      There is nuance in the #ivermectin meta-analysis, read the manuscript: "Additional ongoing RCTs should be completed in order to update our analyses. In the meanwhile, IVM is not a viable option to treat COVID-19 patients, and only should be used within clinical trials context."https://twitter.com/GermHunterMD/status/1409599368110383104 …

      “In comparison to standard of care or placebo, #ivermectin did not reduce all-cause mortality, length of stay or viral clearance in RCTs in COVID-19 patients with mostly mild disease... Ivermectin is not a viable option to treat COVID-19 patients.” https://academic.oup.com/cid/advance-article/doi/10.1093/cid/ciab591/6310839#.YNomw8cj-yQ.twitter … pic.twitter.com/LsLqYHgoHS

      Agreed, as I said for the preprint of this study I think the biggest take home is that the evidence is rated as low/very low quality

          The number of people here in a LDC which have been infected by the bad studies going around is ridiculous. Unable to judge data or study quality, it works perfectly to support the big pharma/govt conspiracy message.

          I don’t think this is the same SRMA as the pre-print you are referring to is it?

          Unless I'm getting very confused this study was preprinted a couple of months ago?
