No, it was a randomized, double blind, placebo controlled trial for ivermectin combined with doxycycline, an antibiotic. Is there any randomized, double blind, placebo controlled trials for ivermectin alone? An important distinction. I agree that further testing is needed, but it's not the smoking gun you want it to be to prove ivermectin is effective.

And fair point that study you posted was one the FDA referred to. Albeit not one that swayed their decision greatly according to their publication. Remdesivir already had a testing history that showed some efficacy against viruses similar to Covid. You act like it was approved at a high price point with a low threshold for approval but you're not factoring in the decade plus of testing it's already been through.

Ivermectin does have at least as long a safety history, even if it was for a different use case.
