I think the whole #ivermectin is primarily about business - cleverly stimulated demand, based on "counter-cultural" mythology, just as with #homeopathy, 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?
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.
Nobody is mandating that I take Ivermectin, Introducing ivermectin passports or blaming me for the pandemic if I don't take Ivermectin.
I think I know who's screwing me more, and it's not Ivermectin salespeople.
BTW, there are numerous studies on the effectiveness of Ivermectin.
I think you make a valid point that there are unscrupulous actors making large margins on Ivermectin sales and that these people therefore have a financial incentive to push a certain narrative.
Of course, the exact same logic can be applied to vaccine manufacturers, who make much more money on vaccine sales and have much more (advertising) money available to shape public discussion and policy making.
So even if you assume for the sake of argument that Astra Zeneca & friends are 100% corrupt and profit-driven, there's literally hundreds of health, science and policy professionals between you and them, and there's media. No real conspiracy would survive this for long.
In case of ivermectin you got exactly the opposite - 100% direct sales channel between some fishy traders and uneducated buyers, driven by a few health professionals going right against the scientific consensus.
BTW, about "scientific consensus". It's often the heretics who push science forward in the face of a lot of resistance from the "consensus".
When Semmelweiss said that surgeons should wash their hands, he was smeared and ignored by the establishment.
Semmelweiss was ignored in early 19th century when Marxism was considered "scientific". Scientific methods have changed significantly since then. The frauds who now mention Semmelweiss on their YouTube debates are usually the same people who 10 years ago supported Andrew Wakefield in his anti-MMR vaccine campaign, that later came out to be a scientific fraud driven by lawsuit companies money.
I read about Semmelweis in a book, not from a Youtube video.
