Original Note:
The court decision on ivermectin is problematic legally and on policy grounds. Legally, the court did not interpret – or address at all – the statutory provision the FDA relied on for the posts, 21 U.S.C. 375(b), and ignored the jurisprudence interpreting it. https://www.newsweek.com/fda-settles-lawsuit-over-ivermectin-social-media-posts-1882562#:~:text=The%20FDA%20has%20agreed%20to,for%20animals%20and%20not%20humans.
