Former Rep. Matt Gaetz used his new job as news anchor at OAN to promote ivermectin, a drug used to treat parasites in both humans and animals which was wrongly touted as a cure for Covid-19 during the early stages of the pandemic, especially by Republicans and skeptics of treatments recommended by health authorities.
"You probably heard about ivermectin, the medication that has been making the waves for years and helped so many during Covid. But let's be honest, finding a reliable source to get it is not as easy as it should be," Gaetz said during a passage of "The Matt Gaetz Show."
