America First Legal (AFL) has sued the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for illegally concealing government records related to the suppression of hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) and ivermectin to treat COVID-19.
Last year, AFL filed Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests to obtain documents to determine when and why government officials, including Dr. Anthony Fauci, decided to discourage and suppress the use of HCQ and Ivermectin to treat or mitigate COVID-19 symptoms. HHS and the FDA have failed to turn over these documents.
America First Legal is committed to holding these agencies accountable under the law and uncovering these documents for the American public.
Statement from Reed D. Rubinstein, America First Legal Senior Counselor and Director of Oversight and Investigation:
“The true reasons for the federal government’s assault on HCQ and ivermectin have never been made public. We don’t know why – in the midst of a pandemic – the government went after doctors prescribing these potentially useful drugs and coerced pharmacies into rejecting prescriptions. But AFL will keep fighting to see that the truth about Dr. Fauci and his colleagues is exposed.“ said Reed D. Rubinstein.
