2. I'm starting to wish that that recently-hyped study really did show ivermectin causes infertility

It (the study) didn't, and as such there no evidence that it (ivermectin) does. But I'm almost at that wishing point.

Normally I would not wish harm on anyone, no matter how noxious they have behaved. But this stupid ivermectin bullshit is getting on my last nerve.

RW media is full of cranks and cons.

Don't know anything about this guy, I just bet his records needs some scrutiny.

This is America. I'll bet, before googling it, that's a real thing.

I’m having a hip replacement on Friday. It is NOT being done by a dermatologist.

6. Are there psychiatrists who are not "clinical" by profession?

I know that there are different kinds of psychologists, and "clinical" is one of them. Psychiatrists are normally just referred to with one word.

But my other issue with McDonald is that he does NOT cite clinical studies that affirm the effectiveness and safety of ivermectin. Why not? I suspect that his approval of the drug is not backed up by "clinical expertise," not by peer-reviewed research, not by professional organizations. IMO, McDonald's not speaking with scientific authority. If he claims that he is, where does he get it? Who in the world of research is leading or conducting studies that affirm McDonald's assertions? The quick answer is "nobody." Because "nobody" has submitted breakthrough research that verifies McDonald's claims.

If some ignorant soul follows Carlson's advice, acquires and takes this stuff, acknowledging in front of witnesses that he is doing it on Carlson's exhortation, and then dies from it, is Carlson an accessory before the fact to murder?
