I've been following ivermectin since it was first mentioned as having serious potential for COVID-19 treatment back in April/May 2020. This is because I have used Ivermectin for over 30 years on my herd of horses, and I have a supply on my shelf at all times. Thus, it was fascinating to me.

A couple years ago, a friend sent me this, written in Feb 2011: Ivermectin, ‘Wonder drug’ from Japan: the human use perspective https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3043740/

And there is this article from Feb 2017: Ivermectin: enigmatic multifaceted ‘wonder’ drug continues to surprise and exceed expectations https://www.nature.com/articles/ja201711

Fast forward to now and Ivermectin has substantial studies, research and info backing it. And not "influencers", but brave doctors and scientists.

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.
