Chicago's WGN-TV reported on QAnon supporters demanding ivermectin treatment at Amita Resurrection Medical Center. The segment analyzes the rhetoric used by Chicago health officials to discourage the drug's use. Mention is made of families suing hospitals to allow ivermectin treatment for hospitalized relatives.

WGN TV and other outlets aired reports claiming that hydroxychloroquine is toxic to cells and causes DNA damage, citing researchers from the USC Keck School of Medicine. These reports are criticized as being part of a coordinated script to discredit the drug, which has been used safely for decades to treat malaria and lupus. The timing of these "toxic risk" warnings is seen as a push to promote vaccines as the only solution.
