Another country approves Ivermectin for the treatment of COVID-19. Discussion on this news story followed by an overview of how Ivermectin works and a review of the current research.
Belize, a Central American country, has just recently approved the use of Ivermectin for the treatment of COVID-19. Their health ministry reviewed the evidence to date and felt that the current benefits of Ivermectin justified it’s formal integration into their treatment protocols for COVID-19. They acknowledge that many of the studies have shortcomings, but fall back on the overarching positive results of these studies mixed with the safety profile and history of widespread use of Ivermectin as an anti-parasitic. Beyond this, they state that by placing it into their formal treatment protocols, it gives the control back to healthcare providers to ensure that the medication is being taken in the correct manner at appropriate doses using formulations intended for humans and that people with contraindications to the medication will be able to talk about these with their healthcare provider. After that, we will touch on 4 theorized mechanisms by which Ivermectin may be efficacious including Imp alpha/beta, RNA dependent RNA polymerase inhibition, CD147R inhibition, and modulation of the STAT3 pathway. Check out the video to understand all these things and more!
