New Peer-Reviewed Study Shows Ivermectin ‘Significantly’ Reduces COVID Infections, Hospitalization, and Mortality Rates

New Peer-Reviewed Study Shows Ivermectin ‘Significantly’ Reduces COVID Infections, Hospitalization, and Mortality Rates

A newly released study from Brazil of over 150 thousand subjects found that regular prophylactic use of ivermectin “was associated with significantly reduced COVID-19 infection, hospitalization, and mortality rates.”

The largest ivermectin study to date was conducted in Itajaí, Brazil, between July 2020 and December 2020. It recently passed rigorous peer-review and was published this week, Dr. Pierre Kory noted on Twitter.

Background: Ivermectin has demonstrated different mechanisms of action that potentially protect from both coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection and COVID-19-related comorbidities. Based on the studies suggesting efficacy in prophylaxis combined with the known safety profile of ivermectin, a citywide prevention program using ivermectin for COVID-19 was implemented in Itajaí, a southern city in Brazil in the state of Santa Catarina. The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of regular ivermectin use on subsequent COVID-19 infection and mortality rates.

Researchers invited the entire population of Itajaí to enroll in the program and compiled baseline, personal, demographic, and medical information on participants.

In the absence of contraindications, ivermectin was offered as an optional treatment to be taken for two consecutive days every 15 days at a dose of 0.2 mg/kg/day. In cases where a participating citizen of Itajaí became ill with COVID-19, they were recommended not to use ivermectin or any other medication in early outpatient treatment. Clinical outcomes of infection, hospitalization, and death were automatically reported and entered into the registry in real time. Study analysis consisted of comparing ivermectin users with non-users using cohorts of infected patients propensity score-matched by age, sex, and comorbidities. COVID-19 infection and mortality rates were analyzed with and without the use of propensity score matching (PSM).

The results showed a 6.6 percent infection rate for non-users of ivermectin, and a 3.7 percent infection rate for regular users of the drug, a 44 percent reduction in the COVID-19 infection rate.

There was also a 56 percent reduction in the hospitalization rate for ivermectin users (44 versus 99 hospitalizations).

The most striking result was the difference in the mortality rate. Of the subjects who were infected, those who regularly used ivermectin had a 70 percent reduction in COVID-19 mortality.

The study is just one of dozens that shows ivermectin is an effective treatment for COVID. Dr. Kory, one of the drugs biggest advocates expressed frustration with the medical establishment’s refusal to approve early treatments for people suffering with COVID.

“People are dying because they’re being deprived of highly effective, cheap, widely available drugs that do not present as obscene profits to the pharmaceutical companies,” Kory said on Fox News earlier this month.

The corporate media meanwhile still refuses to challenge the medical establishment’s false narrative on early treatments, even when proven wrong by studies like this one. “Crickets from across the world’s major media. The global war on repurposed drugs marches on,” Kory Tweeted.

Kory is one of 33 guest speakers—including Doctors Peter McCullough, Robert Malone, Paul Marik, and Ryan Cole—who will participate in a “Defeat the Mandates” rally in Washington DC on January 23.

Mexico is giving its citizens a free Covid-19 kit of medicines. Too bad this isn’t happening in the UK and the USA. I don’t read Spanish but I can figure these words out.

The FR branch covidian vax cadre will be here soon enough to cherry pick this apart. It was not approved by their patron saint Fauci and the CDC, therefore it’s irrelevant to the church of science.

Lots of people spontaneously recover. The ivermectin may or may not have helped.

It’s an interesting study but I don’t see the reference. Anyone have the publication reference. Which journal and the citation. I would like to read the actual publication.

That's because they are lying and making it up!

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&

The only reference you and all your co-conspirators need to look at is the deaths that have taken place in Uttar Pradesh,
India since they started bringing Ivermectin right to the door of those who showed any symptoms.

Population 204 million

Only 23,000 deaths.

Single digit death rate since this summer.

The Ivermectin blackout has been one of the most twisted, evil conspiracies in all of history. And 99% of the medical community, all beholden to big pharma, have willingly participated in it.

No. This is supposedly peer reviewed and published. I would actually like to see the reference. Apparently you don’t have it.

I am being honest and straight forward. This is represented to be peer reviewed. I would really like to read the paper. I looked for the reference and may have missed it. I am sincerely asking for the reference.

Not to rain on your parade, but...

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%:

Uttar Pradesh, India.

Population 204 million.

23,000 covid deaths and single digit death rate since this past summer. I think it’s pretty safe to say that they are not going to listen to any studies but their own where bringing Ivermectin right to the door of those whose first show signs of covid has turned out pretty damn well.
