There is a video out there on YouTube where a Dr. Kory testifies before a Senate committee about the resounding success of the drug ivermectin as a preventative and treatment for infection with COVID. Judge for yourself how credible he is. Dr. Kory speaking before a Senate CommitteeIn one controlled study, among 800 health care workers who took ivermectin for prophylaxis of COVID there were no cases developed. In the 400 who did not take ivermectin, 58% contracted the disease. As Dr. Kory states, this is miraculous. He is practically begging for the NIH to review the data. It shows the sad state of the NIH and FDA bureaucracies today that they cannot do anything in response to this data. Indications that ivermectin is effective as preventative and treatment has been around for many months. Ivermectin is primarily used for as an antiparasitic, but its antiviral properties have been known for decades. Billions of doses of the drug have been given for decades. The drug is safe. The drug could be used to totally eliminate the pandemic. In India, everyone who comes down with the symptoms of COVID is given free, by the government, a free kit containing ivermectin, vitamin D3, and zinc. But not here in the USA. Not us. There may be political reasons for the NIH and FDA to ignore ivermectin. For instance, if they admitted it worked now, then it would be clear that they are culpable for the deaths of 100's of thousands because they didn't recommend this months ago. Or people may want the crisis to persist because they want to use it to further the control of government over people and advance a Socialist agenda. "Never let a good crisis go to waste." If this were distributed on campus to all students and faculty, campus cases would soon be virtually eliminated. Wake up, world.

Uhhhhh. Ok. If there is even a shred of evidence this s%#t was effective against SARS, reputable/credible research would be on-going. Conspiracy theories belong on whack-job sites for whack-jobs. It appears the shoe fits. It isn’t helpful here.

It appears the shoe fits. It isn’t helpful here. The authors (doctors and researchers) of the paper that his group has published are reputable and credible. They have jointly published over 2000 sholarly articles in medical journals. Rather than make unbacked ad hominem attacks, perhaps you should look at the data. If the controlled studies that his paper quotes are correct, then they are correctly judging ivermectin's effects regarding COVID as "miraculous". Your reaction is quite typical of those people who place blind trust in the motivations and capabilities of government institutions.

I posted earlier and deleted. I do know that Thickhead has added good info throughout the pandemic and is not an extremist or a pie-in-the-sky guy.

Your post says OSU Could Eliminate COVID On Campus
What should OSU be doing to eliminate COVID on campus? I don’t think they have the authority to prescribe and require medications to students as you propose.

There may be political reasons for the NIH and FDA to ignore ivermectin. Or just scientific ones. Take a look at what NIH says. Looks like solid criticism. I’m not a doctor, but I don’t believe that a drug whose aim is to kill parasites, lice, and heart worm in dogs is going to cure a respiratory virus like Covid 19. But be my guest.

Your reaction is quite typical of those people who place blind trust in the motivations and capabilities of government institutions. I've watched the presentation and looked at the data. I also passed the data by a doctor that I have great respect for. It seems very solid and the presentation was impressive, as are the credentials of the authors. The data for Ivermectin at the very least should trigger an examination of the data by the NIH, FDA and/or CDC. I am afraid that politics and the failure of other repurposed drugs are getting in the way of this and causing many to dismiss it too casually. The NIH last reviewed it based on August data and there as been much data added since that time.

Your post says OSU Could Eliminate COVID On Campus What should OSU be doing to eliminate COVID on campus? I don’t think they have the authority to prescribe and require medications to students as you propose. Is there no longer a student health center where doctors treat student patients? There was such a thing when I was at OSU. Of course, the university can't force doctors to write prescriptions for ivermectin. So you may be correct: OSU itself may be impotent. A controlled study of ivermectin could perhaps be initiated by the university, the results of which would further confirm ivermectin's utility. If some state were to take it upon itself to endorse it for off-label use and distribute ivermectin, then it might finally receive the attention it needs. If people consistently dismiss data the way lebaneaver does because they faithfully assume that the powers that be are our benevolent protectors, then there is little hope of the truth getting out. Again, I encourage people to view the video of Dr. Kory and judge for themselves.

Has nothing to do with the “powers that be.” Good God. I heard enough bull zhit from maga morons about ALLLL the other “miracle drugs.” NONE true. None. Next time you want any credibility from some of us, stop with the “socialist agenda” crap, and how incredible this anti parasite drug IS against Covid. Much of what you stated was based on conspiracies that only exist in the heads of chump’s cult.
