Podcast host Joe Rogan says he has Covid-19 and used ivermectin, a drug typically used on livestock that health experts have urged the public to avoid.

Rogan, host of the immensely popular Spotify podcast"The Joe Rogan Experience," posted a video to Instagram explaining he tested positive for the coronavirus following his return from a live show Saturday. He said he had “fevers and sweats” and that he “threw the kitchen sink” at the illness.

His treatments included monoclonal antibodies and ivermectin, Rogan said. Ivermectin, which is not an anti-viral drug, is generally used to treat or prevent parasites in animals such as horses.The U.S. Food and Drug Administration last month urged people to stop believing misinformation claiming the livestock treatment would help cure Covid, saying it saw multiple reports of patients who have been hospitalized after"self-medicating with ivermectin intended for horses.

The agency clarified that FDA-approved ivermectin tablets meant to treat people with certain conditions caused by parasitic worms as well as topical formulations used for head lice and skin conditions like rosacea are different from the drug used on animals. Ivermectin tablets and topical formulations for humans have"very specific doses" that are significantly smaller than the doses meant for animals.

Patients who overdose with ivermectin can experience nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, low blood pressure, allergic reactions, dizziness, problems with balance, seizures, coma and even death, according to the FDA.

2015theNobelCommittee for Physiology or Medicine, in its only award for treatments of infectious diseases since six decades prior, honored the discovery of ivermectin (IVM), a multifaceted drug deployed against some of the world's most devastating tropical diseases.

“Ivermectin caused a substantial decrease in the excess mortality rate in Mexico.” Mexico has been treating Covid 19 effectively with Ivermectin, Vitamis C, Zinc and D sinceback in may 2020. Why nobody is talking about this? There’s no money to be made using ivermectin.

Please stop the lie that it's only typically used for livestock... It has been used as a prophylactic and cure for covy for more than a year. Do some research and check out the nursing home using to prevent scabies. O residents got covy, while staff that was not on it did.

Hmm… ok for immigrants but not for you Seems kind of racist….

If COVID 19 is fake why take anything UGH!!!!

When is mainstream news going to CHECK THE FUCKING FACTS

You left out AND NOW HE IS CURED FROM COVID

Obviously he did not use a high enough dosage

I've never had covid and it's because I eat gummy bears every day. They are the secret cure the government doesn't want you to know about. You'll know I'm right when there is a shortage of them. The government will secretly kill off the supply to hide their curative properties.

Ridiculous

Wow

If there were going to be a revolution in this country. Media would be 1 on the target list.

Where’s the “fact checkers” at? Ivermectin has been used a lot for humans

Context: They have the drug for people it’s just not available at Tractor supply. Alex Jones? Nah. They are studying this drug and studies do exist. Joe should have measured his words better being his influence is powerful enough to encourage people to take animal drugs.

The media is the virus 🦠 ! Investigative Report: Rolling Stone Issues 'Correction' After Horse

FakeNews

Ivermectin has been used in humans for decades. They don't want to use it because its cheap.

Doctors have been safely prescribing Ivermectin for decades now to hundreds of thousands of people around the world. Research people. It's not so hard.

I'm sure verified will be along any time now to tell us this is 'misinformation' and 'fake news'.

It's not 'typically used on livestock'. It's a drug that is 'commonly used on humans' and has been for 40 years.

i believe this is the second time he's got it. he needs to listen to dr. rhonda and get vaxxed. his body, his choice.

Healthy as a horse he is!

This is absolutely the stupidest tweet of the day. Animal's have a different treatment than humans. My Goodness, do your job!

Hope ivermectin doesn’t have a microchip in it or make him magnetic.

It is helping a lot in India. Maybe you should check with the health experts who are not bought and paid for.

Why would nbcnews intentionally lie about something so important to survive COVID19 Educate yourselves and realize the delivery of true information

next day: Joe Rogan reports shitting his intestinal lining out.

Maybe it works in horse’s asses not just horses

This world is a clown show…

Ignorance kills

STOP REPORTING THAT HE TOOK IVERMECTIN WITHOUT REPORTING THAT HE TOOK REGENERON, THE ACTUAL TREATMENT THAT WORKS!

