"PREFACE:"
Much of this most likely has already been shared. This is a revalation story of sorts my family literally just went through, along with some direct answers, no deep linking, no memes. trying for plain english.
"BACKGROUND:"
So this stems from my family all taking Ivermectin. Long story short: I got the flu and strep, shared it with the family. We were having a rough go of it when a farmer friend suggested we get some Ivermectin and try that, their entire extended family uses it about once every quarter as a preventative (blue liquid, they buy by the gallon for their animals) So we tried it yesterday, metered doses, rubbed on skin.
We've all already shown dramatic improvement.
So my Dad (also took it) had a doctor's appt. today and asked the Doc what about Ivermectin as a treatment/preventative. The doctor reemed him out a new one, saying its for parasites and why on earth would you do that, and that's the stupidest thing he's ever heard, etc.
Now, I'm Not telling you this to rag on my dad. He's scared. He doesn't know what to believe. He believes/trusts us, but he's so used to trusting doctors and experts, and all the dis-info being shoved out (also used to my side of the family being "conspiracy theorists" for decades), I understand it would be difficult to shift gears and start believing all the cockamamie stuff we're saying is true, even when you can see it with your own eyes. Long story short, he's coming around, but hard evidence helps.
My mom called me to tell me about the visit. She was worried because my dad has been toying with the idea of getting the jab (doctors say sure, get it, everyone in his family says DON'T). So you have to understand my mom.
"Mom: Dr. Pede (no acct yet, totally red pilled), was an RN, sociologist, psychologist, and statistical analyst, with 50+ years experience in those fields. (yeah, she's old, and also won't read this so i can say it.)"
She asked me to find some resources on Ivermectin, specifically any case studies, peer review studies, etc that shows it is helpful. Both of them were looking online and most of what they found was bubkis, nothing burger, or media lies.

A HUGE THANK YOU TO PEDE 20-guage for the resource compilation!

.
This had a lot of what was needed, specifically:
Studies (over 1000, several peer reviewed):

.
Then my dad, figuring out how to search for it, found this:
Ivermectin, being an anti-parasitic drug, not only fights parasites, but contains an element which inhibits replication in both viruses and parasites:
From Abstract: "We surmise that this may be connected to ivermectin's ability to inhibit SARS-CoV-2 replication, which likely leads to lower infection rates. "

-Published NIH, Nov 28, 2020
.
"SUMMARY (TL;DR):"
From many places in Africa to most of India, Covid flu infection rates are near 0% and death rates are effectively 0% due largely in part to "the use of replication inhibitors, such as Ivermectin."
New revalation? maybe not for most, but I've never heard it put this way before, and the studies are SOOO dry and boring! Dr. Pede eats those things for breakfast, so it was great to have a summary put in easy to understand language.
CARRY ON, SPREAD THE WORD.
