Yeah I had covid in January no symptoms just loss off taste for 3 days. I did the same things you do in regards to hygiene. Always staying alert but not scarred .

True. Still a lot of known unknowns and unknown unknowns.
Being a doctor during this pandemic is tough at the best of times, nevermind having to deal with these idiots.

I want to laugh, cry, and facepalm myself into a coma all at once after reading that.Some more images from that Twitter thread on the Ivermectin Facebook group...
Sad that they want to sue the doctor for not allowing her husband to continue high dose vitamin C since he has entered renal failure. Being a doctor in these kinds of regions must be tough right now.

Well to be fair they probably don't deal with them as much as you think. After all they are clearly not consulting with their doctors lol

It's an organization that is promoting guidelines for COVID treatment that include ivermectin. Frontline COVID Care or something like that.

For me, it does not matter. Throughout my 4-years in seminary, professors instructed us not to use Wikipedia because it was not a credible source (not that they do not have citations on it).

Wikipedia is fine. You can see the edit history if you have a problem with an article. It's very transparent.

Dr Kory and the math+ protocol is legit, but he's jumping the gun a bit on ivermectin. small studies have shown some benefits, and a lot of doctors started to give it during a time when nothing else seemed to work and the WHO was saying remdesivir has no to little benefits. however, the big studies are still pending and the jury is still out, which is why so many doctors are reluctant to give it. doctors know when they start giving meds that they know might not work, there will be significant consequences and harm their patients (remember the number of medical errors that hurt Americans? this is how), so some interpret this as doctors holding out on their patients to give them a possible cure, which we know it isn't.

And what does that have to do with an article about a conspiracy theorist that's well cited. All of those citations are false because you don't want him discredited?

Wikipedia itself is not a source, but the cited sources in Wikipedia are.
They're telling you not to use a Wikipedia as a source not because they think Wikipedia isn't credible, but because they want you to do your own research.
The reason the people in the video don't like Wikipedia is a completely different reason why your academic professors don't want you to use Wikipedia for your papers.

No, that is not what I am saying. Not interested in anything other than the truth and having rational civil discourse based on evidence-based data if possible..

And those citations will lead you to the evidence-based data that the guy shouldn't be listened to.

If you are only interested in the truth then you REALLY need to pay attention to some of the sources that you get of your tweets from.

You mean people with #ConspiracyTheories in their Twitter bios aren't truthful sources?
Here is the main source from the bolded portion of that Wikipedia snippet:
It's very thorough.
Ivermectin is the new hydroxychloroquine, take 2
A few months ago, Scott Gavura wrote about how the veterinary deworming drug ivermectin has become the new hydroxychloroquine in that it is being promoted as a highly effective treatment against COVID

It's very thorough.

Think of it this way. You are taking a university course about turtles. You have an assignment to write a paper about turtles. Coincidentally, your sister Molly also took the same class last year and also wrote a paper about turtles.You CANNOT use Molly's paper as a source for your paper. That's obviously stupid.
However, you can look at what sources Molly used in her paper, and then use those sources to do your own research for your own paper.
Does that make sense?

Er. A lot of big studies have been shown benefits. Randomized controlled trials are the ones that are small in scale.
I am opposed to the whole idea of placebo being given to a group especially when there are treatments that are known to work as a vaccine and treatment are out there. Why not compare ivermectin to treatments that work instead of not treating patients or tricking them with a placebo? You can at least use it for treatment scenario. I highly dislike one group of people being completely vulnerable for science but i guess there is nothing like IVM as a prophylaxis out there that works afaik.

So willing putting lives at risk like that with no chance of the treatment working is fine to you?

The whole point of the placebo is to have a control group to compare against to find out if the things you're testing even works.

So putting something against a working treatment as a control group wont show if a drug works? I mean, why not? Shouldnt a new drug at least be comparable to the current working drugs and be just as safe or safer?
I really dont understand why there needs to be specifically a placebo control group at all. You just need to show that a drug works better than the current ones right?

Blood clot risk much higher from Covid than from vaccine, study finds
Researchers said their work is the biggest study of its kind on this issue and helps put the risks into context.

It can. Chris Hedges is one of my favorite journalists ever, and that's what he studied at Harvard I believe. If you ever watch a lot of the early Sam Harris, Christopher Hitchens, Richard Dawkins debates against academic theologians, you can tell that they're basically at the same level as well read, elite history professors. And that's basically what they are at the end of the day, and usually are just doing history research on old written works.
