Republicans Revive Discredited Covid-19 Treatments Hydroxychloroquine and Ivermectin in Fauci Hearing
During a congressional hearing questioning Dr. Anthony Fauci, Republican figures including Peter Navarro and Senator Ron Johnson revived claims about unproven Covid-19 treatments hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin. Navarro claimed Fauci blocked distribution of hydroxychloroquine, potentially costing thousands of lives, despite clinical trials showing the drug ineffective and dangerous. Johnson insisted ivermectin 'works' and waved studies, though the FDA warns against using the livestock dewormer for Covid-19, citing lack of efficacy and hospitalization risks. The article notes these claims persist six years after the pandemic began, contradicting scientific consensus. A secondary story covers Epstein survivors delivering files to Senate offices to oppose Attorney General nominee Todd Blanche.
