this study here doesn't actually say ivermectin helps. It has many paragraphs showing that ivermectin helps prevent covid if given right away when someone first catches it, that was already known. The conclusion is very vague and unscientific, saying that it "may" help with long haul. What di their study actually show though?

The summary at the beginning says: "In them, a simple post-COVID treatment with ivermectin (IVM) was applied, thus provoking a faster reduction of manifestations."

it seems to say it reduces hospital stays but long haulers don't need to go to the hospital, just get rid of the fatigue, brainfog, etc.

Yes exactly. The medium-level side effects are basically swept under the rug and yet the IVM seems to help with those for many people. The fact the media is downplaying this drug is so criminal, especially since it has far less side effects than the vaccine... I feel like we live in the god damn USSR or something

I do like all these studies, the FDA always says there is little evidence it helps against covid yet if you google it you find tons of studies. This conspiracy could be as simple as them wanting us to get vaccines so pfizer makes more money.

There was a youtuber I watched who had long haul, run dmc, he said he took ivermectin and it helped but then after he stopped taking it the negative symtoms came back, and it wasn't a long term solution to take ivermectin forever because it caused stomach problems.

Oh the reason they're pretending ivermectin doesn't exist is without a doubt because the EUA for the mRNA vaccines requires there be "no other available treatments for covid" so literally tens of BILLIONS of dollars, and this whole vaccine rollout in the US, depends on ivermectin not being recognized as a treatment for covid. That's undoubtedly why the pharma companies are bribing the media to play along with this farce.

Interesting about run dmc, thanks for that info. The great thing about ivermectin is you only have to try it once. If it works it works, if it doesn't it doesn't. The only way it can really harm you is if you take something like 10x the recommended dosage, or is taken far too often then it can cause liver damage. It's really only necessary once every 6 months at the most, at least for parasite removal. It's still not clear if the mechanism that lets ivermectin help with covid is related to parasites or not. My money is on toxoplasmosis being a comorbidity that ivm removes, but it's just a hunch. It could very well have a non-parasitic mechanism that helps with covid

That could be. People with covid sometimes have wildly different symptoms. That could because they have different causes. Covid might weaken the immune system, allowing things like toxicplasmosis to run wild. I think other times it is caused by mold like in india, or epstein barr, which I think is the cause of long haul. And it might often be a mix of all sorts of different things.

You're right, it could be a constellation of comorbidities causing various versions of "long covid".

I was googling the mechanisms of ivm and I found this about covid specifically:

To get into the nucleus the viral proteins need to bind a cargo transporter which lets them in. Ivermectin can block the cargo transporter, so the viral proteins can't get into the nucleus. This is how the scientists believe Ivermectin works against SARS-CoV-2 virus.

I suspect also that it may be similar to antibiotics, where if they are given out too much people then bacteria become resistant to it, so doctors under orders from the elites are loath to prescribe it, making some people that need it have to live thru pain and suffering when the solution could be given to them.

It could be, but I've never seen anyone say anything like that before
