I could pour bleach on a petri dish and it would also kill cancer cells.

Where are the human trials for a drug that has been around for 5 decades???!!!

The human mind is incredibly susceptible to bias and superstition. Most humans are follower chimps in this regards.

Did you know the term "I have got a cold" referring to a simple upper respiratory tract viral infection; comes from a time when we thought diseases were caused by an imbalance of "humors" "cold, warm etc". It still sticks on.

My point is:
You are talking about anecdotal correlation during a time of mass fear/hysteria.

When I worked emergency during COVID; half my presentations became "I have chest pain and have myocarditis from the vax".

Over the 2 years;
I did not personally diagnose a single myocarditis based on high sensitivity troponins & echocardiogram.

Not to say it didn;t happen. It just was exceedingly rare and not as common as people were led to believe.

Coming back to Ivermectin:

I now have had multiple patients forgo cancer treatment in favor of Ivermectin, only to return months  later with widely metastatic terminal disease.

Medicine isn't a Disney Movie.
There is a reason med school is hard.
Doctors aren't waking up daily thinking about how to hide some miracle drug from their patients.

Frankly;
I find the ongoing perpetuation of Ivermectin disgusting because it will effect our least intelligent and vulnerable disproportionately.

My most recent patient to go down this Ivermectin wormhole is a single mother that is not so smart and is incredibly anxious at baseline.

She doesn't have the brain power to critically analyze data and thus is making decisions based on how somebody makes her "feel".

Her oncologist gives her cold hard facts - makes her feel anxious more.

The online Ivermectin influencer gives her false hope - she takes this instead.

Do you see the issue?
