Due to popular demand, this bill offers individuals who wish to use Ivermectin for Covid treatment.

1. Doctors are not always right, nor are they always willing

But when something is disproved, we enter the realm of fantasy medicine. That should not be legalized.

[WVreaper]

2. Assisted suicide?

[Ocelot II]

3. What's stopping people from going to their local farm supply

and just buying livestock dewormer?

[aeromanKC]

4. Should also be required to pay out of pocket for all subsequent medical bills.

[SergeStorms]

5. So I could be in a hospital with gout...

and demand massive doses of morphine because I believe it will cure me?

Ridiculous. If you don't trust medical professionals to do what's best for you, go to a feed and grain store instead.

6. Has anyone told them they can't use it?

These assholes always do this. It is stupid but not illegal for them to use it so why do they need a law saying you cannot make it illegal when it never has been?

[Ellipsis]

8. I'm not certain, I believe they want to be able to prescribe in the hospital.

He's obviously throwing meat to the GQP'ers.


While it is conservative district... is just embarrassing to see in Wisconsin.

12. It does not even need a perscription

and it was never illegal to prescribe or just sell it anyway. You can pick up the paste and any place that carries meds for livestock. You might need a prescription for the people pill form but they would not get a doc to do that since it is not for this virus, at least I would hope not.

I live in Kansas, I am well used to being embarrassed. Sending hugs of comfort and understanding!

[Deuxcents]

7. Irresponsible to say the least.

Promoting voodoo medicine by making A law. The good people of WI need to object loudly

[nilram]

9. And then who pays to treat side effects?

But seriously, they should be allowed to see treatment at any veterinarian of their choice

[Ford_Prefect]

10. No one asked the Insurance Companies about this. I don't see coverage for off label usage.

[Ellipsis]

11. Good Point... and there are more then a few insurance companies based in Wisconsin.

[rlegro]

13. Right, so anyone can just overrule a doctor or pharmacologist....

... just like wingnuts are now moving bills in a couple of states that will let anyone ban any book from any school library for any reason at all. Why don't Repubs just cut to the chase and declare anarchy the best American form of govrnment?
