Ivermectin acts on glutamate chloride ion channels. It is not a protease inhibitor. And even if it were (which it is not), something that inhibits one protease doesn't work on other proteases. We can't use HIV protease inhibitors to fight covid, for example.

- ufo 5y ago"in silico" doesn't mean that is actually real. We are almost getting into 2022 now and there is ample evidence from prospective double-blind studies proving that Ivermectin doesn't work against covid. And here in Brazil we have a pile of corpses showing what happens when the government tries to use innefective drugs as the main answer to the pandemic.
