I think the whole is primarily about business - cleverly stimulated demand, based on "counter-cultural" mythology, just as with , and other alt-med like all kind of "miracle" cancer drugs. Just look at these prices - and dozens of shops can be found online:

And the vaccines, made by billion dollar corporations that aren't held liable for any side-effects aren't primarily about business?

@jcbrand

Vaccines save lives with 1/1'000'000 serious side effects and in most countries are distributed for free.

Snake oil "remedies" do *not* provide any protection, have unknown side effects and people pay highly inflated price out of their pocket.

Guess who's screwing you more.

@kravietz

Ivermectin has been used for decades on humans, much much longer than the experimental vaccines using a novel approach.

It's also no longer patented, so generics are available worldwide, as opposed to the vaccines.

In countries where Ivermectin is not prescription based, like India, you can get it for pennies.

@jcbrand

Penicillin is also generic and available for pennies (pun intended), but it doesn't help against COVID-19.

This is exactly the point where you are being screwed by the sellers - you are buying a drug that doesn't have confirmed effect on the disease you're clearly concerned about.

@kravietz

I've sent you a link of a meta-analysis of 63 studies showing possible benefits of using Ivermectin.

I'm not aware of any such studies for Penicillin.
