Ivermectin for COVID-19

4th treatment shown to reduce risk in August 2020, now with p < 0.00000000001 from 105 studies, recognized in 24 countries.

Lower risk for mortality, ventilation, ICU, hospitalization, recovery, cases, and viral clearance.

No treatment is 100% effective. Protocols combine treatments.

5,600+ studies for 131 treatments. c19ivm.org

Small study with 28 patients treated with ivermectin + AZ + cholecalciferol and 7 control patients.

All treated patients were PCR- at day 10 while all control patients remained PCR+. The mean duration of symptoms was 3 days in the treatment group and 10 days in the control group.

This is the 3rd of 105 COVID-19 controlled studies for ivermectin, which collectively show efficacy with p<0.0000000001 (1 in 774 quintillion).

52 studies are RCTs, which show efficacy with p=0.00000021.

Study covers vitamin D and ivermectin.

recovery time, 70.0% lower, relative time 0.30, p < 0.001, treatment 28, control 7.

risk of viral+ at day 10, 97.2% lower, RR 0.03, p < 0.001, treatment 0 of 28 (0.0%), control 7 of 7 (100.0%), NNT 1.0, relative risk is not 0 because of continuity correction due to zero events (with reciprocal of the contrasting arm), primary outcome.
