Here's a graph of onset of treatment vs. therapeutic effectiveness: https://c19ivm.org/mr/mr-all-delay.svg https://c19ivm.org/mr/mr-all-delay.svg
Literally linearly from 100% efficacy to 0% efficacy over 7 days from onset of symptoms. Linear, over ~100 studies!
You don't see that kind of statistically profound predictive accuracy often; but when you do, you sit up and take notice.
Furthermore, in various other anti-viral treatments that are considered effective, onset-of-treatment is a critical determinant. Typically, over 24 to 48 hours after onset, treatment is pointless.
Why not consider that important to address (or even mention?) in Ivermectin studies? The mind boggles...
