The problem was that people were taking the variation that was not specifically for humans.

Also taking a toxic drug that is meant to kill parasites surely has side effects, so you maybe should not give it to people who don't need it, especially if they're already sick.

imo, There's too many "probably"s in your reply

im thinking; if they were so concerned about safety, they should also not start prescribing asperin from the getgo, for the same reasons they banned ivermectin, not knowing how the body would react. (Remember ivermectin safety is also already documented since 1970)

Actually, asperin is imo also contraversial, as scientific literature can't come to a single conclusion. one of those studies warning against using asperin

The problem was that people were taking the variation that was not specifically for humans because authorities denied them access to the variation for human use.
