CDC endorsed use of ivermectin … for Afghan refugees!

DANIEL HOROWITZ   |   September 03, 2021

Looking at 2019 CDC guidance, one has to wonder if one of the reasons why there is such a run on ivermectin is because our own government is using it. And no, not for horses, but for refugees. Yet these same government agencies are running a blood libel-style smear campaign against the drug and its users by misleading people into conflating it with a veterinarian version of the drug, leading many people to think it's some sort of poison for humans. In the process, they are leaving thousands of COVID patients without any other options for treatment.

It's not clear whether the hundreds of thousands of Afghan refugees will be forced to get vaccinated like American international travelers, but one thing is clear: They will likely get the ivermectin that most Americans can no longer access. It turns out that in 2019, the CDC issued guidance for refugees from Africa, Latin America, and the Middle East to be given ivermectin pre-emptively for potential infections.

The CDC advises the International Organization for Migration (IOM) physicians who screen the refugees for departure, and U.S. doctors who treat them upon arrival, to prescribe "all Middle Eastern, Asian, North African, Latin American, and Caribbean refugees" with ivermectin and albendazole.

all Middle Eastern, Asian, North African, Latin American, and Caribbean refugees

So, is there something specific to Europeans and North Americans (e.g., Native Americans) that is anathema to ivermectin?

Or is this just more racism on the part of the liberals in the CDC?

It's not like the US intelligence-military complex to conduct human experiments on the disabled, minorities, prisoners, and unsuspecting college students.

Those coming across the southern border are bringing COVID with them and not being vaccinated. Now Ivermectin, which is a no-no for U.S. citizens is being given to Afghanis.

Sure seems to me a bit of ethnic cleansing and reducing the white population is going on to me.

Reports and studies are indicating that the vaccines does not prevent COVID and certainly doesn't stop the transmission, but 1, 2, now 3 jabs are required and a vaccination card is given out.

I'm still waiting for reports to start rolling in on what the long term side effects from these vaccines are.  We do know that people, including kids are dying from the vaccines. 

I also heard today that the majority of the people do fine with the first dose. The second dose is where many people suffer side effects; especially from the Pfeizer vaccine, yet the FDA approved it.

The article title is rather misleading:

Given the date, the target was probably parasitic worms.

And head lice, scabies, river blindness (onchocerciasis), strongyloidiasis, trichuriasis, ascariasis, and lymphatic filariasis.
