The original article was posted here yesterday and I picked it apart. In one sentence McElyea said the problem is that rural people are accustomed to getting stuck by needles when dosing their cattle with ivermectin, and in the next sentence he said they downed an entire tube of horse paste in one fell swoop. Anyone familiar with dosing ivermectin would know not to take the dosage for a 1250 pound horse all at once. The lie was glaringly obvious, and he's probably the least effective liar I've ever encountered.
Keep in mind a couple of things, no matter what he said 100% chance media spun it for an agenda and very likely didn’t quote him correctly. Not defending the guy, I have just been savagely misquoted by the media in the past.
Also keep in mind er docs often work at multiple hospitals. Unsure if he was referencing that one specifically.
People who lie never see the holes in their lies, whether subtle or glaring. Anyone who listens well can pick up even the subtle lies. I've done it and challenged the liars to explain the inconsistencies, and all I ever got for my trouble was another round of lies, some of which conflicted with the original lie and others which presented entirely new inconsistencies. My conclusion: Trying to get sense out of a chronic liar is a pointless endeavor.
The mental gymnastics are fascinating to watch, but only up to a point. After that, they're just annoying. I've also experienced the disheartening with one of my sisters and with someone who I thought was a good friend. When I finally understood that the lying was a chronic condition, I disengaged from both.

Moral of the story: don’t talk to the media ever.
Wait, their argument was that the people overdosing are the people who routinely calculate the drugs dosage per bodyweight?
I'd trust a farmer more than the doctor who might have prescribed it once in their career to someone who went to a third world country.
That's what the 'doctor' said in the original article, which is how we know it's a lie.
Stealing this....

And which rural people accustomed to dosing cattle by weight would know better than to do.
