I must not get out enough.  I just don't understand it ?

Speaking in generalities: Anti-vaxxers somehow got the bright idea that horse dewormer cures COVID.  They've been taking it a helluva lot
Anti-vaxxers also believe that the vaccine is a method for the Govt/Illuminati/Whoever to microchip the people.

There is a group of people who were taking horse tranqs to treat covid. They are the same group who is claiming the vaccines are chipped. Our narrator is laughing because he still got microchips into said group's veins.

It is ever so mad a world.

 

Not a tranq, a dewormer. Certain formulations are approved for Sheep. Does that make the people taking it the real sheeple?

Horse dewormer.

The wife uses it on our horses but thanks to idiots, it's stupid expensive this year.

It IS used in humans, safely I might add just not in the hands of self-medicating morons. It's used to treat parasites and lice.

You can buy ivermectin OTC at any TSC.

I believe it was actually originally created as an anti-malarial for use in humans.

Ivermectin is a component of my dog's heartworm medicine, and she hasn't yet contracted COVID, so there you go.  Proof positive that it works!

Viagra was originally being developed as a treatment for high bloodpressure.

When initial studies found it was ineffective at lowering blood pressure, they asked study participants to return all unused samples. Participants refused.

Sadly, that is how many see things. 

We have a bunch of vets in the family, including a bunch that work mostly large animals. They're not happy about this situation. 

I stand corrected. Not sure why the phrase "horse tranquilizers" falls so readily to mind.

I know it has been deemed that vaccine opinions are not political and I respect that but we have been beating vaccines to death for 10 pages, it's harshing my mellow. Can we move on to funny stupid E36 M3 again so we can all smile when we come here?
