Joe Rogan who is “not an anti-vax person” opens up about his COVID-19 diagnosis

Published on

Joe Rogan, a popular podcast host, comedian, and UFC commentator, stated that he has COVID-19 and was on a cocktail of drugs, including ivermectin.

Joe Rogan, a well-known podcast presenter, comedian, and UFC analyst, stated that he was diagnosed with COVID-19 and treated with a combination of therapies, including ivermectin.

Rogan stated on Wednesday in an Instagram post that he got home from a trip late on Aug. 28 ” feeling very weary.”

“I had a headache, I just felt just run down,” the 54-year-old recounted, adding, “Just to be cautious, I separated myself from the family, slept in a different part of the house, and throughout the night, I got fevers and sweats—I knew what was going on.”

Rogan said that after his COVID-19 diagnosis, he decided to use “all kinds of meds … everything,”

“Monoclonal antibodies, ivermectin, Z-pak, prednisone—everything,” he said. “And I also got an anti-D drip and a vitamin drip and I did that three days in a row.”

Rogan said that as of Wednesday, he felt “great,” and “pretty [expletive] good.”

His vaccination history is unknown. He has, however, been criticized by public health officials for stating that healthy youths should not be concerned about receiving a COVID-19 vaccine.

“I’m not an anti-vax person,” Rogan later clarified on his show in late April. “I believe they’re safe and encourage many people to take them.”

However, this approach to combating the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus has met with opposition from other physicians and federal agencies, including the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA), which has stated that the drug is not FDA-approved for use in humans to treat or prevent COVID-19.

“Taking large doses of this drug is dangerous and can cause serious harm,” according to the FDA.

“If you have a prescription for ivermectin for an FDA-approved use, get it from a legitimate source and take it exactly as prescribed.”

The agency said that ivermectin is “often used in the U.S. to treat or prevent parasites in animals,” and that it “has received multiple reports of patients who have required medical support and been hospitalized after self-medicating with ivermectin intended for horses.”

The FDA warned that “many inactive ingredients found in animal products aren’t evaluated for use in people, and that in some cases, it is unclear “how those inactive ingredients will affect how ivermectin is absorbed in the human body.”

The FDA said that it “has not reviewed data to support use of ivermectin in COVID-19 patients to treat or to prevent COVID-19.”
