Ivermectin, ipinagbawal, Erap, gumaling na sa COVID

Tumanggi ang doktor ni dating Pangulong Joseph ‘Erap’ Estrada na ipainom sa kanya ang Ivermectin, ayon sa panayam kay dating Sen. Jinggoy Estrada ngayong umaga, Abril 19.

Kuwento ni Jinggoy, "I have consulted the doctors of my father regarding Ivermectin because there was lots of report na nakakagaling nga raw. I consulted the doctor and the doctor said, 'I will not give Ivermectin to your dad because that's only for animals…' I really have to follow the doctor's advice."

Sa ngayon ay nakatakdang ilipat sa regular room ng ospital ang nagbi-birthday na si Erap, at mamaya rin ay bibisitahin ni Jinggoy ang ama upang dalhan ng birthday cake at batiin sa ika-84 na kaarawan.

Sabi pa ni Jinggoy, "All his vital signs are already normal, 'yung kanyang oxygen flow is already normal. His blood pressure has already been stabilized. Kaya sabi ng doktora, he can be transferred to a regular room today.”

Matatandaang 2 ospital na ang nagsumite ng compassionate special permit (CSP) sa Food and Drug Administration (FDA) upang gamitin kontra COVID-19 ang nasabing veterinary product. Bukod dito, ilang pulitiko na rin ang umaming uminom sila ng Ivermectin.

"Maraming gamot na ibinibigay sa aking ama so I cannot credit kung ano nagpagaling sa kanya," dagdag pa ni Jinggoy.

Nagbabala naman ang Department of Health (DOH) na kasong paglabag sa Republic Act 9711 o The FDA Act of 2009 ang isasampa sa mga mahuhuling gagamit ng Ivermectin nang walang CSP.
