It should be illegal for CONGRESS CRITTERS to spew lies like this, that can harm the public.

And I think she was raised in a barn.

One Hospital Denies Oklahoma Doctors Story of Ivermectin Overdoses Causing ER Delays for Gunshot Victims
Update: One hospital has denied Dr. Jason McElyeas claim that ivermectin overdoses are causing emergency room backlogs and delays in medical care in rural Oklahoma, and Rolling Stone has been unable to independently verify any such cases as of the time of this update.
The National Poison Data System states there were 459 reported cases of ivermectin overdose in the United States in August. Oklahoma-specific ivermectin overdose figures are not available, but the count is unlikely to be a significant factor in hospital bed availability in a state that, per the CDC, currently has a 7-day average of 1,528 Covid-19 hospitalizations. The doctor is affiliated with a medical staffing group that serves multiple hospitals in Oklahoma. Following widespread publication of his statements, one hospital that the doctors group serves, NHS Sequoyah, said its ER has not treated any ivermectin overdoses and that it has not had to turn away anyone seeking care. This and other hospitals that the doctors group serves did not respond to requests for comment and the doctor has not responded to requests for further comment. We will update if we receive more information.

Not for Covid though.
