What crowd uses ivermectin as a baseline drug for treatment? NM I’ll answer that. Pigs. They treat all pigs with ivermectin d/t helminth infections. It happens to have the off label effect of antiviral use. Instead we give them remdesivir and I haven’t noted any difference in the disease path with it. Their lab values that matter and we need to work on decreasing are not. So what do we do? We stop testing those markers. They are no longer standard testing. When I say we don’t have any current inflammatory markers, well the cdc guidance says.... People with high threshold viral load on day 18 are being removed from isolation on day 21 if ventilated. The entire reason we put them in isolation is aerosolizing viral particles. If you break the vent circuit and there are many ways this happens, you just aerosolizing the entire area. So we are doing the exact opposite of the last 17 months. Makes perfect sense to meShe mentioned 1200 person study in Argentina using Ivermectin and uses of Ivermectin in Peru, Mexico and India.
Is that a large enough sample size?
(sarcasm)
If 58% of the 400 get covid on the control group and 0 get it with ivermectin prophylaxis for 800. I think if go with ivermectin.
