Original Note:
The FDA say ivermectin is not approved for treating COVID-19, only some parasitic/lice infections - this consumer advice is still online. A systematic review of 25 Randomised Control Trials found it does not reduce the risk of needing ventilation or dying from COVID-19. https://www.fda.gov/consumers/consumer-updates/why-you-should-not-use-ivermectin-treat-or-prevent-covid-19 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9308124/
