Well said. I'm very pro-IVM... but this evidence is weak. Especially since a competing hypothesis (an annual infection cycle) provides a viable interpretation of the data
Annual infection cycles have amplitudes. If winter brings a cycle with only a hundred deaths, then ivermectin was well worth it.
Your comment made me read what I wrote again. Now I'm wondering why "data is" always sounds more correct to me even though I think it really should be "data are".
A collective uses a singular verb even though it indicates more than one...such as the choir is rehearsing or my class is gong on a field trip.
I know what you mean! My ears also prefer "data is" despite knowing better.

Agreed.
India is a much better example. States in India that pushed ivermectin saw new cases plummet, while other Indian states without ivermectin use saw new cases skyrocket. The difference between states were orders of magnitude different.
