Uttar Pradesh is India's most populous state, with 220 million people. Two weeks ago it added ivermectin to its protocol for treating covid-19. Is ivermectin responsible for the record recovery? Who knows?

I think it's very interesting, that authorities are recommending that people take ivermectin on their own, at home, to avoid catching ivermectin. Prophylaxis has not yet been shown (much less proven) but I personally am betting on it.

Meanwhile, an advisory was issued for people to take Ivermectin 12 mg tablets to help prevention against the Covid-19 infection.

"In order to stop the effect of the Covid-19, the doctors are suggested to take Ivermectin 12 mg tablets. That are helpful in prevention against the pandemic to a great extent. Therefore the citizens are appealed to use the said tablet," read a statement issued by Lucknow Chief Medical Officer Dr RP Singh.

He added that those in home isolation should take 1 tablet each for three days. And primary and secondary contacts should take one tablet the first day and then another on the seventh day.
