The only information provided here referred to some in vitro testing done in the UK? I may be wrong about the location. Yours is the first mention of any in vivo testing that I have seen. Gotta link? But so what? Somewhere somebody did a trial with monkeys, rats, and/or innocent furry little bunnies? So what?
Show me the double blind testing on human beings and maybe we can talk about it.
It has already been done many times, you ****, moonbatty idiot!!! Big parma in cahoots with CDC, FDA and NIH do not want Ivermectin as the go to preventative and cure for the communist chinese wuhan virus because big pharma cannot profit BILLIONS from its use. THAT IS A FACT!!!

Abstract
Ivermectin, a US Food and Drug Administration-approved anti-parasitic agent, was found to inhibit severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) replication in vitro. A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial was conducted to determine the rapidity of viral clearance and safety of ivermectin among adult SARS-CoV-2 patients. The trial included 72 hospitalized patients in Dhaka, Bangladesh, who were assigned to one of three groups: oral ivermectin alone (12 mg once daily for 5 days), oral ivermectin in combination with doxycycline (12 mg ivermectin single dose and 200 mg doxycycline on day 1, followed by 100 mg every 12 h for the next 4 days), and a placebo control group. Clinical symptoms of fever, cough, and sore throat were comparable among the three groups. Virological clearance was earlier in the 5-day ivermectin treatment arm when compared to the placebo group (9.7 days vs 12.7 days; p = 0.02), but this was not the case for the ivermectin + doxycycline arm (11.5 days; p = 0.27). There were no severe adverse drug events recorded in the study. A 5-day course of ivermectin was found to be safe and effective in treating adult patients with mild COVID-19. Larger trials will be needed to confirm these preliminary findings.
