Vegas store requires proof-of-horse photo to deter customers seeking Ivermectin for COVID-19
2021-08-31
[Washington Examiner] A store in Las Vegas is requiring any customer who wants to buy Ivermectin, a drug primarily intended to treat parasitic worms in animals, to bring a photo with their horse.

Several people are seeking Ivermectin this summer to try to treat or prevent COVID-19 despite warnings from health officials, causing V & V Tack and Feed to be sold out of the drug, according to KTNV in Las Vegas .

Store associate Shelly Smith told the outlet demand began to rise months ago, and that's when she put up a sign warning customers that Ivermectin can be dangerous to humans.

"The first sign came about several months ago when you started seeing articles about Ivermectin treating COVID. So, when I was ordering my Ivermectin, I noticed our distributors had that [warning], so I figured let me hang one too just to let people know, 'Do not take this,'" Smith said.

#10  Of interest is no signs are posted at COVID-19 vaccination sites stating that the vaccines can be dangerous to humans. That info is buried in the fine print given to patients, which none ever reads.

#9  Way back in the early days of this insanity I had an in person meeting with my Dr. She told me she had a patient who had his wife come down with full blown case of the Winnie the Flu. Since he tested positive but had no symptoms he couldn't return to work untill he had a negative test. A month went by and still positive. She said on a DR. message board there was a report that some docs in Brazil found that Ivermectin gave positive results, so a what the heck she gave him the dose and the next time he tested he was negative. I joked that maybe I should go to Tractor Supply for some Ivo-Mec pour on. I am surprised it took so long for people to realize that they could get this stuff OTC. The key is most folks have no idea of what the correct dosage is. BTW the stuff is fatal to tortoises and there was a case of public aquarium killing a bunch of sharks with it. In humans it is being used to treat "river blindness" Matbe the problem is Lawyers have the same effect as sharks when treated with this drug.
Of course taking drugs meant for animals can have side effects.

#2  I continue to read that India, Mexico City, many areas in Africa all attest to the efficacy of Ivermectin as well as countless doctors and numerous recent studies non of which apparently Fauci is aware of.

No one will trust the FDA, WHO, CDC or any other government agency when the truth all comes out, but any one who still trusts Fauci gets a horse laugh.

Was in my Tractor-Supply store yesterday...so curiously I asked the cashier...

How many people were buying it.

The cashier told me they quickly sold out and no longer stocking it due to the abuse and potential liability issues.

She said, she has been told to tell customers ...They need to see a vet..
