Sure, whether it's bleach or HCQ or ivermectin, none of it should be "promoted" or "claimed" as a cure for Covid until it's actually been proven as such by credible institutions and scientists.

"Credible"? Defined by whom?... the mainstream left-leaning media?, the Biden admin?, you?
You can try to keep yourself healthy and immune system stronger a whole range of perfectly appropriate ways, but spreading false hope of a miracle cure is indeed quite dangerous in the ways I've previously described, including being a drag on the public choosing to do things that actually do work, like getting vaccinated and various aspects of social distancing.
If IVM had been accurately and truthfully explained, the exploiters could not have created the "either/or" situation that you're belaboring. Vaccines and therapeutics work together but for different situations, not to the exclusion of the other.
Ivermectin is not "snake oil" when applied to de-worming. It has valid uses.
Bleach is good for cleaning too. Valid use.
"de-worming" is both pejorative and a jerk's remark. IVM's labeled use for humans is an anti-parasitic (of course you know that).
But when claimed to be a cure for Covid, these are "snake oil" claims.

Re: All things CoronaVirus
Ivermectin usage for COVID-19 is not recommended by most of the medical establishment simply because there is not enough evidence that it actually works better than a placebo. There are SOME studies, AFAIK mostly flawed in some way, that show a positive effect, but others which do not.
So if the risk of using (and an antiparasitic agent definitely has risks) is greater than the benefit, why choose it?

Re: All things CoronaVirus
It is almost always a good idea to look really hard at any claim bases on testimonials - you can always find someone that makes claims like this but this in no way actually means (in this case) that IVM was responsible for any particular guy (or gal) getting better...Typical Lax Dad wrote: ↑Wed Sep 08, 2021 10:13 amI mentioned it may not be anymore effective than placebo a couple of weeks ago.

re infection is rare.....but force covid survivors to take a needle, because you listen to the right source?
The FACT that you even place value on right, or wrong, when it comes to science....is strange.
natural immunity is the gold standard. Anyone, based on the science, feels that covid survivors are threat to the community, un vaxxed, is clearly not listening to sources of any kind.

the fcccc? doc posted several days ago listed a good many studies that aren't randomized, double blinded, mostly from latin america. a number of studies were large, with some outsized (50-75%) results.
the principle trial double blind/randomized should be robust and have results i think? in months, not years. also an arm for favipiravir. they're setting a 14 day limit from test/symptoms and a baseline for symptoms/at risk. personally if we're trying out these anti-inflammatories, anti-virals for early treatment options i wish they'd do something much closer to symptoms/test and all manner of candidates. can't have everything. many ivm treatment studies or protocols being used have more of a whole kit of prescribed treatments, though i have no idea if they're supposed to work in concert to amplify any possible gain.
any event, if there is any outsized gain for ivm or favipiravir "early", it should? show with the first larger trial.
given we've not found an effective early/anti-viral yet proven to our standards, it's like cov-2 has gotten the better of those mechanisms. slippery.
the market is hopping for ivm. supposedly ~$ 0.12 to make in india at least, and going for $500-800 in some countries (couple bucks in bangladesh). and in 2020, india production jumped 4 1/2 fold. wonder what 2021 will be.

Re: All things CoronaVirus
Not to defend or justify but production cost of all Medication that doesn’t include R&D expenses is just not useful. I prefer the European model of capitalizing R and expensing D but in the US we put both into a capital expenditure and the intangible asset bucket to be amortized over the life the the drug.wgdsr wrote: ↑Wed Sep 08, 2021 11:41 amit is being used in africa. and in latin america. and in india. probably a good deal others. based on what, i'm not rabbit holing that.RedFromMI wrote: ↑Wed Sep 08, 2021 10:11 am Ivermectin usage for COVID-19 is not recommended by most of the medical establishment simply because there is not enough evidence that it actually works better than a placebo. There are SOME studies, AFAIK mostly flawed in some way, that show a positive effect, but others which do not.
So if the risk of using (and an antiparasitic agent definitely has risks) is greater than the benefit, why choose it?

Now I love those cowboys, I love their gold
Love my uncle, God rest his soul
Taught me good, Lord, taught me all I know
Taught me so well, that I grabbed that gold
I left his dead ass there by the side of the road, yeah

Re: All things CoronaVirus
ya, i'm not sure how those treatment courses were priced overseas. it is a 40 year old drug of course now in generic, and if you can get an rx it looks like $10-25 stateside:Farfromgeneva wrote: ↑Wed Sep 08, 2021 11:59 amNot to defend or justify but production cost of all Medication that doesn’t include R&D expenses is just not useful.
