Introduction

An appeals court ruled that a group of doctors could continue their lawsuit against the FDA over allegations that the agency “overstepped” when it campaigned against alternative COVID-19 treatments. According to the AP, “the ruling said the campaign — which at times featured the slogan “You are not a horse!” — too often left out that the drug is sometimes prescribed for humans.”

“FDA is not a physician. It has authority to inform, announce, and apprise—but not to endorse, denounce, or advise,” wrote Judge Don Willett.

In response, Dr. Pierre Kory stated “The FDA’s campaign against ivermectin continues to be used as an excuse by hospitals to deny access to a lifesaving treatment and weaponized by medical boards to threaten the licenses of doctors who stray from the mainstream to prescribe a drug that has been proven in controlled trials to safely treat hundreds of thousands of patients around the world.”

Dr. Pierre Kory is president and cofounder of the Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance (FLCCC). In late 2020, Dr. Kory was a witness for a US Senate hearing that accused health authorities of covering up the effectiveness of alternative treatments for COVID-19. He is the author of “War On Ivermectin: The Medicine That Saved Millions And Could Have Ended The Pandemic.” Follow Dr. Kory at https://twitter.com/PierreKory
