A GOLD Coast man who ordered Ivermectin tablets online from India has fought a running battle with Customs and Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) bureaucrats who lied about tests they claim showed the tablets were “counterfeit goods”.

The months-long battle has revealed that the TGA has no scientific tests to justify its ban on Ivermectin, despite years of strict government enforcement preventing Australians from accessing the drug.
The lying and disgusting TGA bureaucrats would rather Australians still get the dangerous mRNA jabs because their bosses, including so-called Health Minister Mark Butler are under the influence of slimy, lying big pharma lobbyists who have paid the TGA $45 million over the last five years.
The payments were recently exposed by Senator Malcolm Roberts, who has been repeatedly lied to by the TGA bureaucrats over the safety and efficacy of mRNA injections. Yet these same lying bureaucrats are treated as purveyors of infallible truths by the mainstream media and the major parties.
After years of denying what many doctors in India, South America, Japan and indeed the US and Australia knew about Ivermectin being an effective treatment for coronavirus, a study published in the US National Library of Medicine found that “a five-day course of Ivermectin for the treatment of COVID-19 may reduce the duration of illness”. Numerous other studies have similar results.
James Jones’ saga began in August 2024, when he legally purchased a shipment of Ivermectin from India. The package was tracked to Melbourne, but after multiple inquiries, it became clear that it had been seized without explanation. Attempts to recover the package through Australia Post and Melbourne’s mail centre led to dead ends.
In October 2024, he sought help from Gold Coast Federal MP Cameron Caldwell, but it wasn’t until November that a Border Force Seizure Notice was finally issued—months after the package’s arrival.
Determined to recover the goods, Mr Jones formally applied for their return using the correct government paperwork (Form B144, lodged on December 5, 2024), but the request was swiftly denied, with officials claiming the Ivermectin was counterfeit.
“I lodged a Freedom of Information Request, and then the bureaucratic time-wasting began. They instead demanded scope clarification and batch numbers and product details, despite already being in possession of the seized package,” he said.
“When the TGA finally provided documents to justify their decision, they were vague and lacking in scientific substance. In February 2025, I submitted a formal demand for the specific tests and evidence on which the TGA relied to declare Ivermectin unsafe. The response? An admission that no such tests exist.
“For years, the TGA maintained that Ivermectin was unsafe, allowing the government to push COVID-19 vaccines as the sole treatment option. Yet, this newly uncovered admission confirms that the ban was enforced without any scientific testing or justification.”
Mr Jones says that despite this, the fight for accountability isn’t over and the government agency continues to refuse the release of the seized Ivermectin. He says there is reason to suspect it was destroyed as early as August 2024, long before any official notice was issued.
“This revelation raises serious questions about government transparency, public health policy, and whether Australians were denied access to viable treatments based on politics rather than science.
“As the battle for the return of the seized Ivermectin continues, one thing is now undeniable — the TGA’s ban on Ivermectin was never backed by scientific evidence in the first place.”
Cairns News notes that Prof. Robyn Langham was the subject of an official complaint by United Australia Party chairman Clive Palmer over Langham’s attempts to shut down submissions on Covid from Central Queensland doctor Melissa McCann.
Dr McCann had also made submissions to the House Parliamentary Standing Committee for Health, Aged
Care and Sport inquiry into Long COVID and Repeated COVID Infections.
“For you to personally seek to impose a sanction upon Dr McCann for her expressing her political position is contempt of the House of Representatives. It may well be that the Australian Senate will want you to explain your position by appearing before it,” Mr Palmer wrote.
“Dr McCann is also chair of our party’s Health and Policy Committee. Dr McCann’s material is available to
all members of the Federal Parliament and I am aware that it is being actively debated. The High Court of Australia has made it abundantly clear in its judgements that all Australians possess the right of political free speech. Your letter seeks to limit that right and prejudice our party’s activities.”
Dr McCann went on to file a class action lawsuit against the key figures in the Covid-19 vaccine roll-out – Greg Hunt, Brendan Murphy, John Skerritt, and Paul Kelly. A motion to dismiss was heard in the Federal Court last November and a ruling is still being considered by the judge.
Meanwhile the writing is on the wall for the corrupt Australian public health establishment with the radical changing of the medical guard under the Trump administration. The new director of the National Institutes of Health is Dr Jay Bhattacharya, one of the early outspoken critics of the Fauci Covid-19 response.
In this video Dr. Bhattacharya addresses “important trade-offs” involved in COVID vaccine recommendations, particularly their varying impacts on children and older adults. He explains that benefits for children are minimal due to their low risk of severe illness, while potential side effects pose greater concerns. Dr. Bhattacharya also shares concerns around childhood vaccines and autism with US Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jnr.
