Original Note:
This is intentionally misleading; ivermectin is on the essential medication list but NOT for the treatment of COVID; it treats parasites https://list.essentialmeds.org/medicines/58 WHO advises AGAINST using ivermectin to treat COVID, many trials have shown it to be ineffective against COVID https://www.who.int/news-room/feature-stories/detail/who-advises-that-ivermectin-only-be-used-to-treat-covid-19-within-clinical-trials https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa2115869
