“ If I have covid, ivermectin won’t hurt me, a 5 day course costs about $10 and shows results in 2-3 days that might stop the viral progression and need for hospitalization ….why deny it?”
It will hurt you if this five days of treatment, does not work, and this delays getting treatments that will work.
Doctors on this site have written that they are not opposed to this treatment on a “right to try” basis, but at some point , if it is not working then more effective treatments need to be used. There is a finite amount of time in which to turn around the course of the disease.
But, I am not a doctor, so there is that.
You have nicely stated what my position is — if Ivermectin is procured (mostly from farm stores to hear it told her) does not turn you around in 24 hours — its time to skip it and get to monoclonals.

what treatments might that be???
They have no treatments.
Deliberately.
“Doctors on this site”
what “doctors”? ... the only “doctors” claiming or implying that they’re doctors here are absolute fakes and therefore the worst sort of trolls ... REAL doctors are generally NOT going to offer medical opinions on a site like this: WAY too much liability and ethical issues, AND they don’t get paid!
You do realize that anecdotal reports indicate that ivermectin, if it is successful, starts to work fast, results show in 2-3 days and it can be prescribed and taken at home…right?
Yet home treatment for early diagnosis consists of….nothing.
Well, take tylenol maybe.
Wanna bet which has killed more people? Ivermectin, or tylenol?

Thanks in advance!
