Immediate global Ivermectin use can end pandemic: Scientists
Washington: A peer-reviewed research has claimed that global ivermectin use can end Covid-19 pandemic, as the medicine significantly reduces the risk of contracting the deadly respiratory disease when used regularly. The common antiparasitic ivermectin is being touted as a miracle cure for Covid-19 by doctors and campaigners the world over.
Peer reviewed by medical experts that included three US government senior scientists and published in the American Journal of Therapeutics, the research is the most comprehensive review of the available data taken from clinical, in vitro, animal, and real-world studies. Led by the Front Line Covid-19 Critical Care Alliance (FLCCC), a group of medical and scientific experts reviewed published peer-reviewed studies, manuscripts, expert meta-analyses, and epidemiological analyses of regions with ivermectin distribution efforts all showing that ivermectin is effective prophylaxis and treatment for Covid-19.
"We did the work that the medical authorities failed to do, we conducted
the most comprehensive review of the available data on ivermectin," said
Pierre Kory, MD, president and chief medical officer of the FLCCC. "We applied the gold standard to qualify the data reviewed before
concluding that ivermectin can end this pandemic." A focus of the manuscript was on the 27 controlled trials available in January
2021, 15 of which were randomised controlled trials (RCT's).
Consistent with numerous meta-analyses of ivermectin RCT's since published by
expert panels from the UK, Italy, Spain and Japan, they found large,
statistically significant reduction in mortality, time to recovery and viral
clearance in Covid-19 patients treated with ivermectin. "Our latest research shows, once again, that when the totality of the evidence
is examined, there is no doubt that ivermectin is highly effective as a safe
prophylaxis and treatment for Covid-19," said Paul E. Marik, founding
member of the FLCCC and Chief, Pulmonary and Critical
Care Medicine at Eastern Virginia Medical School.
Many regions around the world now recognise that ivermectin is a powerful prophylaxis and treatment for Covid-19. South Africa, Zimbabwe, Slovakia, Czech Republic, Mexico, and India have approved the drug for use by medical professionals. The results as seen in this latest study demonstrate that the ivermectin distribution campaigns repeatedly led to "rapid population-wide decreases in morbidity and mortality." "We are calling on regional public health authorities and medical professionals around the world to demand that ivermectin be included in their standard of care right away so we can end this pandemic once and for all," Marik noted.
