    Guy might have worms or parasites. There were some studies that showed a weak correlation between ivermectin and better COVID-19 outcomes, but it turns out that only studies from third world countries showed even that weak effect, and yeah if you get rid of other problems like parasites, the body can fight off COVID-19 better.

    Article talking about the studies, and HN comments

      I read one story of a guy who swore Ivermectin saved him from Covid. He’s completely cured now thanks to horse dewormer with no lasting effects.

      (Except for losing half his lung capacity). But it prevented all bad covid issues, flawlessly perfect outcome!

      Or maybe it’s totally made up bullshit?

      All it’s missing is “and then everyone clapped” at the end.

        Oh totally that’s the more likely explanation. My point is that even steelmanning the argument, it’s still wrong.
