What side-effects? IVERTODO look into side-effects. I don't think they are consequential. Ivermectin has been given to billion(s) of people, something like 3 deaths per the Safety study.

The Municipal Council also approved a norm for the regulation of the sale of Ivermectin. Currently the sale of the drug is free, but after the enactment its sale without a prescription will be prohibited.

The measure was established in order to safeguard health and avoid health consequences and side effects that can affect the health of the population, says the norm.

However, the free distribution of Ivermectin was established in hospitals and health centers, so that patients with a diagnosis of Covid-19 can access this medicine free of charge with prior consent and medical evaluation.

I think that they made it prescription required because they know it's effective. They don't want people hoarding all their stock making it unavailable to those who need it most. The second that less informed people (normies) realize there is a very effective treatment for COVID-19 they will all try to get their hands on it. We're already seeing people with lupus struggle to get hydroxychloroquine, we're also already seeing ivermectin horse paste increase in price.

This is a very subtle (people would easily miss this news), but also huge sign that ivermectin is indeed effective against COVID-19 in my opinion.

Makes sense!

LOL. Toilet paper. I saw people hauling 3 years' supply out of Costco. What was their theory? All the toilet paper manufacturers were going to die from the virus???

We're already seeing people with lupus struggle to get hydroxychloroquine

That's really a shame. The HCQ manufacturers should be ramping up! I suppose they're running into supply chain problems. Where is HCQ made?

we're also already seeing ivermectin horse paste increase in price.

That's true, but I don't think it's because of huge awareness of ivermectin. Yet.

Have you seen this twitter thread? Only momentary bumps in ivermectin trends, mostly when the 4/3 Monash 48 hours study came out.
