Okay not everyone’s going to blatantly disregard any reasonable hypothesis. Now that you have linked to articles it is at the least, reasonable. I went through the review and it’s clear no one has actually tested it systematically in vivo. A lot of drugs have antiviral activity in vitro, I know because I used to do those assays. Let’s just say that it’s worth testing this drug in Covid patients at the least.

I used to believe IVIG will also work on Covid patients, but given the small number of studies that have been done and the fact that no one noticed any effects accidentally suggests that there’s probably not much of a fire under that smoke. Two of the most important qualities one needs as a scientist is to embrace crazy but reasonable hypotheses and drop them the moment it becomes clear they are not full true.

Please also note that The fundamental issue with Covid is that it’s actually mostly mild. The majority of people don’t get serious from it. By the moment you do get serious from it, no drugs work anymore. That’s why dexa is the best medicine till now and no ones bothering with the antibody cocktails even after it’s proven to be worthwhile. By the time people are seriously sick I doubt even ivermectin would work that well.

Anyways glad it worked for you and hope someone does test this drug systematically so we will know for sure and sooner rather than later.
