Another thing the media seems to be uninterested in.

Not only uninterested.
From the TrialSite News article "Beyond The Roundup | Fact Checking The Fact Checkers: Associated Press VS Ivermectin":
"On December 11, TrialSite News reported on a US Senate hearing at which, among other things, there was testimony urgently calling for more research and an EUA for ivermectin as both a prophylactic against and an early treatment for COVID-19. ...
... One media account we did not address was a December 10 "fact check" by the Associated Press (AP) in collaboration with Facebook titled, "No evidence ivermectin is a miracle drug against COVID-19." In this piece, the AP relies on old protocols and also ignores newer evidence, showing an excessive deference to official edicts over honestly looking at the medical evidence. The AP author doesn't do her homework as is elaborated on below. Based on accumulating data and growing evidence, the case for publicly-funded investigation into ivermectin is compelling. Does AP represent a particular agenda in that particular piece? Does power, politics, and money influence which research gets funded in the midst of the pandemic?"
The Medical and Media industrial complexes at work?
no offense intended but what you report seems a bit sensational and a bit CT [ish] ... researchers and the CDC have examined ivermectin and in fact the National Institute of Health published on this back in August 2020
maybe give it a look and consideration if you've not seen it
regards,
"a bit sensational"I guess that depends on how much you know about ongoing ivermectin research regarding its use in Covid-19 and your perspective.
"CT [ish]"No offense intended [ :-) ], but other than to possibly be needlessly cryptic, I have no idea what that means and I'm sure that I'm not the only one.
Like the NIH reference you posted states, it was "Last Updated: August 27, 2020" where it states "The COVID-19 Treatment Guidelines Panel recommends against the use of ivermectin for the treatment of COVID-19, except in a clinical trial (AIII)."The updated NIH COVID-19 Treatment Guidelines Statement on Ivermectin, (last updated January 14, 2021) (link below) states
"The COVID-19 Treatment Guidelines Panel (the Panel) has determined that currently there are insufficient data 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 for the treatment of COVID-19.
...
In general, the drug is well tolerated. It is currently being evaluated as a potential treatment for COVID-19.
...
Ivermectin demonstrates potential anti-inflammatory properties in some in vitro studies,8,9 properties which have been postulated to be beneficial in the treatment of COVID-19.10
...
Because of these limitations, the Panel cannot draw definitive conclusions about the clinical efficacy or safety 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 for the treatment of COVID-19."Clinical trials continue to be ongoing.
I'm guessing that you didn't see my comment to Dave_K that I posted on January 28, 2021 at 19:46:19.

thanks man ... I'll go with CDC guidelines; it's under study ... fine
it's sold at feed stores, there's been warnings about this since last spring not to self medicate with it
the drug has made the rounds before as a miracle cure for other ills
there's a buzz about it being 'registered' in other countries but that doesn't mean it's for humans no matter what Slovakia does with it
ah well, carry on
regards,
"Is ivermectin safe?
When used for the current indications, at the currently approved doses, ivermectin is a very safe drug. To date, more than three billion treatments have been distributed in the context of the Mectizan Donation Program alone with an excellent safety profile. Most adverse reactions are mild, transitory and associated with parasite death rather than with the drug itself."
There have been a few real bad effects. Note the three billion human doses.

"The FDA issued a warning in April 2020 that ivermectin intended for use in animals should not be used to treat COVID-19 in humans.' end quote

it's a last ditch therapy for elephantitus in humans and handed out in some E. European backwater areas out of desperation but I'll pass

As I suspected, you don't know what you are talking about.
Do not confuse the "ivermectin intended for use in animals" with ivermectin, Stromectol (R), the FDA approved drug. ( https://m-stg.pdr.net/drug-summary/Stromectol-ivermectin-391 )
Per wikipedia:
"Ivermectin is a medication used to treat many types of parasite infestations.[3] In humans, this includes head lice, scabies, river blindness (onchocerciasis), strongyloidiasis, trichuriasis, ascariasis, and lymphatic filariasis.[3][4][5][6] ...
...
Ivermectin was discovered in 1975 and came into medical use in 1981.[10][11] It is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines.[12] Ivermectin is FDA-approved as an antiparasitic agent.[13]"
Knowledge, as well as the internet (sometimes), is your friend.
3.2 million dead so far worldwide and the "real experts" aren't screaming at the top of their lung for everyone in the world to make sure their Vitamin D levels are sufficient. Yeah, their trustworthy.
A: Ivermectin tablets are approved for use in humans for the treatment of some parasitic worms (intestinal strongyloidiasis and onchocerciasis) and ivermectin topical formulations are approved for human use by prescription only for the treatment of external parasites such as headlice and for skin conditions such as rosacea.
Not just a drug for animals. It is reported to have a good safety profile.

... but maybe you should have spent a bit more time on the info I posted. Here is a list of studies and overviews from around the world, many way past August with much more evidence. I'm sure the evidence isn't perfect and maybe after another 10 years of hell the perfect study will come out.

No offence rv but if you look at the publish date of the study Krav posted you will find that it is Jan. 19 in the year 2021. Don't know what CT means.

Yes I am sure it is a conspiracy between a cabal of pedophiles in a pizza parlor and a group of deep state jewish federal judges appointed by Hillary.
What else could explain it?
If art interprets our dreams, the computer executes them in the guise of programs!
And a bunch of other quack treatments that didn't pan out
From the Lancet article published January 19, 2021 "The effect of early treatment with ivermectin on viral load, symptoms and humoral response in patients with non-severe COVID-19: A pilot, double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized clinical trial" (link below):
"Ivermectin inhibits the replication of SARS-CoV-2 in vitro at concentrations not readily achievable with currently approved doses. There is limited evidence to support its clinical use in COVID-19 patients. We conducted a Pilot, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial to evaluate the efficacy of a single dose of ivermectin reduce the transmission of SARS-CoV-2 when administered early after disease onset.
...
This pilot points towards a potential use of ivermectin in COVID-19 which warrants further exploration under larger trials, with clinical outcomes in patients with risk factors or more severe disease. This is of particular importance for settings with limited resources given ivermectin´s low price, broad availability and scalability of manufacturing processes.
...
The positive signal found in this pilot warrants the conduction of larger trials using ivermectin for the early treatment of COVID-19. Such trials should include patients with risk factors for severe disease as well as patients with pneumonia. The potential for a mechanism of action different to direct antiviral effect also opens the door for pre-exposure prophylaxis in high-risk groups."
Ivermectin is FDA-approved with a potential for repurposing.
The jury is still out, but not a "quack treatment".
...at least one state that went in 100% for the hydroxy treatment now has a large stockpile of the drug and no use for it. They want to return it but are having problems getting suppliers to take it back for a refund.
