      Ah, ok then I understand. So moralizing aside, we're agreed that based on current best evidence there does not appear to be a mortality benefit for ivermectin for people with COVID-19

      So you do this thing where you try to put words in people's mouths. Don't do it, it's not nice at all and indicates bad faith. For clarity, I have agreed to no such thing. Now that you know you misunderstood my comments, I hope to hear from you an acknowledgement that you did.

      Sure - I thought you were talking about whether ivermectin works or not. I honestly don't care about morals, merely the evidence, so I assumed you were talking about that as well

      Pleasure. So then, morality aside, from an evidentiary perspective the Together trial is the most robust so far. Unless you have a scientific argument, I'm at a loss as to why you would not agree with the findings

      You're still putting words in my mouth.

      No I'm not - you've explicitly stated that your argument is moral. So morals aside, what scientific argument do you have?

      My argument is the argument I have.

      So you have no scientific objection to the results? Therefore, it would be reasonable to say that the results are scientifically accurate surely

      The fact I have not made an argument about something does not mean I validate I may not have looked into it, or not have an opinion. Or, *and this is wild* I may be waiting for a paper to read instead of deck. The fact you validate scientific results from a slide deck is.. odd?

      They've published their protocol online in many places. That being said, it's certainly no odder than you nit-picking stuff based on slides. And ok, so then what are your scientific critiques?
