Wow
No wonder Latin American countries are using cheap Ivermectin which also has been a success to fight covid19.
And no wonder it's not being researched that much in capitalist countries. It will never be as profitable as these other drugs.
- HarryHirsch 6y agoThey are trying ivermectin because at this stage of the pandemic you can only do drug repurposing, to get anything new from bench into clinic takes five years. Everyone would love to see 3CL protease inhibitors, but they aren't near ready. A quick search turns up over two dozen clinical trials with ivermectin, not all of them taking place in threshold countries. Israel, Spain, Mexico, Singapore are all highly developed countries.
