No. Ivermectin is not officially approved in the UK for the treatment of COVID-19. Source from the government : https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/freedom-of-inform...



I was under the impression that it was approved in July and your source predates this but I could be wrong

What do you say to the multitude of positive studies though? https://c19ivermectin.com/ Are all of them wrong?


This epidemiologist points out several major flaws with that website. For one, the website selectively picks the best result from each paper, which results in the website aggregating a bunch of unrelated measurements, including measurements that were not even each paper's main outcome/measurement. https://twitter.com/GidMK/status/1422044335076306947


I'd like to see an alternative meta-study if one is available, do you know if a better meta-study exists?
