The accuracy of the "new COVID cases" numbers is going to get worse when people start using those new free at-home test kits.

Only if people self report their "positive" test results...

Stop testing healthy people! Cases mean nothing only sicknesses and deaths. The real tragedy is that after two years hospitals offer no therapeutics. The State of Florida offers monoclonal treatments. Shame on the FDA and the CDC!

It just seems like it’s no better. My wife & I are very fortunate, we haven’t gotten Covid or had any symptoms of it. We’re up to date on our shots but don’t always where mask but we do try very hard to get to close to other people!

There are 50 States with approx 100 million people unvaccinated and sick exactly how many therapeutics is there available does Florida get it all?
Or are you talking about Ivermectin is FDA-approved for use in animals for prevention of heartworm disease in some small animal species, and for treatment of certain internal and external parasites in various animal species.

First of all, where do you get your "approx 100 million people unvaccinated and SICK"?

How many of them already caught and recovered from Covid?

Second of all, Ivermectin was developed for HUMAN use, then adapted for livestock use (just as most medicines are...) The creator of Ivermectin won the Nobel Prize for his development of the drug for HUMAN use... It is FDA approved for HUMAN use and is used daily in countries where parasites are a problem...

Third of all, many, many drugs were developed for one use, then adapted for another use. Minoxidil, for example, was initially use as a blood pressure medicine before it was discovered it also helped with hair loss...
