Depends on how they structure the trials. Ivermectin seems to work best as an immediate intervention, when viral load is still high. But the description sounds like they're only going to give it to people who have had covid for up to 10 days, by which point natural antibodies would have started fighting it already, and ivermectin would be less effective. If they only give them these drugs when the damage is already done, then they're just going to "find" reduced efficacy. The way the article is written, this sounds like the trials are supposed to be something like the FDA rubber stamp: an official document they can wave around to keep pushing their preferred narrative. But maybe that's just bad journalism, and not bad study design. I won't preemptively claim that the studies are designed to fail. However, I'll predict they will find significantly different results from the real world interventions run in multiple countries. Treating Covid patients as they come in, with any means available, is going to be different from people who catch covid then wait a few days to get into a study.

It's best used early in the infection during the viral replication phase, or prophylactically. Prophylactically it has shown an efficacy of approximately 82%, used early in the infection slightly better than 60% at preventing hospitalization and death, later on it loses efficacy and you're better off with steroids to control the cytokine storm, but even used late in the infection it shows some efficacy (~20%) and given that it's dirt cheap and been well trialed for other things and well tolerated it makes no sense NOT to have it in our Covid tool chest.

Poll


If you think the numbers are bad now, this "infrastructure bill" contains a $600 per pig and $2400 per cow tax which is going to run meat and dairy prices through the roof, fuck farmers, fuck consumers, and it also adds a per mile driven car tax nation wide. So no I don't think his approval ratings are going to be better next year.

Interesting cultural insight. How does one stand out in a country of 1.3 billion?

@John Hagen Beyond that, no virus which has an animal reservoir has ever been successfully eliminated by a vaccine, and if it doesn't have an animal reservoir then it was artificially created (of course we know that but convince anyone to actually do something about that)...

Now you know why no one is investigated. They all have their hands in the cookie jar! You might remember James Comey who investigated the Clinton email scandal and the Clinton Foundation, and made the final decision to not recommend prosecution by the DOJ.
It turns out that the Clinton Foundation was audited by the law firm DLA Piper. One of the executives there was in charge of the Clinton Foundation audit.
Who was it? Peter Comey, James Comey’s brother. Peter Comey held an executive position with the Washington law firm that did the audit of the Clinton foundation in 2015. Peter Comey was officially DLA Piper “Senior Director of Real Estate Operations for the Americas,” in 2015 when the Clinton Foundation scandals first broke and Hillary was preparing her Presidential campaign. Not only was DLA Piper, the firm where Comey’s brother worked involved in the audit of the Clinton Foundation, but according to the foundation’s donor records, DLA Piper has given between $50 - 100k to the Foundation It gets even cozier. DLA Piper executive Douglas Emhoff is taking an extended leave of absence from the firm. Who is Douglas Emhoff? He is the husband of KAMALA HARRIS! Just a coincidence? Amazing if it is. You can't make this stuff up! Another example of the DC swamp.”
And it only gets worse. This "Family Tree" will make your head spin . . THE SWAMP IS DEEP!!
