I know it stings for true believers but this article is probably true. Most of the studies on Ivermectin are not randomized clinical trial (RCT’s)(the same ones that show masks don’t work and no RCT shows masks work).

Of the RCT’s on Ivermectin....majority are pre-print (only 1 in 4 pre-prints survive peer review to get published).

The issues with COVID-19 is that 99.9% survive without any treatment. Thus the “I survived It’s a wonder drug!”

Then explain the numerous doctors who have treated their patients with it?

Go to the beginning of the Thread. A Freeper started the thread asking for additional dosing information for Ivermectin as he already dosed himself and his wife.

Now he and his wife are in the ICU in very serious condition.

The daughter was asked to contact people here by her Mom to ask for prayers.

The daughter’s father is the poster of the thread, “terart”……….

My focus was the prayer request and present situation with couple in the ICU.

All you had to do is lift ONE FINGER and click your mouse or tap your screen and guess what?? Ta Da! You’re at the beginning of the Thread.

Ok thx. I actually did a search under the user name before posting to you, but nothing came up. With my bad eyes, I probably typed it in wrong.

Thank you for your reply and link.

"My question with this is the same as HCQ. Why does it work?"
Hydroxychloroquine is a zinc ionophore that transfers zinc into cells as readily shown by in vitro studies. Zinc in the cells suppresses virus replication as has been long known in treating the common cold. That is why it works.

“and since no one had a particular answer I remained suspicious”

sigh ... the simplest amount of effort yields the answer:

Plus iverectin is a powerful anti-inflamatory, so like HCQ has a dual action against covid ...

Look at the date.

Look at the recent trials.

In Vivo is not the same as in vitro. So what works in a test tube (study cited) may not work in a person.

Which is what the more recent study said.

But as I said, if you use horse paste it probably won’t kill you. But look at the thread I pinged. A FREEPER was self dosing, and is in the ICU.

Ivermectin in COVID-19:

We regard ivermectin as a core medication in the prevention and treatment of COVID-19. For comprehensive information on ivermectin please refer to our Review of the Emerging Evidence Supporting the Use of Ivermectin in the Prophylaxis and Treatment of COVID-19 and the included references.

A more recent paper, Meta-analysis of Randomized Trials of Ivermectin to treat SARS-CoV-2 Infection was accepted for publication July 6, 2021, by Oxford University Press on behalf of the Infectious Diseases Society of America. This study was done by Dr. Andrew Hill and the team that researched ivermectin’s efficacy in COVID-19 treatment for the WHO. The data is overwhelmingly positive and was discussed in detail by Dr. Pierre Kory on the FLCCC’s July 7, 2021, Weekly Update. Another recent paper, Ivermectin for Prevention and Treatment of COVID-19 Infection: A Systematic Review, Meta-analysis, and Trial Sequential Analysis to Inform Clinical Guidelines was published online June 17, 2021, by the American Journal of Therapeutics. It concludes, “Moderate-certainty evidence finds that large reductions in COVID-19 deaths are possible using ivermectin. Using ivermectin early in the clinical course may reduce numbers progressing to severe disease. The apparent safety and low cost suggest that ivermectin is likely to have a significant impact on the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic globally.”

These pages contain the scientific rationale that justifies the use of ivermectin in COVID-19.
