I can't find a link to the actual results. Wondering if they excluded parasitic infection as a confounder, or something.

Alternately if they gave the antiparasitic far enough before the infection, the rather complex causal sequence of "severe Covid -> steroids -> parasites multiply -> Ivermectin to the rescue" might not happen in the first place. Though that should show up by severe cases not having the parasitic reaction to begin with, if the Ivermectin cleared them out.

- So in summary, actually, now that I think about it, in a country with high parasite load, an antiparasitic having no detectable effect on survival rate of a high-stress infection seems pretty suspicious on the face of it! Really could go for a study link.
