tldr: Trump lied, people died.
Ivermectin for COVID is dangerous quackery, and no one who advocated its use for same should have a medical license.
Trump’s “Demon Sperm” doctor who pushed hydroxychloroquine got fined $500 for her lies.

It seems like it’s okay because the patient didn’t die from the “treatment” itself. No matter that the things the doctors prescribed are largely useless against covid.
In the first example in the article
A Wisconsin doctor in 2021 prescribed ivermectin, typically used to treat parasitic infections, to two covid-19 patients who later died of the disease. He was fined less than $4,000 — and was free to continue practicing.
Reading the linked report the doctor wasn’t found to have contributed to the death or in anyway harmed the patient.
It specifically says:
Within ninety (90) days of the date of this Order, Respondent shall at his own expense, successfully complete six (6) hours of education on the topic of recordkeeping, and three (3) hours of education on the topic of performing a patient assessment and history offered by a provider pre-approved by the Board’s monitoring liaison, including taking and passing any exam offered for the courses
because he didn’t document talking about the unproven benefit of ivermectin, and because in one patient he didn’t properly demonstrate that he checked the patient’s records for an ivermectin allergy.
