Rand Paul says scientists won’t study dewormer because they hate trump

[BelemNole]

That’s right, they won’t study ivermectin because they all hate…the previous president.

What a faqin moron.

Rand Paul Believes Hatred for Trump Is Why Scientists Won’t Study Horse Drug as COVID-19 Treatment

The FDA has already issued a warning that large doses of ivermectin can be dangerous, and studies have not produced any evidence that it can treat COVID.

I’m not sure i can recall a public figure who is so convinced he’s ALWAYS smarter than anyone else in the room. And then there’s his weird obsession to somehow pin Covid on Fauci.

So what exactly is unscientific about studying the effects of something? Simply saying "it's used for something else" is not quite scientific enough to discount it.

Every day he convinces me more and more that "Team Neighbor" was the right side.

Besides the fact they they have done some studies on it? I’m sure there are probably some groups looking at it right now. right now this is about WHY Paul says people are objecting to it.

Meanwhile, there are at least a dozen clinical trials either ongoing, or completed, studying exactly that.

I wish news folks would hold him to task, and start listing them. Just take 3 minutes of airtime to recite them at him, then ask him to repeat his bullshit claim again.

It's unscientific to make a broad claim that no one will test it, when there are dozens of studies that have and are testing it under various conditions.

Do they hate because they aren’t studying bleach injections or lights up the a$s?

Trump has continued to live in your minds for the last year. Not sure this is such a crazy assumption. HROT is still just anti Trump talk 8 months out and its beyond strange and sad.

We are discussing the topic of scientists and their hatred for Trump which was brought up by Paul and you come here and ask why we are talking about Trump.

Yeah, it's weird. Clearly, Trump has wanted to stay out of the lime light and follow the Al Gore plan of fading into obscurity. It's a total mystery why anyone still thinks to mention him. 🤔

Merck Statement on Ivermectin use During the COVID-19 Pandemic - Merck.com

KENILWORTH, N.J., Feb. 4, 2021 – Merck (NYSE: MRK), known as MSD outside the United States and Canada, today affirmed its position regarding use of ivermectin during the COVID-19 pandemic. Company scientists continue to carefully examine the findings of all available and emerging studies of...

A few questions for those who may know the story more in-depth and I am just not wanting to do a deep dive

1. Are Rand, Louie, and the other people pushing Ivermectin telling people to use the veterinary grade product? If so, why, If not are people using the "horse drug" label to score political points?
Also, why use a horse, why not a dog or cat? It would seem more demeaning to think people are stealing their dog or cat's Heartgard to fight Covid IMO.

2. If supplies are being overrun of the "human grade" ivermectin, don't the doctors or PA's who are prescribing the drug hold some level of accountability. I don't take a lot of drugs and have never asked for any particular drug, but I am sure if I asked my primary to prescribe me some medicine for "river blindness" to treat my Covid he would tell me to get the hell out of his office.

I think you should conduct a self study to see if jumping off a 300 ft cliff cures the common cold.

There is about as much scientific reason to believe that horse de-wormer will cure COVID as there is to believe that jumping off a 300 ft cliff will cure the common cold.

He could not get accredited by any reputable association so he created his own.

FIFY

 

[Flie]

Part of what kills me about this horse dewormer and HCQ before it is that they will ignore proven effective preventative measures and treatments in favor of whatever nutso idea their camp comes up with. It's like if democrats pushed the idea that water helps with dehydration backed by scientific studies they would come back with "Drinking vinegar is even better; have you guys even looked at that?? What are you afraid of?".
