From the Spartacus Letter. Wow.<p>"India went against the instructions of the WHO and mandated the prophylactic usage of Ivermectin. They have almost completely eradicated COVID-19. The Indian Bar Association of Mumbai has brought criminal charges against WHO Chief Scientist Dr. Soumya Swaminathan for recommending against the use of Ivermectin."
The India claim are way off. First they only used the drug in mild cases. Second they also used a cocktail of other anti viral drugs in the more severe cases. Third the report was put out about the use in India and they found that 95% of mild cases were treated effective with the drug and 93% were also treated effective with a placebo. So medically it means the use of a sugar pill was just as effective as the drug.
No discussion about this? Was hoping for someone to try debunk this, at least.<p>It's too hard getting sound opinions. Most of the internet is a shit show. Hacker News usually comes through. Covid topics are the hardest to find proper discussion on. There's not even a good tl;dr. Officially published stuff directed at the general population is too brief. These sources don't educate, they only try to build trust. With covid being a risky topic, I understand why these sources are extremely focused on "safe" facts, while topics that could be taken wrongly are omitted. I think I'm ready to read about these topics, but accredited sources only leave you with thousands of papers as the only alternative to the general population stuff. I don't have a relevant background and therefore lack the necessary skills to understand these papers. This only leaves me with unaccredited sources like the letter posted here. Health's the most important thing one has, and I want to protect it as best as I can. I think there's no proper discussion regarding covid and vaccines anywhere on the internet. I would like to be proven wrong though.
interesting read<p>do think that it would be better the leave out the mention of BCI and criminal accusations.<p>Perhaps an edited version with just the first two paragraphs and the citations should be made in text
