I "don't have a dog in this hunt," because I have no idea if ivermectin is useful or not. This article simply goes along with so many other findings that have shown that much peer-reviewed research is either fraudulent or poorly done, and thus unreliable. The original article is at: https://www.theatlantic.com/science/archive/2021/10/ivermectin-research-problems/620473/

We don’t know because they won’t fund a proper randomized controlled study. But there is plenty of evidence of benefit and near zero evidence of harm with IVM.

Of all Trump did I think his biggest mistake was not directing some of the Warp Speed money to study IVM and HCQ type regimens. It wouldn’t have taken much especially in Spring of 2020 when there were millions of potential subjects to recruit.

I read a small study where they took people put into quarantine hotels after arrival at an airport. It was small but those who received IVM cleared the virus 2.5x faster than those who did not. A study like that done on a larger scale would have been cheap and fast to conduct. And if proven, studied further. But as we know, there is no profit in that drug thus a massive push by vested interests to discredit it. The authors of this piece need to look into that bias too.

Well it’s not that the “science is bad”, more that this is Not. Actual. Science.

India gave us the largest RCT in the world, albeit, not double blind. The results? It works.

Fake test and fake report were not science...

‘”Follow the science” doesn’t work when the science is this bad’

“Follow the science” doesn’t work when it doesn’t fit the Democrats’ narrative.

There, fixed it

Since the author claims to be so diligent in investigating studies, perhaps he and his crew should have applied these same efforts and standards to the Pfizer studies on their own mRNA drug. Doesn’t that warrant even more attention since it is being forced on millions more people than ivermectin?

You could drive a semi through the holes in that piece of “research”. It’s absolute crap.

James Heathers - " "Follow the science" doesn't work when the science is this bad" is absolutely NOT science.

What it is is pure political propaganda and a political lie.

General rule of thumb. If it appears in "Hot Air" it's probably garbage.

"Hot Air" is a bunch of never Trump @$$holes.

CDC recommends COVID vaccines because of few adverse effects reported.
OSHA explicitly is disinterested in adverse effects of mandated vaccines.
This does not add up to good science.

all you gotta do is watch people’s actions...

our government’s actions and double standards prove the kung flu is a scam...

[norwaypinesavage]

All claims to “follow the science” are nothing but political fakes. I don’t “follow” any science, I try to follow the data. This article has zero data. It’s worthless.
