False. We didn’t have a vaccine available until early 2021. People were scrambling to find a therapeutic way to treat Covid and there was anecdotal evidence that hcq and ivermectin might work.

Yes, they turned out to be ineffective but the reaction against them was mindblowingly biased and filled with propaganda.
