The other problem is that a lot of the randomized controlled studies USE THE WRONG PROTOCOL for Ivermectin. Most of them use some absurdly low dose, and the FrontLine COVID protocol guys have specifically said if you're going to treat someone with Ivermectin you are also required to include stuff like Zinc as kind of a kitchen sink approach to stopping it.
So these studies are purposefully built to achieve the outcome they desire.

See page 2 under "Early Treatment"
Dose used in vitro to kill covid was supposedly equivalent of 7 mg/kg. So at this level of 0.2 mg/kg you're at like 3%. And people saying, well if only you had it at 5% it would have worked!!
Yeah I don't think the dose really matters much. The higher the better, sure, but all the studies used doses that are way too low to do anything other than slow down replication even the ones that showed a huge benefit.
Example, large Brazilian study of 250,000 people used 0.2 mg/kg/day, which is about halfway between ccc prevention and early treatment amounts and found 70% reduction in death.
The Brazilian one MSM plastered everywhere was using 0.4 mg/kg for 3 days whereas ccc says 0.4 mg/kg for 5 days -- not a huge difference -- and found possibly a slight effect but not statistically relevant.
The difference is the former study gave ivermectin before getting sick and the latter only after being sick for several days. This is why I believe what matters is whether you have even low levels of ivermectin in you when you have only an initial small amount of virus.
