Oh I’m well aware of that, I think you may have missed my point: ivermectin was banned in many countries due to political reasons. Many doctors reported good outcomes when using it for Covid. We now know that the places that Ivermectin worked best for Covid were places where parasitic infections are more common. So although it wasn’t approved for Covid, it helped reduce harm because it allowed people to fight Covid without fighting a parasite simultaneously. But since it was ‘not known to have antiviral activity’ and trump said it worked well, it was banned. It’s a disgrace that authorities have punished doctors who did the right thing and have now been vindicated. It is absurd to have to wait for an authority to approve something you have good evidence will help your patients. This is why people have lost faith in health institutions. They make terrible decisions like this and then have the audacity to pontificate to the population.
