    An Ohio judge ordered a hospital to give a Covid patient horse dewormer.
    Unvaccinated attorney for 17 January 6 insurrectionists and accused murderer/right wing hero Kyle Rittenhouse is in the hospital with Covid, on a ventilator and unresponsive. Which I guess means he can't ask for horse dewormer.

    Doubt it, but the doctor who prescribed it would probably be fair game.

    "Judge Gregory Howard gave the go-ahead on Aug. 23 to Dr. Fred Wagshul's prescription of 30 milligrams of ivermectin daily for three weeks, as requested by his wife."

    Presumably, she got this quack to write a prescription and the hospital refused to play along. The judge was in a position of the patient's guardian (his wife) having a prescription from a licensed medical doctor for off-label use of ivermectin to "treat" her husband's Covid-19.

    I wonder how much she stands to inherit.

    True. It's not even off-label for dogs.

    I don't think it's easy at all once you sign off on a surgical procedure...I think doctors have a built in safety net after all those years of lawsuits...you sign away the lawsuit righst in most hospitals by consenting to the practitioners process.aned accepting the outcome..I think Bill Paxton and John Ritter are cases where the family tried malpractice suits but don't think they won them...could be wrong.

    I didn't say sue the doctor, I said sue the judge for medical malpractice.

    Judges don't practice medicine...not following you here. If you sued them it'd have to be for an unfair judgement wouldn't it? Legal malpractice maybe...

    Israel reporting that natural antibody immunity is 13x more effective against transmission, hospitalization and death than mRNA vaccination. Study of approximately 700k people, more extensive than studies done here.

    Heard this yesterday on 1080 when driving home. Didn't realize Clapton was still alive, and by the sound of this song, he might not be. His worst song, by far, that I've ever heard.

    Eric Clapton is, and always has been, Rory Gallagher Lite. Amazing how far one guy can ride on the back of tragedy…….

    I honestly think the guy's lifelong abuse of his body has caught up with him..I heard he can barely play the guitar for long anymore due to acute arthritis and his brain has to be a prime candidate for dementia after all those years of addiction and heavy alcoholism...he's turning into the "get off my lawn kid" guy....
