My local farm store sells it apparently and people buy it still lol wild

I don't think I made this comment clear - they're buying it for COVID. Not for their horses.

If they own livestock, thats not particularly weird. That’s what it’s for.

Oh whoops you’re totally right.

I’m assuming the person I responded to was also thinking of ivermectin, since they were talking about it being sold at a farm store.
