Effort to expand access to unapproved COVID-19 treatments applauded in Kan.

TOPEKA — Dozens of anti-vaccine Kansans greeted Sen. Mark Steffen with raucous applause Tuesday as he
announced immediate and forthcoming bills that would undermine local health officials and promote off-label
use of prescription drugs.

Steffen, an anesthesiologist, criticized mainstream medical experts for keeping treatments like hydroxychloroquine
and ivermectin from COVID-19 patients. In a bill introduced in special session but not acted on and in a recent
resolution introduced in a Senate committee, the Hutchinson Republican advocated for more avenues to use these
treatments that the Food and Drug Administration deemed unsafe.

I had to start taking Furosemide lately and I have an over abundance of that substance every day! I do not live too far from the Interstate, hmmmm. I could use a little more cash to feed the horses and the goats.

While watching this I got to wondering how many other elected Rs are pushing legislation that allow
the patient to tell the doctor how to do their job. Will they go after mechanics next?
