>> By the time you come down with long covid symptoms, the damage is already done. A preventative isn’t going to help.

Ivermectin is taken both as a prophylactic AND a therapeutic. But maybe it should have been taken concurrently with the onset of COVID...? So listening to the nay-sayers and avoiding early-stage Ivermectin treatment may have actually CONTRIBUTED to what you call “long covid”...?

>> dozens of studies that debunked the wonder cream

That’s false information. A number of RECENT peer-reviewed studies in respected medical journals have established beyond a doubt the efficacy of Ivermectin in treating COVID. See, this is SCIENCE... it’s never “settled”. Especially when the early “science” is from agenda-driven agencies.

In our house we choose to believe the results of our own “clinical trials” (N=2) — 100% efficacy in reducing the severity of COVID-19 infection and flu, with no side effects (and no long covid).

” number of RECENT peer-reviewed studies in respected medical journals have established beyond a doubt the in treating COVID.*

respectfully, hogwash - after three years and many studies, they all repeat the same conclusion as seen in these studies from 2022. Prayer probably works a lot better

“Conclusions and relevance: In this randomized clinical trial of high-risk patients with mild to moderate COVID-19, ivermectin treatment during early illness did not prevent progression to severe disease. The study findings do not support the use of ivermectin for patients with COVID-19.
Trial registration: ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT04920942.
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35179551/

For outpatients, there is currently low‐ to high‐certainty evidence that ivermectin has no beneficial effect for people with COVID‐19. Based on the very low‐certainty evidence for inpatients, we are still uncertain whether ivermectin prevents death or clinical worsening or increases serious adverse events, while there is low‐certainty evidence that it has no beneficial effect regarding clinical improvement, viral clearance and adverse events. No evidence is available on ivermectin to prevent SARS‐CoV‐2 infection.

Treatment with ivermectin did not result in a lower incidence of medical admission to a hospital due to progression of Covid-19 or of prolonged emergency department observation among outpatients with an early diagnosis of Covid-19.
