If you want to skip the doctor's background, slide it out to 7:00. Both of the doctors are still very excited about Ivermectin and seeing the study published, which should happen soon.

Some highlights:
The paper on the ICON study is close to being accepted by a major international journal (subject now only to statistical review, but passed all other acceptance stages).
JJ Rajter would like a multi-center RCT on Ivermectin in the USA now and he will help try and organize it.

I was so glad to hear it had passed the other stages of review, I thought it was being stonewalled/sidelined. JJ&J seem to have the enthusiasm and power to keep the ball moving and to have them heading up a RCT is great news indeed. Thanks for the highlights, jpdowlin!

It seems odd to say that Ivermectin is being ignored or suppressed when there are like thirty trials going on.

But it kinda is. Example, Mexico's subsecretary of health was pretty adamant that there was no evidence of Ivermectin effectiveness and to stop using it, and mexican newspapers have been parroting that its a "fake cure" never even making mention of the ICON study, at least to debunk it if they must. They act like if the little evidence we have doesn't even exist, it seems kinda sketchy.

And in the same sentences, they say " favipiravir/XYZ is being researched, well see if it works". It seems oddly biased how some treat Ivermectin as a fake and dangerous cure, in comparison to other drugs that are at similar stages of research.
