Ivermectin administered to the whole population significantly reduces malaria transmission, offering new hope in the fight against the disease.
The BOHEMIA trial, the largest study on ivermectin for malaria to date, showed a 26% reduction in new malaria infection on top of existing bed nets, providing strong evidence of ivermectin's potential as a complementary tool in malaria control.
Ivermectin, a drug traditionally used to treat neglected tropical diseases like onchocerciasis, which causes river blindness, and lymphatic filariasis, which causes elephantiasis, has been shown to reduce malaria transmission by killing the mosquitoes that feed on treated individuals.
Given the rising resistance to conventional insecticides, ivermectin could offer an effective new approach to tackling malaria transmission, especially in regions where traditional methods have become less effective.
The BOHEMIA project (Broad One Health Endectocide-based Malaria Intervention in Africa) conducted two Mass Drug Administration (MDA) trials in the high-burden malaria regions: Kwale County (Kenya) and Mopeia district (Mozambique).
The trials assessed the safety and efficacy of a single monthly dose of ivermectin (400 mcg/kg) given for three consecutive months at the start of the rainy season in reducing malaria transmission. In Kenya, the intervention targeted children aged 5–15, while in Mozambique it focused on children under five.
In Kwale County, Kenya, children who received ivermectin experienced a 26% reduction in malaria infection incidence compared to those who received albendazole, the control drug used in the study.
The trial involved over 20,000 participants and more than 56,000 treatments, demonstrating that ivermectin significantly reduced malaria infection rates—particularly among children living further from cluster borders or in areas where drug distribution was more efficient.
Moreover, the safety profile of ivermectin was favorable, with no severe drug-related adverse events and only mild, transient side effects already seen with ivermectin in campaigns against neglected tropical diseases.

It was only a single dose of 400 mcg/ kg for each month!
20,000 people were in it.
Wow.
According to the official CDC tweet, anyway. Oh wait, that was when this nobel prize winning medicine was being demonized as poison so people would have no alternative to the vax. Now it's okay for ivermectin to be a miracle drug again? How about that.
Its both an animal drug and a human drug. People just got squinky because people can actually take the animal versions because it wasn’t possible to get the human pills, or in some instances, for an affordable price.
Theres absolutely nothing wrong with the horse paste/gel ivermectin (invermectin only).
Ivermectin is an anti-parasitic drug. There are extracellular and intracellular parasites. Malaria is caused by parasites of the genus Plasmodium and are basically intracellular parasites. Spike proteins from the covid virus are also intracellular parasites. That’s why the ivermectin is effective. It’s a no brainer and it’s cheap.
other control methods
like a stiff gin and tonic
i thought hydroxychloroquine was already the standard for malaria
there is no animal or human version
they are the same
the only difference is quantity
the dose for a 600lb horse is significantly more
than for a 200lb man
mine is 21mg
Noticed at the beginning of Covid central Africa, that was taking Ivermectin to prevent river blindness, had hardly any cases of Covid.
When I found out that I was exposed to Covid I started taking it. My friends spent 5 days in bed. I sneezed 5 times!
It worked great!!!!
Does a monthly prophylactic dose help protect against you-know-what?
Works for Lyme Disease too.
Good thinking, lizma2!
Gee, I wonder why?
Ivermectin lowers a LOT of things … parasites … cancer markers …. Lyme disease … jab effects …. Etc, etc.
That’s why TPTB were h3ll bent on banning and smearing it.
The prophylactic for you-know-what (YKW) is one capsule on Tuesday and one on Friday. That is what is written on all Rx of (YKW) to prevent YKW.
Having said that RFKjr should refer for legal action against the FDA officials who bad mouthed YKW during YKW.
At only 25% effective, I’m betting the mosquitos will soon develop a tolerance for ivermectin.
“The prophylactic for you-know-what (YKW) is one capsule on Tuesday and one on Friday.”
Our Compounding Pharmacist prescribed 2X/week, so I do the Tuesday and Friday thing.
My “YKW” is to (hopefully) stave off a recurrence of breast cancer. I’m glad that it seems to be beneficial for so many other things.
They always knew it help against malaria. This isn’t new info
Bkmk
My older brother just finished chemo for some severe cancer, probably agent orange/vaxx caused. I’m trying to convince him on the ivermectin. Did a Dr. prescribe that as prophylactic for you or did you have to figure it out yourself?
I am on a higher dose because the vaxx is still trying to kill me. It’s nice to know I can kill mosquitoes.
