This guy [0] made a detailed good case that ivermectin shows positive results only in studies done in parts of the world where intestinal worms are very common, likely because intestinal worms and their interactions with the microbiome cause known problems for the immune system, including when it needs to fight a covid infection.
So if you have intestinal worms, the data supports that idea that ivermectin helps with covid infections, also. If you don't have worms it doesn't.
Maybe this is too nuanced for the mainstream media.
