“People should never take animal drugs, the agency said in its letter: “FDA is concerned about the health of consumers who may self-medicate by taking ivermectin products intended for animals, thinking they can be a substitute for ivermectin intended for humans.”
Seriously? So, what about all the GMO stuff and processed food that is bad for humans? All those “diet” and “healthy” meals laden with sodium? Should you ban all products that some like to sniff? Since kids are being kept out of schools, I guess they won’t have to worry about not having their Elmer’s Glue that they like to smell and even eat (did it myself when I was a kid, but I’m still here lol).
I should clarify that I’m not saying it’s okay for people to take pet meds. What I am saying is that they’re taking this much too far. If they took the same stance against all the other bad stuff out there, what would we have left? Even on grocery shelves?
People are going to do what they’re going to do. Just like kids sniff and eat glue.
