   Ivermectin, the latest supposed treatment for COVID-19 being touted by   
   anti-vaccination groups, had “no effect whatsoever” on the disease,   
   according to   
   a large patient study.   
      
   That’s the conclusion of the Together Trial, which has subjected several   
   purported nonvaccine treatments for COVID-19 to carefully designed clinical   
   testing. The trial is supervised by McMaster University in Hamilton, Canada,   
   and   
   conducted in Brazil.   
      
   One of the trial’s principal investigators, Edward Mills of McMaster,   
   presented   
   the results from the Ivermectin arms of the study at an Aug. 6 symposium   
   sponsored by the National Institutes of Health.   
      
   Among the 1,500 patients in the study, he said, Ivermectin showed “no effect   
   whatsoever” on the trial’s outcome goals — whether patients required   
   extended   
   observation in the emergency room or hospitalization.   
      
   “In our specific trial,” he said, “we do not see the treatment benefit   
   that a   
   lot of the advocates believe should have been” seen.

   Ivermectin = snake oil = bullshit.  This is settled.  All of Trump's and   
   Republiscums'/QAnon crackpot "miracle" treatments are bullshit.  Settled.
