A Utah Republican lawmaker is striking a blow against the medical establishment's iron grip on pharmaceuticals by introducing legislation that would make ivermectin available over the counter at pharmacies.

State Rep. Trevor Lee has filed House Bill 96, which would allow pharmacists to dispense the antiparasitic drug without an individual prescription - provided a doctor preauthorizes distribution and the pharmacist conducts a state-approved risk assessment.

This move comes after years of the medical establishment and Big Tech systematically suppressing information about ivermectin's potential benefits during the COVID-19 pandemic. Remember how they labeled it "horse dewormer" while simultaneously allowing experimental mRNA shots to be pushed on the American people?

Fighting Medical Tyranny

Lee's legislation represents exactly the kind of pushback Patriots have been demanding against the medical-industrial complex that spent years denying Americans access to safe, affordable treatments. While Big Pharma raked in billions from expensive COVID treatments, doctors who dared prescribe ivermectin faced licensing threats and social media censorship.

The bill would require pharmacists to complete specific training and maintain records of ivermectin distribution, ensuring proper oversight without the bureaucratic stranglehold that has kept this medication locked away from ordinary Americans.

"This is about giving people choice and access to medications that have been safely used for decades," a source familiar with the legislation told reporters.

Ivermectin has been prescribed billions of times worldwide and won the Nobel Prize in Medicine for its developers. Yet during COVID, the entire establishment conspired to demonize it while pushing untested vaccines with unknown long-term effects.

The Real Question

Utah's move could spark a nationwide trend as red states continue rejecting federal overreach in healthcare decisions. With Trump back in the White House and his team committed to draining the swamp, expect more states to follow Utah's lead in restoring medical freedom.

The question isn't whether ivermectin works - it's why the establishment fought so hard to keep it away from the American people in the first place. What else are they hiding in their quest to protect corporate profits over patient choice?

My brother-in-law in India said ivermectin was readily available there during the pandemic and worked great for his family. Why has it taken this long to get it here?

Because there's no money in cheap, effective treatments. Follow the money trail.

Finally! Someone with the backbone to stand up to Big Pharma's stranglehold on treatments. This is exactly what we need more of in Congress.

Couldn't agree more! Our rep is actually fighting for us instead of special interests.

This is how you drain the swamp - one pharma monopoly at a time. More politicians need to learn from Utah's example and put Americans first.

Does anyone know if this applies statewide or just certain counties? Want to make sure I understand the scope of this victory.
