It's unclear if English is your first language or not, but in case there is confusion resulting from this, quotation marks around a word is sometimes used to indicate sarcasm.

In this context, it could be read that you don't believe that Covid-19 is at all serious - that the effects are "no worse than the flu".

I don't know if you believe that, or if that is your intention, but there are some that are claiming this pandemic is a 'media hoax'. As you can imagine, that is a very emotionally expensive viewpoint to have to fight, especially when it's an at-risk loved one who is making that claim.

If you're a medical professional and you've seen numerous papers or reports coming in that ibuprofen is a factor in the severity of Covid-19, why do you need to use a throw away account? Why can't you say where this information has come from?

I've seen this topic shot down by doctors on Twitter - a throw away account quoting "primary sources" is unlikely to convince many of us! Can you expand with something a bit more concrete? For example, where are these guidelines that are saying not to us ibuprofen?

If any official source, regardless of country, recommends to abstain from ibuprofen I would simply like to know. I neither live in the US nor think that scientists and medical personnel in other country are less educated or trained.

I think it's about distinguishing important information from stuff people randomly write online because a non-peer reviewed study made a hypothesis.

The goal is for everyone around the globe to be as safe as possible and misinformation in the context of medical advice is not helpful.

Of course it's better not to take ibuprofen, in any case. But some people may rely on it or other NSAIDs.
