      there are other antiviral drugs though. ofc they are obsessed with one drug that hasn't been proven effective for covid in humans.

      "In vitro, ivermectin has antiviral effects against several distinct positive-sense single-strand RNA viruses, including SARS-CoV-2. Subsequent studies found that ivermectin could inhibit replication of SARS-CoV-2 in monkey kidney cell culture with an IC50 of 2.2–2.8 μM. Based on this information, however, doses much higher than the maximum approved or safely achievable for use in humans would be required for an antiviral effect"

      So sure, it kind of works, at least on monkey cells in a test tube....and it might work on you if you're willing to fucking poison yourself via mega dosing lol

            I think we can curr more than that in vivo now. Our big stumbling blocks here in america are lack of funds for early care. Kinda the kinda grand mismanagment of public trust that leads to people doing lines of horse goop
