I did it. Bought a 6-month supply of Ivermectin this morning.

Walked right in to the veterinary clinic and just bought it over the counter.

Same as I do every 6 months, for my dog. She was in for her 6-month bordatella vaccine and I get her monthly heartworm pills while I'm there. I asked the vet if they had been selling a lot of Ivermectin. They said no one had asked for it, and they wouldn't sell it for that purpose anyway. I didn't know, but they told me the Interceptor brand heartworm pills contain Invermectin, which makes it effective against several parasites.

In animals.

But a virus is not a parasite. And the symptoms covid causes are not treatable with it either.

who eat animal medicine. Not those who get a legitimate prescription from a human doctor for human medication containing ivermectin.
