Thai researchers to study animal antiparasitic drug for treating Covid-19

[Thaiger]

Thai researchers are studying whether an antiparasitic medication, which is typically used for animals, can be used to treat humans infected with Covid-19. Reports on the new study come after a warning from Thai Food and Drug Administration advising people not to use the drug Ivermectin as it is typically used for veterinary treatment and not for human use, especially for the coronavirus.

Shame on you Thaiger for publishing this!!  I expected more integrity from you.   Ivermectin is a WHO essential medicine delivered 4 billion times to humans and the lead is animal drug???  I will offer 1 million baht to the Thaiger to discuss this on Good Morning Thailand with the author of the article and if he can prove article accuracy and provide evidence of dangers of using this drug then the money is yours...seriously!!   People are dying....this drug can and most lilely will work...i have evidence...if it doesnt work it still is not harmful.  Free money if i am wrong...  dont be corrupted media.

Ivermectin has been a saviour in India and Mexico where no vaccines were available. Unfortunately this drug has been around for 50 years and is FDA approved. At USD15 a box how can big pharma expect to make money from this? Dr Kevin McCairn PHD Neurologist. Prions????

Ivermectin has been used for more than 30 years with more than 3.7 billion doses dispensed in Africa and Central and South America to control neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) [1]

Also see the "Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance" (Prevention & Treatment Protocols for COVID-19) [2], and Dr. Pierre Kory (FLCCC Alliance) testifies to US senate committee about I-MASK+ (incl. Q & A) (Dec 8, 2020; Vimeo) [3]

There is ample evidence that Ivermectin is safe and a life saver.

Of possible interest - In yesterday's thread on Ivermectin I posted how to get it cheap-and-easy in Thailand as your pharmacy might not want to provide it to you without a prescription.
