It seems to me that people who would normally be very suspicious of information that comes with the US govt's seal of approval are now saying that questioning the narrative that rubbishes any medication except an experimental vaccine whose long-term health consequences are unknown and which you have to get a refill of every six months is white supremacist or something. Suddenly, science is not institutionalized knowledge that's subject to countless political pressures but something you must "believe" or you're a dangerous person.

You are extrapolating a lot. Like why the piss are you bringing up white supremacy? If you have family members you're arguing with on Facebook about this then don't take it out on me.
You're also extrapolating a lot from a study he randomly posted as if publishing a study means we have a new cure. You publish a study. Then it gets peer reviewed. Then you get more studies. Then more peer reviews. Then you get meta analysis of all the studies and then maybe you can talk about having a new thing.
As far as I know the analysis of the studies that has been done has said that ivermectin is not effective at treating covid. And several of the studies, including the big one that was done in Egypt that was the only thing worth hooting about, have been retracted for being dog****.
But if you'd like to take ivermectin cause you heard about it on Joe Rogan or Facebook then knock yourself out.
