Every now and then a new Covid Miracle Cure™ pops up. First, it was hydroxychloroquine, now it’s ivermectin.
Hydroxychloroquine shot to fame after a study in France, later shown to be flawed in a number of ways, claimed to show it was effective in Covid-19 cases. United States President Donald Trump touted it and one doctor claimed it cured 100% of their cases. Careful studies showed it was more likely to do harm than good. By mid-June 2020, the United States Food and Drug Administration had withdrawn emergency-use authorisation and recommended against using it for Covid-19 patients.
