      🧵 I am so so thrilled right now. The pandemic HAS ENDED for much of India. OVER. Cases extremely rare, deaths near zero among hundreds of millions living in states with IVM early treatment programs. Lets $%#!march to DC and end it by Xmas in the U.S (1/2)https://bit.ly/3hy80XF

      Total nonsense. No one has any real estimates of ivermectin use in any Indian state, and the death toll (after correcting for under ascertainment) is HUGE. Most reasonable explanation is that an unmitigated epidemic killed millions, and finally burned itself out

      To make the claim that ivermectin helped with the situation in India, the very first point should be - how many people took ivermectin at each point in time? If you can't answer that with a reasonable degree of accuracy, the rest is speculation
