New Hampshire moved closer to becoming the first U.S. state to offer ivermectin without a prescription on March 16.
By a 183—159 vote, New Hampshire’s Republican-dominated House of Representatives approved HB1022, which would allow pharmacists to dispense ivermectin under a standing order, meaning that anyone could go to a pharmacist and get human-grade ivermectin.
