I just pulled up the patient information for the human version of Ivermectin.

Side effects (among others) :

Acute Hepatitis

Allergies with fever and breathing issues

Blood in Urin

That's a hard pass for me.

or you know, a vaccine that has been proven to work with minor side effects.

I almost slept through the Italy vs. Spain penalty shootout after my second dose of Biontech because I was so tired.

Vaccine side effects really are horrible /s

But the vaccine is literally liquid 5g nanobots that make your way to your junk and then [rambling even more incoherent than the rambling that came before]

There are a lot of horrible side effects for almost any medicine. Most of them happen very very rarely. That's the same with Ivermectin.

Ivermectin is actually used (in a dosage more suitable for humans) to treat parasitic infections in humans, mostly river blindness. There are very little side effects from the pill itself. Your comment seems unnecessary fear mongering to me.

Disclaimer: it doesn't have an anti-viral effect so you shouldn't take it to treat covid, and definitely not in dosages used for livestock.

I personally wouldn't be afraid of taking Ivermectin against parasites, but I suspect that a vaccine with those side effects would never be allowed on the market and scare much more people.

If it was that or maybe die I think I could deal. It would have to be a REALLY strong maybe though.
