Ivermectin is used to treat or prevent parasites in animals.

Ivermectin is being researched in clinical trials for its possible use for COVID-19, but as yet there is no evidence of its efficacy. Here is the most recent information. https://www.who.int/news-room/feature-stories/detail/who-advises-that-ivermectin-only-be-used-to-treat-covid-19-within-clinical-trials

Please read:
- Why You Should Not Use Ivermectin to Treat or Prevent COVID-19 https://www.fda.gov/consumers/consumer-updates/why-you-should-not-use-ivermectin-treat-or-prevent-covid-19

Merck, the pharmaceutical company that produces ivermectin and who has the most to gain from its use for COVID, advises against it use until there is more evidence. https://www.merck.com/news/merck-statement-on-ivermectin-use-during-the-covid-19-pandemic/

I have to say that your statement that "...as of yet there is NO evidence of it efficacy is not correct. What you are really saying is...I, the WHO, the FDA and big phamha will not acknowledge the data and proof that does not come from big trials that usually can only be funded the larger pharmaceutical companies. After all, giving positive press to a drug that is highly effective as a prophylactic against COVID-19 isn't good business now is it? NO evidence? Really! Really!?
