Fear, greed, need for control are killing people. Fear is instilled in the pharmacists so they will not fill a valid prescription for Ivermectin. A drug not controlled by Big Pharma. The drug works. I have seen it first hand. When a person has to bend the normal route to get a prescription, one that should be passed out free, there is a problem. Ivermectin cost less than a vaccine shot and is known to work.

Greed. Ask yourself who has been making money over this instilled fear?

Control of the people and the trampling of our Constitution.
