“Question: Does adding ivermectin, an inexpensive and widely available antiparasitic drug, to the standard of care reduce the risk of severe disease in patients with COVID-19 and comorbidities?

Findings:  In this open-label randomized clinical trial of high-risk patients with COVID-19 in Malaysia, a 5-day course of oral ivermectin administered during the first week of illness did not reduce the risk of developing severe disease compared with standard of care alone.

Meaning: The study findings do not support the use of ivermectin for patients with COVID-19.”

 

A giant duh that an antiparasitic medicine meant for horses has been found to be ineffective in treating mild to severe covid symptoms. Apparently this corroborates a similar study that was published last June as well. But yay science for doing the ground work and putting this silly idea to rest once and for all.

Been a cuff touple, a puff bupple, a tough couple of years.

And yet half the US population will say it's fake news and keep trying to get it from farmers because politicians and Joe Rogan told them to :vegas:

Something you didn't mention was that the study found that people who took Ivermectin developed an intense urge to gallop, as well as cravings for sugar cubes and apple slices. :unicorn:

Just let the right wing evangelical Christian conspiracy theorists take the horse medication and sh.it their pants and kill themselves tbh... and use scientific funding to do more important research instead :huntyga:

No I'm kidding. It's a good thing that they finally put this to rest!

I'll be myself until they fūcking close the coffin.
