How to manage a pandemic

A health secretary in Uttar Pradesh wrote this succinct description of that state’s well-organized official response to Covid-19. In May-June 2020, feeling “despondent “ at rising numbers, UP decided on wide distribution of Ivermectin for prevention and treatment, beginning in late July. Today, I calculated based on Worldometer and Indian government stats: US deaths/million=1023; UP=36 deaths/million. https://indianexpress.com/article/opinion/columns/coronavirus-pandemic-covid-vaccine-tracker-uttar-pradesh-7107756/

Uttar Pradesh has a population size of +200 million. That's a large number and would represent a large sample size. You will find the prevention and treatment mentioned here -- Coronavirus (COVID-19) Treatment Methods in India and worldwide (covidindia.org)

Below is an excerpt from the page

Some of the states followed their own treatment modalities before this recommendation which include

Uttar Pradesh

The UP government has decided to replace Hydroxychloroquine with Ivermectin for the prevention and treatment of COVID-19 after the promising results seen in Agra, where it was used on an experimental basis, according to the sources in the government. Also, the medicine proved effective not only in the treatment but also in the prevention of large scale infection among frontline health workers, engaged in the treatment and handling of COVID-19 patients.
