The reasonable thing is get vaccinated immediately. You could also stick chili peppers in your butt, that probably won't hurt either. It has as much ability to help as horse dewormer.
Calling it horse dewormer is either propaganda, or just a plain bad faith argument. The inventors of this drug won a Nobel prize for the discovery and it’s use in humans. It’s recognized as an essential drug.
But people are purchasing the horse version. What is the conversion between a 50 mg tables and a tube of paste for a 1200 lb animal? By using the wrong formulation you run the risk of liver damage due to an overdose of ivermectin.
That's a straw man. These people are of course doing something dangerous but mainstream newspapers are routinely calling doctor prescribed Ivermectin 'horse dewormer'. Both 'camps' treatment of this subject has been a real low water mark and it looks like the science might be as well.
"Reasonable" based on what risk/effect-analysis? For what age group? I don't know how many 60 year olds browse HN but I'm not going to take either experimental treatment for a disease I don't even have any reason being scared of, based on the actual data we have. The more hysterical part of society can argue about this and inject themselves with whatever they like for all I care, just leave the rest of us out of it. Not everyone wants to live in fear and under dystopian rights restrictions.
