David, you said this:

Well, first of all, it's not up to me to decide.

Ivermectin is available and people are getting it.

“As far as Ivermectin Studies, there have been none that have been conclusive and only one that was peered review and it was found to have errors.

The Studies done however that are not peer reviewed Do give Ivermectin credence for mild and some moderate cases.

What I am proving is that there are many peer-reviewed Ivermectin studies. You said there were none. Additionally, there never is just one study that proves anything, it is a preponderance of evidence and one may be enough to show a valid conclusion, but it’s then up to us to determine if that limited research is enough for us to try out, based on the risks involved..

I don’t know your background so please forgive me for explaining something you may already know. Not trying to insult you.

The term “Peer Reviewed” is probably the latest phrase or words being misused that came from the present situation we’re in.

A “Peer Reviewed” Study has certain methods and criteria that it must meet.
There is a deep dive review of the data presented in the paper or study.
It is done by a collection of qualified experts in their prospective field.

Data is not added or subtracted, it is analyzed to make sure the study was done following all procedures.

What a “Peer Review” is Not.

It’s not an opinion paper with its own conclusions.

It’s not a collection of data put together with the presenters commenting and breaking the data down into stats.

It’s not a paper written by a group of (even qualified experts) researchers compiling their data vs. or added data from other sources.

The Links you provided were indeed impressive and as stated, I agree with the ones I read for the most part.

However I noticed the Links you provided (The ones I was able to get to at this moment) are indeed people who are probably experts in the field so therefore they are reviewing studies so in a way the phrase “Peer Review” can be use but it’s not an actual Peer Review study as we know it pre-Covid.

Get where I’m coming from? As I said I didn’t have time to read all of the information right now, but based on what I did read.

Your Links were very informative and I hope other people also read them.
