That is exactly what Australian Government Health Bureaucrats have done.
Here we have the largest ever published study on Ivermectin - the entire town of 220,517 adults in Brazil.
And despite those with a higher risk in the Ivermectin group, the study found those taking Ivermectin had their risk of hospitalisation and death HALVED.
Following this and the publication of Professor Borody’s Australian study, the TGA must immediately reverse their ban on Ivermectin, they should apologise for the suffering & deaths they have caused, and all senior management should consider their positions.
From Research Gate:
Ivermectin prophylaxis used for COVID-19 reduces COVID-19 infection and mortality rates: A 220,517-subject, populational-level retrospective citywide.
Results: A total of 220,517 subjects were included in the analysis; 133,051 (60.3%) ivermectin users and 87,466 (39.7%) non-users. COVID-19 infection occurred in 4,311 (3.2%) treated subjects, and 3,034 (3.5%) non-treated subjects.
This evidence showed a 7% reduction in COVID-19 infection rate with use of ivermectin: COVID-19 infection rate ratio (Risk ratio (RR) of 0.93; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.89 – 0.98; p = 0.003).
A total of 62 deaths (1.4% mortality rate) occurred among users and 79 deaths (2.6% mortality rate) among non-users, showing a 48% reduction in mortality rate (RR, 0,52; 95%CI, 0.37 – 0.72; p = 0.0001).
Risk of dying from COVID-19 among ivermectin users was 45% lower than non-users (RR, 0.55; 95%CI, 0.40 – 0.77; p = 0.0004). (Emphasis added)
Study Conclusion: Prophylactic use of ivermectin showed significantly reduced COVID-19 infection rate, mortality rate and chance of dying from COVID-19 on a calculated population-level analysis, which controlled for all relevant confounding variables.
