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

We rely on published, peer-reviewed meta-analysis; we also take into account preclinical data, epidemiological data, as well as obs data, case series and testimonials from MDs. We care a lot about risk / benefit: to us, it's about lives potentially saved. What about you?

That's a non-response with a ridiculous leading question. If you care one whit about lives saved, you'd do your basic due diligence and examine the evidence-base with a critical eye because without good evidence you might literally be killing people
