Well guess what? Mississippis health department said that 70% of recent calls to the state poison control center had come from people who ingested ivermectin from livestock supply stores. Same thing going on in Alabama. What are the common symptoms? Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea. But theres also nerve damage, seizures, and sometimes death.

The mere constant repetition of the name; has made the drug familiar to fox viewers so they trust it. Fox needs to be SUED SUED SUED.
the name Ivermectin is as familiar to fox viewers as Anacin or Tylenol. Repetition breeds familiarity.
