Like rumor mill, gossip, or a bunch of old sailors telling sea stories. Fox is not a reliable source of info.

I will watch news headlines from more honest sources to see if this is confirmed. It’s likely a hoax with a high degree of truthiness.

Six of the 21 persons were hospitalized for toxic effects from ivermectin use; all 6 reported preventive use, including the 3 who had obtained the drug by prescription. Four received care in an intensive care unit, and none died. Symptoms were gastrointestinal distress in 4 persons, confusion in 3, ataxia and weakness in 2, hypotension in 2, and seizures in 1. Of the persons who were not admitted to a hospital, most had gastrointestinal distress, dizziness, confusion, vision symptoms, or rash.

Now consider most who use ivermectin would never set foot in a Drs office or the ER I think it's a safe assumption there are A LOT of unreported cases out there.
