Ivermectin

[Trevor]

I have heard negative viewpoints on Ivermectin in Thaiger News , Bangkok Post and Chaingmai University . There has been nothing to support these claims that Ivermectin is ineffective !!! , Ivermectin is an antiviral and anti inflationary safe drug . So , how are these claims being supported ???

Good question. Mainly because every single cheap therapeutic gets slagged off immediately and certain people want to continue the ridiculous overreaction and fear mongering. 

Doctors using these techniques get immediate bans and are silenced. 

 

The sheep fear life returning to normal.

Media sites are safer following mainstream consensus than going out on a limb. Also consider Thailand's rather draconian "fake news" laws and the position of its FDA.

The Ministry of Public Health's August 4, 2021 "Guidelines on clinical practice, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of healthcare-associated infection for COVID-19" says "Preliminary data of in vitro study showed that ivermectin has synergistic effect with favipiravir, but no clinical trial data are available. There are some published clinical trials of ivermectin, and some are on-going studies. therefore, no further recommendation for ivermectin at this time." (See attached.)

Thanks for posting this.  And good to see that they do not slash ivermectin, but are simply stating that there are currently not enough studies yet to recommend it. 

They quite rightly mentioned that there are synergistic effects with other covid-remedies/drugs.  The problem being that for approval they only consider studies that exclusively use ivermectin, while a multi-remedial treatment is recommended in the available covid-protocols.

Most of the studies are hoaxes, which complicates proper assessment of the drug. One highly promoted hoax study was being spread around on this forum too, and although debunking it was trivial, it took a fierce battle to get the antivaxxers silenced for a brief moment.

I guess this thread will be your next excuse for starting the same shit all over again. @Trevor only has a single post, meaning that this account was specifically registered for promoting the same old antivaccination quackery. I presume he's an alternate account of another sockpuppet more familiar to us.
