I did some digging the other day on some studies that supposedly showed that Ivermectin had little effect on covid. These have been part of meta studies that are used to claim it does not work. However, a deep dive into the original studies showed many of them were flawed. One such meta analysis posted here on FR had 3 flawed studies included!

Here is one such study: https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/fullarticle/2777389
The study authors concluded: The findings do not support the use of ivermectin for treatment of mild COVID-19, although larger trials may be needed to understand effects on other clinically relevant outcomes.

BUT if you look at the study, it is rife with issues. Some are discussed here:

That is just one study, I found several with major flaws. I find it incredibly interesting that TPTB have to include flawed studies in their attack on ivermectin, knowing that most people will never look past the headlines.

But as a freeper was told yesterday, we are not smart enough to understand these studies. It should be up to the experts to tell us what to think 🙄
