Original Note:
The FDA did not 'admit' anything new. In response to a lawsuit, the FDA said in a court filing that by law they cannot prevent doctors from prescribing any approved medication, including Ivermectin. https://www.courthousenews.com/ivermectin-proponents-ask-fifth-circuit-to-revive-lawsuit-against-fda/ The same lie also made the rounds in 2022 https://www.factcheck.org/2022/11/fda-did-not-change-position-on-ivermectin-use-contrary-to-online-claims/
