Either way, people need to stop taking any formulations meant for horses, regardless of any possible benefits.
Ah, GioforPM caught the problem for me.

The thing is that one of the stumbling blocks with Ivermectin has been that nobody will fund further large scale research on a drug that is well out of it's patent phase, and this seems to be the reason why smaller trials have been ignored by the WHO to date.
This could potentially be used to treat severe breakthrough infections and should be fully explored as we adjust to likely living with Covid. I don't think anything with promising results like this should be disqualified if it can possibly lower death rates, especially with so many people who selfishly won't get the vaccine.
