The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

clarkcountytoday.com - FDA agrees to remove anti ivermectin posts off the internet in lawsuit settlement

The Appeals Court had written in its decision: ‘The FDA is not a physician. It has authority to inform, announce, and apprise — but not to endorse, denounce, or advise’

“After nearly two years and a resounding rebuke by the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals, the FDA has agreed to remove its misleading social media posts and consumer directives regarding ivermectin and Covid-19,” said Bowden.

The Appeals Court had written in its decision: “The FDA is not a physician. It has authority to inform, announce, and apprise — but not to endorse, denounce, or advise.”

The posts in question include the FDA’s infamous crack posted on several social media sites on August 21, 2021, reading, “You are not a horse. You are not a cow. Seriously, y’all. Stop it.”
