Why can't everyone just mind their own business? Then we wouldn't have to argue endlessly over vaccination nor twist people's arms or constantly tell the Karens and Lefties to go **** themselves and leave us alone.

Because the vaccines do not cure anyone from COVID. Vaccinated people can still be COVID spreaders and they don't wear masks thinking the vaccines will fully protect them which is false.

It states there is no clinical proof to support its wide use and effectiveness for COVID.

Why do antivaxxer's refuse to be used as guinea pigs yet they consider using Ivermectin when that is exactly what they would be doing?
Actually, the jury is in on ivermectin. It works for covid-19. There is no guinea pigging about Ivermectin. It's been tried and tested since 1987. It may not be as effective as a vaccine, other than when the vaccine loses its efficacy, in which case it might be somewhat better.

But Ivermectin is not a preventative either and even prescribed by a doctor has side effects.

So why take this drug in an uncontrolled setting but refuse the vaccine.

Let's just say -- people are not following the science.

Wow, that's great news, however I was not aware that Covid was around since 1987

It's effective against parasitic infestations. No convincing evidence whatsoever in regards to Covid

There are clinical trials now and numerous countries have done small tests with little controls.

But the important issue is that folks are self prescribing the drug.

They need to go to their doctor.....not self administer.

When I got Covid I was 1/2 vaxed and given one pill of ivermectin. It did the trick. My son , who has passed, received 5 days of it. He lasted 6 weeks with every treatment possible. So, my recommendation is get the vax and back to masks n hand sanitizer. Now another variant MU is lurking.

Well, don't look now serger, but.....

Ivermectin fights 21 viruses, including SARS-CoV-2, the cause of Covid-19. A single dose reduced the viral load of SARS-CoV-2 in cells by 99.8% in 24 hours and 99.98% in 48 hours, according to a June 2020 study published in the journal Antiviral Research.

As I said , you can kill anything in a dish. If all was translatable in vivo, all types of cancer would have been completely curable by now.

Apologies - I'm not sure why those links don't seem to be working (because I know you tried to click them - LOL) - here's another:

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8088823/

Currently, as of December 14, 2020, there is accumulating evidence that demonstrates both the safety and efficacy of ivermectin in the prevention and treatment of COVID-19. Large-scale epidemiologic analyses validate the findings of in vitro, animal, prophylaxis, and clinical studies. Epidemiologic data from regions of the world with widespread ivermectin use have demonstrated a temporally associated reduction in case counts, hospitalizations, and fatality rates.
