    It’s a reference to Joe Rogan, like many other idiots, trying to treat his COVID-19 infection with Ivermectin, which is medicine made for horses.

        There’s a lot of dismissing of ivermectin as “horse medicine,” and some of that might be ignorance of its human applications. But a lot of it is also because people are buying ivermectin manufactured for horses in an apple-flavored paste form. I have family members who stocked up on it.
