| FDA Says Ivermectin Doesn't Work Against COVID-19 But Points To Studies That Show It Does |
| 2022-12-10 |
| [ZERO] The FDA’s website states, "Currently available data do not show ivermectin is effective against COVID-19." But half of the studies to which the FDA points support using ivermectin against COVID-19, according to the review. The papers cut against the drug agency’s repeated exhortations for people not to take ivermectin for COVID-19. In Twitter posts, public statements, and emails, FDA officials have repeatedly warned against ivermectin. Some of those statements triggered a lawsuit from doctors who say the agency’s role is to approve drugs, not to issue recommendations. The suit was dismissed this week. Dr. Pierre Kory, who frequently prescribes ivermectin for COVID-19 and co-authored a meta-analysis that concluded the drug is effective against the illness, told The Epoch Times that the government’s position on ivermectin "is one of the most glaring examples of the corruption of modern evidence based medicine." "There’s one message they want everyone to understand. And that message is that ivermectin doesn’t work," Kory said. "That’s not a scientific conclusion, that’s theirs. That’s their perverted and distorted interpretation of the data." The FDA’s media office did not respond to a request for comment. Dr. Janet Woodcock, a top official at the agency who was its commissioner from January 2021 to February 2022, told The Epoch Times via email that "ivermectin has been shown to be ineffective against COVID in large randomized trials." |
