We were told how dangerous ivermectin and hydrozychloroquine were

Their manufacturers paid the wrong "influencers."

Next they'll tell us drinking urine doesn't work either...

Good chance they would be correct about it too, and people wouldn't argue it.

So we’ve come to the conclusion Covid was mostly a hoax, right?
"He commented more than once that, 'You know, Hitler did some good things, too,'" Kelly recalled to The Times. Kelly said he would usually quash the conversation by saying "nothing (Hitler) did, you could argue, was good," but that Trump would occasionally bring up the topic again.

Ivermectin is potentially dangerous if someone uses a dose intended for use in veterinary medicine.

Both are potentially dangerous is that they aren't effective when used off label as either prevention or a treatment for Covid.

Restrict sales of the veterinary product rather than the human product.

Both are relatively safe when taken as prescribed and have been around for decades. They were a couple of the suggestions before the vaccines were available.
Studies were inconclusive.
For those who caught Covid there was no recommended therapy.

The EUA for the vaccines couldn't be approved if there was available therapy. We didn't know if either were/weren't effective and we didn't know what the vaccine uptake would be.

High quality, randomized controlled trials have shown no evidence of a clinical benefit for ivermectin.

Cool. Sept of 2022.

Here’s another more recently published randomized, placebo-controlled study confirming ivermectin doesn’t work for COVID.  Expect more like this.

Now when will we be getting the scientific reports on gargling with Clorox and installing interior lighting?

So Mn is pro-Ivermectin. Got it.

83% were double vaccinated in this study.
What about studies finished before vaccines were available ?
The pandemic had been with us for about a year before vaccines were becoming widely available.

Ventilators were widely used early and poor results reduced their use. I don't remember public health officials saying early that ventilators should not be used because there were no conclusive studies showing effectiveness.
Steroids were used pre-vaccines, with no prior conclusive studies regarding effectiveness.
Azithromycin was an early hope pre-vaccines, but was shown to be ineffective.

The first year of dealing with the Covid pandemic was trial and error.

And at UW-Madison .......

"The ultimate goal of this work was to help protect the world from future pandemics, and the research was supported with words and funding by two of the most prominent scientists in the United States: Dr. Francis S. Collins, director of the National Institutes of Health, and Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the NIH’s National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases."

You’re grasping at straws. Those early pre-vaccine studies were shown to be methodologically flawed (observational, small, conflict of interest, lack of peer review, etc.).  The meta analyses were garbage in, garbage out. 

The scientific community did come to the consensus that ivermectin should be investigated for treating COVID patients, but  they said to do it right with large, double-blind randomized controlled trials.   So far it doesn’t look good.   The current best evidence shows that ivermectin is unlikely to have a clinically meaningful benefit in the treatment of COVID.

We can break Covid down pretty simply. More Ivermectin. More Fox News. Less Fauci.
