has left to get rid of. Or does he use it to actually deworm?

The shitstain who was (and still is) behind the Ivermectin fraud is called Pierre Kory. You can view a very nice and in-depth debunk of all of his claims by Professor Dave here:

Ivermectin comes in apple flavor if y'all are worried about the taste.

In any sane country Mary Talley Bowden MD would be struck off the medical register for propagating this brain damage.

Does Lemmy have an equivalent to the Herman Cain Awards subreddit? We're definitely gonna need one.

Screw all of this wacky, inconsistent, cynical medical advice. Bring barbers back!
