I imagine that Joe Rogan was perfectly able to get the human version of ivermectin and some of the coverage over Rogan was wrong and misleading.

But you also need to be intellectually honest here.

Lots of people are taking ivermectin mean for livestock. Most people don't have the money and connections Rogan has and aren't able to find doctors or pharmacists (like TC) who will just write off a prescription for them.

There is a reason this stuff is all of the sudden flying off the fucking shelves in tractor supply stores.

Right. And if we really wanted to stop that, say the truth.

"Taking animal drugs is unsafe!"

If the news accurately made a distinction between an animal formulation and a human one we'd have a lot less people taking the animal one.

Anybody who conflates the two, whether they advocate for ivermectin or against it are doing everybody a disservice and increasing the level of danger. Because a gullible person might end up taking a horse medication because the news said it was equivalent to something they read the results of a peer reviewed study on.
