So your point is we shouldn't trust anybody, so we should start taking Ivermectin regularly because they've been taking it in Africa for 34 years?
I think we should use Ivermectin because almost 100% of actual use in real life practice has shown it to be extremely effective. I’ll send you $1,000 if you can find me a doctor that’s used it to treat Covid patients in real world practice that now advises against it. The ONLY places you can find that say there’s not enough research are organizations either directly or indirectly funded by billion dollar drug companies. Yea, no bias there. For the life of me I can’t see why they wouldn’t want a life saving 10 cent pill being used.
There is a peer reviewed study from India that shows it reduces covid infections by 83%. But I guess since they’re not sponsored by Pfizer or the FDA or the CDC I guess their study is invalid. Not enough funding for you?
