A South African Medical Dr who asked to remain anonymous took Ivermectin(a drug intended for animals) after he succumbed to COVID-19 symptoms and claims that he has fully recovered. While there are approved uses for ivermectin in humans, it is not approved for the prevention or treatment of COVID-19.

The South African Health authorities says the pill can have severe side effects such as blindness, skin rash, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and stomach pain. However, the Dr who took them claims that he had minimal side effects and no major severe effects.

Despite the warnings from health authorities, the demand for the drug in the black market seems to be increasing. Recently the police arrested a 43-year-old man for the possession of illegal ivermectin valued at R100 000.00, They have also raided Ahmed Al-Kadi Private Hospital in Durban, which they alleged was dispensing the banned drug.

“Do you think the drug can really combat the COVID-19 virus?”

If you have recently read the shocking and devastating news of a cow that killed and mauled a woman in Eastern Cape Qumbu, you are probably asking yourself: how the hell can a cow kill and eat human meat or moreover how can a cow eat meat at all? So in this article, we look at the possible reasons why a cow would eat meat and ultimately a human being.

Cows are herbivore animals by nature meaning that they only eat plants and their digestive system is polygastric, which means that it is suited to digest only plants. However, there are rare cases whereby cows have been seen eating chickens and more recently the one that ate a human being. Some of the possible reasons why these rare incidents occur are because of the following:

“The inclusion of meat in cattle feed”

“While the inclusion of meat in cattle feed is done to make cows bigger to drive profit, the act is disliked by many”

In some countries, such feeds are banned. In fact, most veterinarians advise against giving feed containing meat to your cattle. So this act could also be one of the reasons we would see a cow eating meat.

“The need for certain nutrients”

Some experts say “When cows lack certain nutrients in their diet, they may eat to satisfy the need”.

“Some animal diseases could create taste for meat”

Some veterinary doctors also link castle taste for meat to diseases. So please always take your cattle to the doctor for regular check-ups.

Our research shows that cattle farmers should always be careful about what their animals eat and the types of diseases that they have, especially in rural areas where cattle interact with humans on a daily basis. Always avoid leaving the cattle abandoned without a shepherd and also avoid the inclusion of meat in their feed at all costs.
