This study is wholly based on placebo (679) vs Ivermectin (679).
The other individuals are completely irrelevant to the results of this article. They aren't even mentioned anymore, nor in text or calculations, only in other unrelated studies. Like I said the lead doctor is pushing for fluvoxamine.
If you consider a 10% improvement irrelevant, that's on you. I, and many people, do not.
I'm also not advocating in favor of ivermectin over better options, provided they are accessible, which is not the case over here yet. Vaccines are not treatment, and the current highly effective treatments are also highly expensive. Ivermectin is cheap as hell, and does work better than placebo.
What I don't like is people saying something is useless when it does have a positive effect.
It might not mean much for you people north of the equator, but it does make a difference for us here, which is why we even have such ongoing researches still.
