Original Note:
Early experiments in laboratory studies suggested that ivermectin could block the virus. The experiments worked because of the high concentrations of the drug, well beyond safe levels for people. Ivermectin does not work and showed no signs of alleviating COVID-19 disease. https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa2115869 https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamainternalmedicine/fullarticle/2789362 https://www.cochrane.org/CD015017/INFECTN_ivermectin-preventing-and-treating-covid-19