Well, we’ll, well. Lol.

Not typically used on livestock. Get your facts correct so-called journalists. Haha. Just trying to manipulate people and spread lies. You are fake news.

Did you report Ivermectin was a 2015 Nobel prize winner NBC? Blatant misinformation and you are NOT a reliable source of news. FakeNews

Way to destroy they’re failing narrative joerogan! We need more like you!

Just a thought but maybe stop covering people giving misinformation or potentially dangerous advice.

Fortunately or unfortunately - more people trust and listen to Joe Rogan than all of the major networks - combined. You have a LONG WAY to go to regain that credibility.

Talk about being stupid

I love how everyone thinks they know more about what's best for Joe Rogan than his own doctors. By the way, the next time you see a study on the therapeutic uses of Ketamine, don't forget a label it as 'horse tranquilizer.'

JoeRogan atta boy Joe !!! 💪

joerogan - seems fitting if it’s meant for livestock that Joe Joe take it too - maybe it will clean out all that bs.

Be serious NBC News. Invermectin is also approved for human use to treat intestinal roundworm infections and river blindness

Clearly Joe does not know that parasites and viruses are not the same. Therefore cannot be treated the same way.

They won’t stop with the Mockingbird narrative. So disappointing.

CDC: 'All Middle Eastern, Asian, North African, Latin American, and Caribbean refugees should receive presumptive therapy with: Albendazole, single dose of 400 mg (200 mg for children 12-23 months) AND Ivermectin, two doses 200 mcg/Kg orally

That's probably the most leveled take I've seen. He took a chance and along with the other things he used, he got over it in days vs. Weeks and he's not vaccinated like oscar de la hoya.

The man is literally part elk. Why are we shocked he beat it?

Ivermectin is so much more than just a livestock medication. It won a Nobel probe for its ability to fight malaria. Yes it’s an anti-parasitic that can be used on livestock but stop chalking it up to just that like joes taking some horse drugs. Clown media

Ivermectin has been used by humans for decades. Whenever the left wing media all freaks the F' out at once over the same thing ...you know something is up...it's so obvious.

Ivermectin is prescribed for humans as well. I get so sick of the misinformation to scare people away from proven treatments that could save lives. It’s truly disgusting. People have the right to make informed decisions.

Headline is misleading. There is a version of ivermectin safe for humans. Look it up before you believe garbage news

fakenews

BULLSHIT

1) this is like 3 day old news (intentional?) 2) you’re heading is ratarded.

Headline choose to overlook fact 2015 Nobel prize for medicine awarded for use of Ivermectin as treatment for parasitic diseases in humans.

Fact: Joe Rogan's elite doctor's gave him ivermectin.

Ivermectin is a medication for people too. Stop selling it as only for livestock. Health experts have stated to not take the one for livestock, Rogan didn’t take that one! Stop being purposely obtuse & spreading misinformation.

More lies

NBC The 'I' word was FDA approved way back in 1960's so, STOP LYING and start saving lives with good information.

All the people attacking ivermectin have been poisoned and have Stockholm syndrome.

There is ivermectin for humans! Why is so hard to report facts Oh wait! You are NBC that’s why...🤣

I didn’t know you warship the golden idol

Ivermectin won a Nobel prize in 2015 for it's treatment of HUMANS. Look it up. Facts matter.

And is now CURED. Propaganda machine.

This is a lie. Ivermectin is approved for human use and has been for a long time.

Joe Rogan: i am fit and healthy, covid won't be a problem Also Joe: i dont need a vaccine: also Joe: i feel like crap i have covid also joe: I took everything i could for covid! Moral: Joe was wrong about everything including ivermectin! Ivermectin(5000% increase in poisonings)

Joe Rogan: takes ivermectin and recovers in 3 days Oscar de la Hoya: double vaxxed in hospital

Covid effects everyone different it all depends on what horse shit you believe in 🤪

Hope his liver damage isn’t too much of a bummer.

