      Today I decided to look at some of the terrible observational studies on ivermectin that I've mostly ignored, and wow So far, one with Cohen's d of 2, another with d of 2.9 These are just...gibberish

      In one study, every single person in the ivermectin group got better immediately, and every person in the control got much, much worse. In another, 100% of the ivermectin group stayed in hospital for a shorter amount of time than the control

      These studies are just so wildly implausible that it's hard to understand why no one has raised these questions before. Either a single ivermectin pill entirely cures COVID or there's something fishy there

      We've found definite fraud in the RCTs and larger observational trials, but I think it's worth noting that there is a very high probability that there are many more fraudulent studies in the mix as well. We simply do not have time to check every single one

      Would you mind citing those studies? It's sort of strange how you constantly mention them without referring to the authors names.

      How about this - you've got an ivermectin/covid account, why don't YOU got through the evidence-base and identify which of the studies on ivmmeta dot com are reliable and put together a list

          By now we know https://c19early.com/  is awful, just check the other drugs, all of them have benefits for COVID, which is implausible at best. All of them are good from their pov, is not just IVM.
