BTW the whole “horse medicine”
angle on this is a dramatization. Ampicillin is also a horse medicine, if you buy it from a veterinary supply house. Both medicines are also for humans, if obtained through the right channels.
The scientists who developed Ivermectin were given the Nobel prize for it. For humans. The point here is not to say that proves it works for COVID. The point is just to note that calling it “horse medicine” is hyperbolic.

- eesmith 5y agoWhile you meant it as a joke, your link comments that H2O "is a known causative component in many thousands of deaths" each year. This low-balls the actual numbers. Worldwide, about 300K people die of drowning - https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/drowning-deaths-by-age-group?country=~OWID_WRL https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/drowning-deaths-by-age-gr... . "Exposure (heat and cold)" is another ~50K - https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/annual-number-of-deaths-by-cause?country=~OWID_WRL https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/annual-number-of-deaths-b... . By comparison: "As of Jun 10, 1,884,146 people have died of COVID-19 in 2021, compared with the 1,880,510 in 2020." - https://www.cidrap.umn.edu/news-perspective/2021/06/global-covid-deaths-2021-have-topped-all-last-years https://www.cidrap.umn.edu/news-perspective/2021/06/global-c... COVID kills at least 5x more than water in the last two years. And those numbers are from only 1/2-way through 2021.