Hey jack why do you allow nbcnews to spread misinformation? joerogan took the human form of ivermectin

When are they going to start labelling this shit as MISINFORMATION? Dozens of scientific studies verify that this is not true.

Water is also typically used for livestock 🙄

NKrankie Big pharma has NBC by their bottom surgery to push the vaccine. 💰💰💰

He recovered using a treatment used for humans and whose developers received a NOBEL prize for FACT 🔥🔥🔥

It was designed for humans and is used on humans.

NBC news is captured for the benefit of banks and big pharma, they are then defined as anti democracy, anti free speech, promote negative stories about health and society in general to enrich the elite

Click click

Gee NBC, they gave that drug to the Afghan refugees before they arrived in the USA.

He definitely took the one ivermectin used for livestock. Yep yep.

GOODBYE JOE, TOO BAD YOU DIDN'T GET YOUR COVID-19 SHOTS THEN YOU WOULDN'T HAVE TO TAKE ANIMAL DRUGS

1. You are so late with this story. 2. You are intentionally misleading the public with this headline word play. 3. Enjoy your clicks on your fake news. 4. Do better.

“Had” Covid and recovered in 4 days.

This is the most misleading post I have ever seen. Weak sauce.

It's to get rid of worm in livestock, It probably will give Humans worms.

Well, Joe may have COVID, but he’s worm free

You mean this noble prize winning drug ?

It’s also FDA approved unlike some vaccines

You guys can't help but lie. It's sad and disgusting.

With all due respect Joe Rogan is a comedian and a celebrity and in no way knowledgeable about anything medical. So I wish him well even as I wonder why the fuck anyone would care what crazy shit he’s doing.

Misinformation at its best. The creators of Ivermectin won a Nobel Prize for this medication for humans, then later adapted for animals. Shame on you!

ya probably because it works and theyre losing money. They want to keep this charade going as long as its profitable for them

NBC you slant the news.

They've been using it in Africa for years which is also fda approved just like the other stuff they banned. Wake up people

Time to put the country on Hydroxychloroquine & Ivermectin prophylaxis & early treatment & bring this pandemic to an end. WakeUpAmerica ConstitutionOverCoronaVirus WuhanVirus 🦠 ChinaVirus COVID19

That will get you fired joerogan ! Hush

Bold face lie NBC “news”

I like the spin nbc. Ivermectin is known as the “Wonder Drug”. Used to treat river blindness….in humans. NCBI…🤡s

No health experts worth their salt have ever said “avoid Ivermectin”. None. Zero.

Yet they are doing controlled trials of Ivermectin, that have been effective, in Bangladesh. If that option was completely off the table, why the trials. It would be nice if NBC reported both sides of the story for once.

Who is paying you? how much do they pay you... is that the CIA is it Obama... is it Susan Rice where do you get the money from ?

And it’s been prescribed for humans for decades.

People are crazy

Joe Rogen is a millionaire with access to world class healthcare that the average person would never get access to. He can use all the horse paste he wants as long as he uses the real treatments, which he obviously did use.

And NBC still doesn’t know why folks who think for themselves call it fake news. 🙄

NBC=Fake News. You neglected major facts about this drug. Not surprised though. You’re good at it.

Old news

Ivermectin typically won the Nobel prize for treating HUMANS Twitter misinformation

And you believe him?

He didn't have it.

I trust Ivermectin over the brand new vaccine

So there's more than one way to be Covid? Well, What do you know about that !

You missed the part where he has taken Kickapoo joy juice, monoclonal antibodies. That’s what will work…

How can intentionally put out a misleading headline…please explain

Remember kids, livestock drug formulations are very different from human and has only 1% Ivermectin. Serious side effects can occur.

why don't you title it 2015 Nobel prize winning med used as effective therapeutic against covid?

& about 10 other drugs….

It’s been used in humans for a long time. Maybe it’s a different version?

Already recovering? Isn't that odd? Almost like somebody here is lying...now what industry is synonymous with being fake these days?

Criminal Negligence

Be tested negative 4 days later. Why not report that?

