"WSJ Misleads Public on Ivermectin, Ignores Latest Revelations About ‘Hidden Author’ Who Undermined Its Efficacy.

The Wall Street Journal this month published an article citing a flawed, unpublished study concluding ivermectin didn’t reduce COVID-19 hospitalizations. Meanwhile, the paper ignored news earlier this month that a documentary producer discovered the individual likely responsible for tanking a key, systematic review showing how ivermectin could have saved millions of lives.""

He makes a good point. The only thing the study found, even if we take it at face value, is that Ivermectin did not reduce hospitalizations under the specific conditions of the study. It did not show that Ivermectin doesn't work. To prove that a drug doesn't work is an insurmountable task--pretty much impossible.
