11. I am still wondering

how they take the horse paste. Do they put it on a cracker? Mix it with chocolate? It must be vile tasting, I often end up with half the dose I give my horses right back in my hair!

Yes it is helpful but not for Covid. I have never heard of it being used in this country any other way than horse wormer and even so, it is the most common way it is used here and hardly a bad thing to call it horse dewormer.

At this point, and I do get your point, it would be irresponsible to not try anything to get them to stop this stupid self treatment that will help no one unless they have parasites.