Man you guys got this memo late. Not typically used on livestock but thanks for pushing that narrative for the estab :)

And people stopped trusting NBC News as a credible new source quite some time ago.

The deliberately misleading headlines that nearly every media source seems to be coming up with to push this story are pretty infuriating

BREAKING NEWS: Health experts urge the public to not use an effective medication, out of fear that they may regain the public's trust.

Misinformation

He's still the biggest nihilist in America right now. How about he sticks to watching people pummel each other in a cage? If he doesn't care about politics why is his views politically conservative?

That’s not smart

Yea livestock.

“health experts” Kind of like calling the “news experts”

The guy used to encourage people to eat bugs, never had a handle on common sense

AND monoclonal antibodies. You have enough characters, use them.

We know. This story is 5 days old.

This story is old.

PLEASE STOP PEOPLE ARE DYING USING THIS CRAP

Let me get this straight, y'all would rather take medicine designed for animals, rather than get vaccinated or just wear a mask? 🤦🏾‍♂️ y'all people are so amazing..

Spot the difference

The these right wing folks, who call themselves disruptor’s, are actually gaslighters & liars. Who are trying to sow discord & doubt. They are using the 1st amendment to destroy our country. The American people already know this, dead silence from Congress.

You won't get vaccinated but you'll ingest a horse wormer...bright boy 🙄

How many lives could have been saved if everybody had the same access to drugs Rogan took? Fake media like Today are costing lives and should be banned from social media.

Say, have you all seen any drug ads on TV? From antidepressants to diabetic drugs and everything in between. You seen the side effects of stroke, heart attacks, seizures, on and on it goes. And you promote Ivermectin can cause nausea and even death. All BigPharma drugs do that.

Why are you lying ?

Y’all do know there is a human form of Ivermectin that has been given for YEARS! It’s not just for horses but y’all go head & pull that mask over your eyes too!joerogan recovered pretty good!

Wondering who cares....

The country has so many uninformed and confused people. We are truly in a bad place right now.

Why do you cover this nut? And post this bs?

I know many people who have taken the same cocktail of meds human Ivermectin dose & did very well & recovered quickly. If government only allowed it vs a forced vaccine making people sick we would not be in the place we are. Early treatment works! Wake up people

Neigh, neigh

Hope he makes it 🙏🏻🤞🏻

You guys nbc (and others) are really coming in hard at science that you don't like. And it's funny that w/all your talk about misinformation, YOU POST MISINFORMATION. Sry but the drug IS approved for human use & is pretty common. It's only your vax-machine that doesn't like it

I think Joe needs to lay off the weed, its affecting his rationale

If he deworms and claims miracle cure, we need proof of test he had Covid.

Getting covid if unvaxxed provides multiple times more protection afterwards than any vaccine.

So dumb

Putting this out there is completely irresponsible on the part of any news organization.

People have lost their fucking minds bro. HorseDewormer

ivermectin is an approved drug for humans as well, different version, let's not word play here.

Cautions people about the vaccine, but gobbles down horse dewormer and experimental monoclonal antibody treatment. Not real consistent.

“Paste for me, water for my horse” - Joe Rogan.

Why do you keep pushing lies. More and more people are waking up to the corporate media's bullshit, you know. Your days are numbered.

I don't know which is worse; MSNBC's horrible lying reporting, or those who believe MSNBC reporting. Joe 'had' Covid. He recovered in 3 days taking Ivermectin which has been prescribed and used on humans for more than 30 years to cure River blindness. FACT CHECK IT

I’d get my MMA odds from him, that’s about it!

Did his doctor prescribe it?

IT'S CALL STUPIDITY

I'll bet he's lying about the Ivermectin.

RIP

Great job MSNBC🙄 We all know hardly anybody reads past the headlines, so now you've given people the false impression that Rogan's recovery is due to the dewomer instead of the monoclonal antibodies. Way to exacerbate covid misinformation.

wow joe what a smart way to up your podcast viewership while you're still alive....good luck with that dude.

Sounds fake.

Bonehead will bring on more deaths.
