Original Note:
Ivermectin is indeed not a proven treatment for Covid-19. But ivermectin is not solely "a drug formulated for cows and horses" as NPR claim. That claim by NPR is not accurate. Ivermectin is an anti-parasitic drug with multiple human uses. https://www.forbes.com/sites/joshuacohen/2021/08/29/ivermectin-a-40-year-old-anti-parasitic-now-embedded-in-a-covid-19-culture-war/?sh=978c6f4ce092
