BUT NOT BECAUSE OF ITS EFFICACY IN TREATING COVID.
ALSO. THEY DONT COME UP WITH A ****ING TOP 10. IT'S ON A LIST WITH HUNDREDS OF OTHER DRUGS (479), BUT AGAIN, NOT FOR ITS USEFULNESS IN TREATING COVID.
so, either you are using a fact in an intentionally misleading way, or you are repeating a talking point you heard somewhere else without research. either way, its rich that you are saying someone else is "part of the problem".
here is the actual list from the WHO
here is the wikipedia page on the list
here is the language from the WHO directly about what its on the list for (newsflash, it doesnt mention covid, or respiratory infections at all)
"Ivermectin is a antiparasitic medicine with a broad spectrum of activity. It is used in the treatment of onchocerciasis (river blindness), strongyloidiasis and other diseases caused by soil transmitted helminthiasis. It is also used to treat scabies."
