The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has warned against taking ivermectin for COVID-19, because it is "horse medication."

Prisoners in Arkansas who said they received ivermectin as a COVID-19 treatment without their knowledge are receiving payouts after a legal case they filed was settled.
The five inmates will each receive $2,000, according to a copy of the settlement agreement made public by the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) of Arkansas, which was representing the plaintiffs.
