Covid III: Delta Force

[MiserereNobis]

A peer-reviewed study of 1400 people (largest trial so far) shows that ivermectin is ineffective at reducing hospital admissions.

As reported in the Wall Street Journal: https://www.wsj.com/articles/ivermectin-didnt-reduce-covid-19-hospitalizations-in-largest-trial-to-date-11647601200

But then there is this study posted on the NIH.GOV site. Ivermectin Prophylaxis Used for COVID-19: A Citywide, Prospective, Observational Study of 223,128 Subjects Using Propensity Score Matching - PubMed (nih.gov)

Conclusion: In this large PSM study, regular use of ivermectin as a prophylactic agent was associated with significantly reduced COVID-19 infection, hospitalization, and mortality rates.

How's a person to know what to do given the conflicting information?

There are some serious flaws in the study.

When dealing with conflicting data go with the bulk of the established evidence.

Where there is a demand for shoddy unpublished Ivermectin studies to pass around on social media to make people question the scientific consensus the market will supply it.
