A reevaluation of newer evidence on ivermectin showed that it is still not recommended as a COVID-19 treatment, the Philippine Department of Health (DOH) said Wednesday as two lawmakers gear up to distribute the antiparasitic drug in Quezon City.
Health Undersecretary Maria Rosario Vergeire said a group of experts, composed of medical societies and the government’s health and regulatory agencies, found a “very low quality of evidence” on the use of ivermectin as a COVID-19 treatment.
The group found “insufficient evidence” to support the use of ivermectin on mild to moderate COVID-19 cases and also recommended against the use of the drug on severe cases, Vergeire said.
“These are all conditional recommendations because of the very low quality of evidence that are existing right now internationally,” she said in an online briefing.
"The push for a local clinical trial for ivermectin is really good so that we would have sufficient and better evidence." She added.
The DOH issued the reminder after Representatives Rodante Marcoleta and Mike Defensor said they would distribute ivermectin for free on Thursday.
Vergeire stressed that only five hospitals have been granted a compassionate special permit (CSP) to use ivermectin on COVID-19 patients.
The DOH has issued several warnings against the use of unregistered drugs amid calls to use ivermectin on COVID-19 patients.
The World Health Organization, United States Food and Drug Administration, European Medicines Agency, and even ivermectin manufacturer Merck have all advised against the use of ivermectin as a COVID-19 treatment.

Several of those roads lead to 💰💰💰
Ivermectin does not.
Don’t tell that case to skeptics in this thread, they will always trot out the one word -— ANECDOTAL.
It doesn’t count ( to them ).

Great news. Thanks.
I recall reading a similar story, early on in the NY nursing home atrocity, where an infected Grandma - living in an assisted living - somehow was able to get the HCQ protocol treatment, and recovered quickly.
The left and the ChiComs (same diff, I know).
Because doin' right ain't got no end.
gas_bag is here to propagandize, not explain.
You’re too late 😂
Kefir, the yogurt drink is looking good. I don’t trust much anymore, but word of mouth of like minded friends. Quercetin, too.
BigPharma $$ = our taxpayer $$.
Just ask their Dear Leader FRAUDci.
Yeah, the anecdotal evidence claiming that vitamin C cured scurvy went on for 150 years before it was accepted as fact. The medical establishment fought tooth and nails against it. They would fit right in in that time period.
Thanks for the hot tip! I see that kefir has a nice hit of vitamin D in it.
HCQ, almost forgot about that one. It’s probably a victim of brainwashing even though it was safe for like 80 years. Experimental vaccines, now that’s GOOD stuff!

HCQ....safe, effective, low cost.....BAD.
Experimental and PRICEY shots.....GOOD.
Now, open your checkbook!
(BTW, who you gonna believe? Gassy bag or the Czech Republic Ministry of Health?)
