Within a minute of posting it. > there is no connection between hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin You mean a connection like being pushed as a cure for the same disease while lacking any substantial, peer-reviewed data to back it up? I think maybe we have different ideas of how science and the scientific method works. > For what it’s worth, I’m not referring to that paper. So you're not referring to any science at all, then? I'm unable to find any other published literature on the subject.

If you believed in science you’d know that’s a political connection not a scientific one. > I think maybe we have different ideas of how science and the scientific method works. Yes, you are mistaking politics for science. More edits you dishonestly added after my reply: “So you're not referring to any science at all, then? I'm unable to find any other published literature on the subject.”

        Then explain why one was political and the other not? I'll wait.

        It’s unclear what you are asking for. What claim do you think I am making that you want me to explain?
