People Who Received Ivermectin Were Better Off, Study Finds
The Epoch Times ^ | 3/7/24 | Zachary Stieber

People who tested positive for COVID-19 and took ivermectin as a treatment recovered faster than a comparison group, a new study found.

The time to self-reported recovery was a median of two days faster among the ivermectin recipients, according to the large UK study.

The quicker recovery period was statistically significant.

People who received ivermectin were also less likely to be hospitalized or die, with 1.6 percent of ivermectin recipients being hospitalized or dying versus 4 percent of the comparison group, which received typical care, which in the UK is largely focused on managing symptoms.

Ivermectin recipients also enjoyed a reduction of severe symptoms and sustained recovery, according to the study.

“Ivermectin is readily available globally, has been in wide use for many other infectious conditions so it’s a well-known medicine with a good safety profile, and because of the early promising results in some studies it is already being widely used to treat COVID-19 in several countries,” Dr. Christopher Butler, a University of Oxford professor and joint chief investigator of the trial, said when it was announced ivermectin would be assessed. “By including ivermectin in a large-scale trial like PRINCIPLE, we hope to generate robust evidence to determine how effective the treatment is against COVID-19, and whether there are benefits or harms associated with its use.”

>>Really makes you wonder why they aren’t studying this drug more extensively.

Patents have expired, it is nearly as cheap as aspirin, there is no money to be made.

Yep. The same reason they fought against its use for Covid.

Makes you wonder if they have the cure for cancer too.

Thank you for posting READINABLUESTATE.

Hasn't FDA been tying to discourage Ivermectin, telling everybody that Ivermectin is for animals? Correction welcome.

I am surprised that Ivermectin was discovered, as opposed to being a lab-developed drug for hopeful patent. Correction welcome.

"William Campbell and Satoshi Ōmura won the 2015 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for its discovery and applications." —Ivermectin"

Medical authorities complain about Ivermectin not being tested for humans. Well, neither have experimental, profitable government contract CV19 jabs been tested for humans.

In fact, emphasizing that I am not medically trained, please consider alleged problems with CV19 experimental jab: (The following list not intended to be complete.)

Also, note that the most significant rise in CV19 hospitalizations towards the end of 2023 as of Nov. 18, 2023 are the dark orange and light orange-colored states above the latitude of the southern border of Kansas where vitamin D3 is deficient in shorter sunlight days of winter, corrections, insights welcome.

Vitamin D - The Sunshine Vitamin (non-FR)

Finally, I still wonder if medical history might have turned out happier if vitamin D3 had been discovered before vaccines were discovered and CV19 experimental jabs had been invented.
