You sound like someone who clearly bought into the derision. All the comments you made were the same shallow arguments made against it without providing any meaningful point.

All those things could be true and yet it means nothing in terms of whether Ivermectin was ineffective in treating COVID. This article proves that it was at worst on-par with general treatments and at worse better!

This is a misreading of even the abstract.

There was no ivermectin-only test. The study found ivermectin was, at best, ineffective as a complement to usual treatment. It doesn’t bother to characterise the downsides.
