Seager, did you actually read the article you linked. It said that ivermectin was inaccessible to the sick people WHO REQUIRE IT TO TREAT AND CURE GUT-WORMS!

Invermectin is best known for its extraordinarily broad spectrum of activity against nematodes, the roundworms that cause a large proportion of the most common neglected diseases on our planet. It is used to treat millions of people at risk of contracting devastating diseases, such as onchocerciasis and lymphatic filariasis, and also plays an important role in the control of intestinal helminth infections.

It's been used to treat malaria and river blindness too. It got a noble prize in 2015.

But not virus infection.

 

[y2kmark]

I have heard anecdotal stories about feed supply stores now restricting sales of Ivermectin to those who can provide proof being directly involved in agricultural activities. Basically some feed supply stores are worried about liability.

Just about liability? Couldn't be about wanting to save lives?...

No it didn't.

KENILWORTH, N.J., Feb. 4, 2021 – Merck (NYSE: MRK), known as MSD outside the United States and Canada, today affirmed its position regarding use of ivermectin during the COVID-19 pandemic. Company scientists continue to carefully examine the findings of all available and emerging studies of ivermectin for the treatment of COVID-19 for evidence of efficacy and safety. It is important to note that, to-date, our analysis has identified:

• No scientific basis for a potential therapeutic effect against COVID-19 from pre-clinical studies;
• No meaningful evidence for clinical activity or clinical efficacy in patients with COVID-19 disease, and;
• A concerning lack of safety data in the majority of studies.

We do not believe that the data available support the safety and efficacy of ivermectin beyond the doses and populations indicated in the regulatory agency-approved prescribing information.

This is the current position of Merck.

What kind of donkey-brained idiot would read that and think, “What does the manufacturer know.”

Just out of curiosity were the people here a few years backing trying to treat STI's with stuff bought at feed supply stores were they using Ivermectin? I know the mods here took down those posts ages ago.

Merck is clearly worried about liability and its reputation in the Pharma community.

If "Big Pharma" were the entirely evil people fantasized in the conspiracy theory drivel of anti vaxxers, it would be saying that ivermectin is 100% sure to cure your COVID. (Not saying that Big P aren't profit-oriented, but professional standing, reputation and not getting sued are important too!)

And the fucking word is "Nobel".

Merck also makes molnupiravir, so there may be some financial interest in putting all their COVID-treatment eggs in that basket.

That said, it doesn’t make much sense that Merck would maintain such a strong stance against the usefulness of its own product if they felt it had any clinical value.

I’m still not sure I’ve read anything from a reliable source that suggests that the amount of ivermectin needed to theoretically be effective would be toxic to a human.

I don't think anyone is saying that anyone has died from imbibing ivermectin. Just become quite sick and been hospitalized.

I recall there being controversy on the approved dosages for testing being too low for desired effects, but FDA wouldn’t allow for more because of the inevitable toxicity at the desired dosage.

But, with a million or so articles related to sheeple ingesting equine dewormer coming up first, I’m not bothering to wade through it.

I feel like if you’re home with COVID and feel like shit and want to take anti-parasite meds, have fun you baahhhhd-ass. I’ve been on a similar drug after a malaria scare, and it’s not pleasant. Hopefully the damage to your liver will have been worth it.

But chances are, if Delta gets you and you end up in the hospital, you won’t have a lot of agency in-terms of treatment method.

Yes! Clearly it can cure all viruses and STIs!
it’s time to allow discussions about bareback sex since viruses are not a problem anymore!

The much quoted in vitro study was this one:
https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0166354220302011

And the concentration used to achieve that effect in that study was 5 μM which is 35x higher than the dosage approved by FDA for parasitic treatment.

Shit. You’re right.

That’s the one I didn’t look for but mentioned in my previous post.

I think the word I meant to type was “fatal,” not “toxic.” But still, I stand connected.

You gave it up too easy. I wanted to get him a little more wound up.
