> Baffling to see this [natural infection] listed as a way to get covid “under control” Nobody in their right minds thinks that this is the ideal way to get it under control, but it's one of the ways that can contribute to herd immunity. > No placebo controlled RCT has shown this that I’m aware of for ivermectin There are as of today 58 studies, out of which there are 29 RCTs showing Ivermectin is effective. https://ivmmeta.com/ https://ivmmeta.com/ > How would it create herd immunity? Would people have to take ivermectin for the rest of their lives as an alternative to the vaccine? Let's say you need 75% for herd immunity. If you have 25% vaccinated, 25% who have already got the infection, and 25% who are taking Ivermectin once a week, you've reached herd immunity. When the R0 is below 1, it will exponentially reduce infections towards zero within months. With effective early treatments, it doesn't even matter how many people get infected as long as they don't get severely ill.
