How the FDA Changed its Warning Against Ivermectin

ByShaun Snapp

Executive Summary

  • How the FDA is a highly deceptive government regulatory agency is shown by their warning on Ivermectin.

Introduction

The way the FDA acted on behalf of its pharmaceutical associations to stigmatize Ivermectin wrongly is one of the essential stories of the covid pandemic. The story behind this illustrates how the FDA works against public health and in favor of its corrupt connections.

In this article, we will cover the observation of these underhanded tactics on the part of the FDA.

In July 28, the Wall Street Journal ran our article “Why Is the FDA Attacking a Safe, Effective Drug?” In it, we outlined the potential value of the antiparasitic drug ivermectin for Covid-19, and we questioned the FDA’s vigorous attack on ivermectin. Many people praised us and many criticized us. We had clearly covered a sensitive subject. It didn’t help that one of the studies we referenced was retracted shortly before we submitted our article. Within hours of learning that fact, we sent a mea culpa to the Journal’s editors. They acted quickly, adding a note at the end of the electronic version and publishing our letter. It’s important to address two criticisms of our work. The first is that we exaggerated the FDA’s warning on ivermectin. The second is that Merck’s stance on ivermectin proved that even the company that developed ivermectin thought that it doesn’t work for Covid-19.

This shows that even when claims against the FDA are very strong — as in the case of both of these, there is still a significant problem.

The FDA Changes its Website Warning Against Ivermectin

The critical point is that the FDA changed its website to protect itself politically from what was a blatant overreach. And the FDA did not explain that it made the change described in the following quotation.

First, we didn’t exaggerate the FDA’s warning on ivermectin. Instead, the agency changed its website after our article was published, probably to reflect the points we made.

Second, Merck had two incentives to downplay ivermectin’s usefulness against the novel coronavirus. We’ll explain both points more fully.

Merck & Co. has donated four billion doses of ivermectin to prevent river blindness and other diseases in areas of the world, such as Africa, where parasites are common. The ten doctors who are in the Front Line Covid-19 Critical Care Alliance call ivermectin “one of the safest, low-cost, and widely available drugs in the history of medicine.” Ivermectin is on the WHO’s List of Essential Medicines and ivermectin has been used safely in pregnant women, children, and infants.
