FDA explicitly recognizes that doctors do have the authority to prescribe ivermectin to treat COVID

Department of Justice lawyer representing the FDA

Circuit Judge Jennifer Walker Elrod

During oral arguments on Aug. 8, 2023 in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 5th Circuit.

“FDA is clearly acknowledging that doctors have the authority to prescribe human ivermectin to treat COVID.

So they are not interfering with the authority of doctors to prescribe drugs or to practice medicine,”

    Oh indeed! i added an url and an image, but the url was overwritten🙈 i updated the post.

    What witch hunt?

    e.g. in Netherlands; “IGJ” instituted the witch-hunt literally asking pharmacy to snitch on doctors. https://www.igj.nl/actueel/nieuws/2021/03/25/boete-voor-artsen-die-hydroxychloroquine-of-ivermectine-voorschrijven-tegen-corona

    What media basing?

    Didn’t you pick up on the horsepaste issue? And all the censorship on anyone mentioning ivermectin on youtube, facebook, linkedin etc?

    It seems the confiscations at customs were due to shipments from china labelled as “decorative beads”

    Actually, in Netherlands customs, started to confiscate all ivermectin people took with them at the same time that IGJ started.

        The Dutch part i know from close by.

        FDA(US), EMA(EU) do exactly the same regarding covid19 treatments. Where EUA-license was granted to the new injections by FDA, the EMA granted the CMA-license. EUA and CMA are essentially the same. Those licenses were only allowed if nothing else was a viable option. fyi; Many have speculated this being the reason for the crackdown on anything remotely effective( i.e. CQ, HCQ, IVM )

          The post is about the FDA. The fact check reply is about the FDA.

          Whatever the Netherlands is doing is irrelevant to the FDA and vice versa.

            Except for the fact that EMA and FDA both follow exactly the same covid19 narrative

                I’m quite annoyed by you provided a nonsense fact check, having no answers to anything, and even calling the conspiracy flag. To me you’re like the rest of the science deniers and fact check followers.

                Fyi, if you use google for searching information which are ‘fact check’ category , then google switches to ‘safe mode’. better use other search engine in that case

                  You are claiming some shit about the FDA and then referring to the EMA and stating its the same narrative. Thus, the FDA being allowed or not to control whether doctors can prescribe ivermectin to patients is somehow relevant to the netherlands.

                    i don’t claim “some shit about FDA”

                    And indeed EMA and FDA have the same narrative regarding the covid jabs. Have you even heard of CMA and EUA licenses? Your fact-checkers probably left that out of the equation.

                    If you were interested in the least, you would have been surprised that in EU, US and AU the same bashing and banning occurred. Did you even know youtube ghosted comments and deleting comments mentioning ivermectin? (While FDA didn’t “prohibit” ivermectin?!).
