Ivemectin is not a zinc ionosphore. It's a protease inhibitor(similar to Pifizer's new covid drug). This slows down virus replication. Ivermectin also binds to covid spike proteins and cell ace2 receptors. This slows down the virus entering the cell.
"Ivermectin is one of several ionophores, others including hydroxychloroquine, quercetin, and resveratrol, the latter two available over the counter. These ionophores simply open a cellular door, allowing zinc to enter the cell, where it then interferes with viral replication, providing potential therapeutic benefit in viral and other infections."
