"There are a number of limitations with this review. Several of the studies contributing data did not provide full descriptions of methods, so assessing risk of bias was challenging. Where descriptions of study methods were sparse or unclear, we attempted to contact authors to clarify methods, but lack of information led us to downgrade findings in several instances. Overall interpretation of findings was hampered due to variability in the participants recruited, treatment regimen, and the care offered to those in control groups. We have tried to take this variation into account through subgroup and sensitivity analyses. Nevertheless, dosing and treatment regimens and the use of ivermectin with other components of “standard care” require further research."
This would explain why the FDA hasn't approved Ivermectin for use against COVID. It's why doctors aren't prescribing it and people in Mississippi have to get it from animal pharmacies.
Yep, I read the study. Are you familiar with off label prescriptions, a common practice where prescription drugs are prescribed for uses not approved by the FDA ? Would it shock you to know this is a common practice to meet medical needs? Would it shock you to know LOTS of doctors around the world are prescribing Ivermectin? You know WHO doesn't "approve" drugs any more than CDC does, right?
Did you read what you posted? Did you really take "Nevertheless, dosing and treatment regimens and the use of ivermectin with other components of “standard care” require further research." and turn that into "this is why the FDA hasn't approved Ivermectin?" Because it needs further research? Curious, did you take one of the vaccines that was not fully approved but allowed to be used under an emergency authority?
