You tried very hard to ignore the points he was making. > Why should vaccination be the only acceptable way to treat COVID It's not a treatment. Vaccines are prevention. We have treatments. Ivermectin isn't one of them. > In science we need opposing views That sounds so childish. We don't need "views" in science. We need results that people can trust. You have my permission to try and prove ivermectin is effective. So far everyone trying has failed. That's not a view. It's fact. > trying to cure seasonal flu with vaccine is silly It's not. We can get rid of seasonal flu if we try hard enough. > To me it seems like the vaccine fundamentalists are more interested in obedience than science. "vaccine fundamentalists" suggests to me a complete disingenuous argument. We know how to prevent covid. We know how to eradicate covid. We have watched countries do just that. Even if we don't do the things those places do, we can reduce the death count here. But with small-minded attitudes like yours, that simply is never going to happen.

>It's not a treatment. Vaccines are prevention. We have treatments. Ivermectin isn't one of them. I'm not an expert on medicine and I admit I have no idea what I'm talking about but are you trying to make some kind of a point here or are you just arguing about semantics? >You have my permission to try and prove ivermectin is effective. So far everyone trying has failed. No I'm not qualified for that. This is why I gave you a link about COVID nasal sprays that have ivermectin in them and asked whether they're bullshit or not. Enlighten me if you can or don't reply. >It's not. We can get rid of seasonal flu if we try hard enough. I'm too pessimistic to fall for that kind of wishful thinking. >But with small-minded attitudes like yours, that simply is never going to happen. Come on. You don't want me to be open-minded. You want me to be small-minded with you. To align my views with yours. Open-mindedness requires you to accept opposing view points. What even makes me small-minded exactly? I'm not against vaccines and I'm not against ivermectin. I'm merely baffled by the anti-ivermectin narrative and the totalitarian vaccine campaigns that leave no other options except mandatory vaccines. I may be ignorant and I may be wrong but I'm certainly not small-minded.
