Good

Big pharma propaganda.

Absolutely mad

Hurray for NYC BigMedia they got a Texas Doctor fired.

Well the mandate isn’t based on science either!

Oh wait, there’s a physician suing the Sentara Health System in Norfolk, VA for not being allowed to use Ivermectin per Hospital policy. Awaiting the outcome of the court decision…

Wow. Texas dis something smart.

Goes to show .. anybody can get caught up in idiotic conspiracy theories

see ya later doc

And the AMA does nothing. The medical board does nothing. This is why we no longer trust medical professionals.

We shouldn’t have mandates. No one should lose their job for questioning that. Do you people not realize that Biden’s vax mandate for employers with 100+ employees was put on hold within days and now has been completely suspended She needs her job back and a public apology

Misinformation is defined as 'anything that challenges the preferred narrative.' 😞

We have perfectly effective vaccines and people still want ivermectin. It’s like having access to a flu shot, not taking it and demanding an anti malarial to cure the flu when you catch it. Logical.

Some developed countries still have health systems that function as in the Middle Ages.

Ivermectin is not an Ivervaccine. Amen

This is how communism works people, get used to it!!

Trumpism is a cult. A dangerous disinformation cult.
