Yeah, um nar, look again, the spike was across the board all regions. Higher in the south, yes, but try not to concentrate on shiny objects. Is he not president of the whole US? or just some parts lol...

Maybe we have different versions of a spike from your own graph.  We have mountains here, we don't call them hills.

But keep running with this narrative about a devastating spike since July when we are down from 4000/day to about 1000/day deaths since Jan 16th.  You can't even take that as a positive?

And from your own article:  See where vaccination is an important feature of herd immunity?  And no mention of the livestock ant-parasitic symptom reducer?

In the U.S., someone who is vaccinated has less than 1/10th the risk of getting seriously ill as someone who is not. 

This level of protection against severe disease makes it possible that—even if we can’t eliminate transmission of the coronavirus soon—we can get to a level of population immunity where COVID’s effects can be manageable. For example, by achieving high levels of vaccination before the summer of 2021, countries like Germany, Spain, and Canada have kept their COVID-related death rates much lower than what we have seen in the U.S.—even though they have seen surges in cases like those seen in the U.S. COVID mortality rates in these countries are similar to the death rates from suicide or motor vehicle crashes in the U.S. Each of these deaths is a tragedy, but this comparison suggests that, if we can increase vaccination levels, we can eventually get COVID-19 to a level where its effects are like those of other major public health concerns in this country.

Never mind. Found it here:

Before you hitch your wagon to that horse, you may want to read this:

https://www.politifact.com/article/2021/jun/30/what-know-about-pro-ivermectin-groups-study-toutin/

It references that study directly.

And you may want to have a look at this:

https://www.sciencealert.com/meta-studies-like-those-on-ivermectin-promote-poorly-done-research-scientists-argue

Also note that what you are referencing is a meta-review not an actual clinical trial. You may want to look up what a meta-review is so you know the difference.

If you still think the American Therapeutics meta-review is legit, then here's another review that says the exact opposite:

https://academic.oup.com/cid/advance-article/doi/10.1093/cid/ciab591/6310839?searchresult=1

If you don't feel like reading all of that, the bottom line is that Ivermectin, while useful in many other applications, is not an approved treatment for Covid. There is a ton of misleading and flat out false information out there, so be careful when citing these kinds of "studies."

• There is insufficient evidence for the COVID-19 Treatment Guidelines Panel (the Panel) to recommend either for or against the use of ivermectin for the treatment of COVID-19. Results from adequately powered, well-designed, and well-conducted clinical trials are needed to provide more specific, evidence-based guidance on the role of ivermectin in the treatment of COVID-19.

What do you say Dr Sol, Dr Round, shouldn't we study its use further? I haven't seen any study ruling it out since. I could be wrong. It seems real professionals in the field recommend further study, and thats what's happening, apparently against your best judgement.

I get that you're so personally invested against its use, you've made complete jackasses out of yourselves in your vocal opposition to stuff you know nothing about.

Talk about misinformation.

I'm not AGAINST it's use, I am against the ADVOCATING it's use when it has zero proven benefit and a couple of harmful potential side effects.

^ is this the study you are citing? The other cites you posted were for Ivermectin use in treating parasitic infections and malaria. Neither of those studies mention Covid.

The American Therapeutics study above, as I have already discussed, has been shown to be flawed if not completely discredited.

I'm not against studying alternative treatments for Covid, that's always a good idea, but at this time there is little evidence showing that Ivermectin is even close to being effective as a Covid treatment. Until a real clinical trial is run, I'd be very suspicious.

^ is this the study you are citing? The other cites you posted were for Ivermectin use in treating parasitic infections and malaria. Neither of those studies mention Covid.

The American Therapeutics study above, as I have already discussed, has been shown to be flawed if not completely discredited.

I'm not against studying alternative treatments for Covid, that's always a good idea, but at this time there is little evidence showing that Ivermectin is even close to being effective as a Covid treatment. Until a real clinical trial is run, I'd be very suspicious.

 

Conclusion

Two doses of oral ivermectin (300 μg/kg/dose given 72 hours apart) as chemoprophylaxis among HCWs reduced the risk of COVID-19 infection by 83% in the following month. Safe, effective, and low-cost chemoprophylaxis has relevance in the containment of pandemic alongside vaccine.

Dumb, no one is shouting down research. We're just laughing at you.

In fact, if you look at the AMA release, it specifically exempts clinical trials. That's not shouting down research. And these trials aren't regulated by our communist government. Maybe Liberty University has a trial you can join. Hell, you could even do your own research.

Yeah, it’s not like we are blocking the entrances of tractor supply stores to prevent people from seeking the medical services they choose.

ok bullshitter.

Is that like when you called me a "bullshitter" for saying that you're exactly the kind of RWNJ pinhead who posts anti-vax stuff and promotes ivermectin?

And here we are.

Bingo. I think people who choose to not get vaccinated but instead take Ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine should run right down to the feed store and buy all they want.

I disagree with your assertion that there is little evidence, based on what Ive read and posted, but we just have to disagree, no need for hurling insults.

That's cool with me. We can disagree. No worries. But my money is on a vaccine that's 98% effective rather than something that is 9% better than nothing (maybe).

I don't recall ever hurling an insult at you in this thread or any other thread. Did I?
