Democrat President Joe Biden’s Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has been forced to remove social media posts that contain false anti-ivermectin claims.
After losing its legal battle against ivermectin, the FDA has agreed to remove webpages and its social media posts urging people to avoid the usage of the drug for Covid treatment.
The FDA has already taken down a page that stated:
“Should I take ivermectin to prevent or treat COVID-19? No.”
It will also delete posts, including one that reads:
“You are not a horse. You are not a cow. Seriously, y’all. Stop it.”
According to a settlement agreement filed with the federal court in Southern Texas, the FDA will also remove another page titled: “Why you should not use ivermectin to treat or prevent COVID-19”
The page must be removed within 21 days.”
The article on the page further says ivermectin neither authorized nor approved the use of the drug to prevent or treat Covid in humans or animals.
It also claims that evidence does not support the efficacy of ivermectin against coronavirus.
On June 2, 2022, three doctors, Paul Marik, Mary Talley Bowden, and Robert Apter, filed a lawsuit against the FDA and its secretary Robert Califf.
The lawsuit also targeted Biden’s Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and its secretary Xavier Becerra.
They accused the FDA of meddling with their capacity to practice medicine.
The lawsuit was first turned down on the basis that the FDA possessed “sovereign immunity,” but a United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit overruled the lower court’s ruling, stating that the “FDA is not a physician.”
It notes that “even tweet-sized doses of personalized medical advice are beyond the FDA’s statutory authority.”
Ivermectin has long been approved for use in both animals and humans.
In cases of humans, the drug is recommended to treat parasitic infections such as river blindness disease, threadworm infestation, tropical eosinophilia, roundworm infestation, whipworm infestation, filariasis (also called elephantiasis), and loiasis.
As of Sunday, the FDA’s website still does not suggest ivermectin for treating COVID-19.
It states that excessive doses are detrimental and that pharmacies must to fill a prescription before handing over the medicine.
Taking to X, Mary Talley Bowden MD wrote:
“This landmark case sets an important precedent in limiting FDA overreach into the doctor-patient relationship.”
Stressing that ivermectin is not an exceptional case, independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr in a tweet said:
“The FDA is biased against many low-cost, generic, and/or natural therapies with low-profit potential.
“Could it be because half its funding comes from Big Pharma?”
Australian politician Craig Kelly called the FDA “corrupt.”
Kelly warns that the FDA has “blood on its hands.”
