He is at the National University of San Marcos, Lima, Peru.

Yes, we have found that Ivermectin is very effective, what was reported in vitro in the Australia study carried out in early April, we have evidenced it when treating people with COVID-19.

Following the treatment indicated in the Table, the results have been very good in those who complete the indicated treatment and undergo medical follow-up.

The following results are obtained in the 39 cases treated:

- Patients with disease improvement within 2 and 3 days of starting treatment = 100%.

- Fever resolution rate at 36 hours = 94%.

- Resolution rate of dyspnea at 72 hours = 86%

There are interesting charts, esp. the first one that goes through the days since infection and shows how the virus accelerates and what the treatments are.

The other two are in Spanish. :(

LOL. This TrialSiteNews links to this post! But quotes attributed to Dr. Aguirre in the TSN article are not in this post. Are they elsewhere in the sub?

The article says he was being quoted here, but of course he was never on reddit, AFAIK.

A Small Observational Case Study

Dr. Gustavo A. Aguirre-Chang was mentioned earlier as a key physician that produced the Ivermectin therapy plan. As it turns out, he is an important player in the Peruvian Ivermectin experiment. Recently active in Reddit, the doctor reports again on the influence of the Australian preclinical lab study and delves into a description of Peruvian off-label use of the anti-parasite drug to treat COVID-19. In mid May, Aguirre-Chan commented in the Reddit group that his group had treated 39 COVID-19 cases and that the Ivermectin regimen was quite successful for “those who complete the indicated treatment and undergo medical follow-up.” Dr. Aguirre-Chan reported that 1) patents with the disease were showing improvement within 2 and 3 days of starting treatment (100% of the 36); 2) fever resolution rate at 36 hours of taking ivermectin was at 94% and 3) resolution rate of dyspnea (difficulty breathing) at 72 hours was 86%.
