I am curious as to where this originated as being a remedy for Covid? If someone can answer this question they should be nominated as the most intelligent person on the fire. Serious question.

It's been used for river blindness (Onchocerciasis) for years.
Now I'm interested in who thought to try it.
Although, it's over of the safest drugs out there, so it wasn't a really risky thing to try.

Depends - Dr. Pierre Kory was one of the first US doctors to study Ivermectin for SARS-CoV-2. But Fauci and others considered both Ivermectin and Chloroquine and Hydroxychloroquine for the treatment in 2003 -2004 time frame with the initial SARS outbreak in China.
As far as first application using Ivermectin specifically for SARS-CoV-2 there were several hospitals in Europe, Brazil, and Africa that all began using it very early on. Because Ivermectin is so widely used around the globe, it would be pretty difficult to nail down who did what first.

They have been using Ivermectin for over 40 years to control viruses borne by parasites on both sides of the equator. The governments of equatorial countries buy it to treat there citizens effectively. Google up FLCCC AND CLICK ON SOME OF THE LINKS. Big pharma can't make any money on it that's its only failing....mb

The problem with ivermectin is it is too cheap. Big Pharos can’t make any money off it.

Could it be that another “failing” in big pharma/corporate medicine’s eyes might be that it actually stems the disease.

The only failure of Ivermectin relative to Covid is in the profit department. $1-$2 per dose versus $530 per dose for the most recent Big Pharma release versus $8,000 (+/-) for Remdasivir.

I had read somewhere that in areas where the population were all taking their weekly IM pill researchers noticed covid numbers were minimal. Maybe this was with Sars-1.
There is a state in India with 220 million people where they pretty much wiped out covid delta with IM given to anyone symptomatic and people they had exposed.
As it is very effective for minimizing covid symptoms, then I wonder if it will do the same for the flu and common cold?! I wouldnt be surprised if the govt dosent soon classify IM as a prohibited drug with a narcotic type rating.
What is 'big pharma' anymore? multinational investment companies controlling drug and healthcare conglomerates all married into global political families?

Jim I believe they noticed that those who used it for parasites didn't get COVID-19, or at least didn't end up in the hospital. That gave them the idea to try it on COVID-19 patients.

Veterinarians have known about the anti-viral properties of Ivermectin for decades.

It wasn't quite that casual. Ivermectin has a well documented anti-inflammatory and anti-viral effect. It was considered as a possible treatment for SARS-. So it was widely speculated that it would have a positive effect for SARS-CoV-2 very early into the pandemic. As to who first started a clinical treatment using it is pretty difficult to nail down.

Here's one from the Nat. Institute For Health, the place where the CDC's supposed go to source for setting policy. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3043740/There are more articles on the subject from the same source...do search for Ivermectin use for viruses.

Ivermectin was found to inhibit covid-19 replication in vitro. Definition of in vitro: outside the living body and in an artificial environment https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32251768/We report here that Ivermectin, an FDA-approved anti-parasitic previously shown to have broad-spectrum anti-viral activity in vitro, is an inhibitor of the causative virus (SARS-CoV-2), with a single addition to Vero-hSLAM cells 2 h post infection with SARS-CoV-2 able to effect ~5000-fold reduction in viral RNA at 48 h. Ivermectin therefore warrants further investigation for possible benefits in humans.

The first report I heard was from Australia. I read it on an Australian news site. Quickly that report was not to be found. I caught what was probably the Corona virus in the fall of 2020 and as soon as I showed fever I took a dose of Ivermectin of about 10% over the recommended dose. The next day I was free of fever although a secondary infection did manifest itself in the form of coughing up yellow junk which I knocked out with a Zpack. Before Christmas this year the same scenario happened again. I had 3 degrees of fever which was gone within 24 hours of taking Ivermectin. My little grand daughter has really bad reactions to mosquito bites and I'm sure flea bites when she is outside loving on our fleabag cat. I rub a little injectable Ivermectin on the bites and poof they go away. My brother had a persistent rash on his arm which no one could cure. He swallowed 2cc of injectable Ivermectin and it disappeared.

They made up kits with a Z-pak and other goodies. This is what they used in India. From the original article: This is what they used in India. Each home kit contained the following: Paracetamol tablets [tylenol], Vitamin C, Multivitamin, Zinc, Vitamin D3, Ivermectin 12 mg [quantity #10 tablets], Doxycycline 100 mg [quantity #10 tablets]. Other non-medication components included face masks, sanitizer, gloves and alcohol wipes, a digital thermometer, and a pulse oximeter.
MAGA! This is the way!

Yes correct. But IM was the magic pill in the packs. It is sickening what happened.
