I was really mortified by it, but also just embarrassed. I mean, the whole worlds talking about dont do this, but yet were doing it to our detainees, Eva Madison, a justice of the peace in Washington County, told TPM Wednesday. Justices of the peace are equivalent to county commissioners in Arkansas.
Madison claimed in a county meeting Tuesday night that the doctor contracted to work in the county jail, Rob Karas, was prescribing Ivermectin for inmates. She said shed also heard from a county employee whod received a negative COVID-19 test at the jail that the employee had been prescribed Ivermectin. Madison shared with TPM a photograph of the prescription she said the employee received for Ivermectin.
The Northwest Arkansas Democrat Gazette reported that Sheriff Tim Helder separately confirmed that Karas Correctional Health had informed him last month that they were using the medication. Helder praised Karas at the county meeting Tuesday night.
This is appalling, State Rep. Nicole Clowney (D) wrote in response to the Democrat Gazette report.
dear. gawd.
