CV and mad panic behaviour

[Mav]

Joe Rogan is just the latest to join a long conga line of loud and proud anti-vax & pro-ivermectin conservatives who have caught Covid despite the magic of ivermectin. Among those who've died are Phil Valentine, Marc "Mr.Anti-Vax" Bernier, Dick Farrel (all conservative radio hosts), Captain Joe Manning (Georgia police officer), & 30 year old Caleb Wallace (anti-vax co-ordinator).  Most if not all of them used Ivermectin before contracting Covid as a type of non-vaccine vaccine, thus helping to disprove its effectiveness in that regard. 

Bear in mind that these deaths only garnered media attention because of their belligerent stances and prominence. Presumably, much lower-profile pro-Ivermectin anti-vaxxers are filling up cemeteries in southern US States. I would have thought that the public would be well served if statistics concerning hospitalisation & death caused by Covid included vaccination status and the use of alternative medications like Ivermectin. 

I have to give Flyboy credit, though. Once I pointed out that Dr Kory has despaired about Ivermectin's lack of impact against the Delta variant, he seems to have backed off. The funny thing is that Ivermectin advocates have revelled in the ability of the Delta variant to cause breakthrough cases, but they haven't twigged that any effect Ivermectin may have had against the original Covid strain may be completely negated by more virulent strains.
