BREAKING BILL UPDATE: TOMORROW MORNING, FRIDAY, JANUARY 28, I will be presenting SB711 which is the broader off-label prescription bill Senator Steve Newman referenced this past Thursday in Senate Health and Education when SB73 was heard . The bills are similar but SB711 is a broader bill that allows doctors to prescribe ivermectin, hydroxychloroquine and other off-label prescriptions.
We will have numerous doctors and healthcare provider experts providing testimony. We invite those of you with compelling stories to share to attend as well. We need to allow doctors be doctors and take the politics out of medicine.
This SB711 will be presented to the Senate Health Professions SubCommittee: Barker(Chair), Saslaw, Newman, Edwards, Lewis, Dunnavant, Suetterlein, Pillion

They need to change the bill so that it allows doctors to prescribe based o their own judgement and NOT specific to ivermectin. This is just another form of control.
The bill as it is has virtually no chance of passage in the Senate, where the Democrats have a majority. So what chance do you think this would have? Personally I would not support a bill like that. Doctors could prescribe Remdesivir or any other crap and kill your loved one and you'd have no recourse at all. The problem isn't that doctors can't prescribe any old thing they want, the problem is the paid off hospitals punishing doctors for prescribing a proven cure for Covid.
