Doncha just love the way the media refers to Ivermectin as an anti-parasitic drug (for horses) but fails to mention it’s been prescribed to humans for DECADES for scabies.

Ivermectin for COVID-19: real-time meta analysis of 63 studies
Covid Analysis, Sep 14, 2021, Version 118 — discussion updates (V1 Nov 26, 2020) [GMK response, Elgazzar]
ShareTweetPDFStudiesAdoptionSubmit Feedback
•Meta analysis using the most serious outcome reported shows 69% [54‑79%] and 86% [75‑92%] improvement for early treatment and prophylaxis, with similar results after exclusion based sensitivity analysis and restriction to peer-reviewed studies or Randomized Controlled Trials.
•Statistically significant improvements are seen for mortality, hospitalization, recovery, cases, and viral clearance. 29 studies show statistically significant improvements in isolation.
Studies Prophylaxis Early treatment Late treatment Patients Authors
All studies 63 86% [75‑92%] 69% [54‑79%] 40% [24‑52%] 26,422 623
Peer-reviewed 45 86% [74‑93%] 70% [52‑81%] 43% [21‑59%] 17,316 490
Randomized Controlled Trials 31 84% [25‑96%] 64% [48‑74%] 30% [2‑50%] 6,561 369
Percentage improvement with ivermectin treatment
•There is evidence of a negative publication bias, and the probability that an ineffective treatment generated results as positive as the 63 studies is estimated to be 1 in 1 trillion.
•While many treatments have some level of efficacy, they do not replace vaccines and other measures to avoid infection. Only 27% of ivermectin studies show zero events in the treatment arm.
•Elimination of COVID-19 is a race against viral evolution. No treatment, vaccine, or intervention is 100% available and effective for all current and future variants. All practical, effective, and safe means should be used. Those denying the efficacy of treatments share responsibility for the increased risk of COVID-19 becoming endemic; and the increased mortality, morbidity, and collateral damage.
•The evidence base is much larger and has much lower conflict of interest than typically used to approve drugs.
•All data to reproduce this paper and sources are in the appendix. See [Bryant, Hariyanto, Kory, Lawrie, Nardelli] for other meta analyses with similar results confirming efficacy.

For many different things, not just scabies. It is a WHO essential drug in fact.

....fails to mention it’s been prescribed to humans for DECADES for scabies.


And, fail to mention that it was invented/developed.....FOR humans....for an eye disease. A Nobel Prize winning development, at that.

Lying, MSM.

Ivermectin appears to work for the ‘Rona if taken early.

There are anecdotes of it helping people who are at deaths door.

One would think that a qualified study (double blind) would be in order for Ivermectin, Hydroxychloroquine, and Z-Pac.

You know, like real science. It’s been 18 months since the ‘rona, you would have thought we would have information that thoroughly destroys both if they were inefective and dangerous as the fear purveyors have said. As it stands now, you are accused of heresy if you question the current methods of treatment.
