Here's how Pfizer would report those findings:
Patients who required ventilation
Ivermectin 4... ( 1.4% )
Non ivermectin.. 10 ( 4% )
A 60% Reduction in patients who require ventilation
Patients who died
Ivermectin 3.. ( 1.2% )
Non ivermectin 10. ( 4% )
A 70% reduction in mortality
ICU admissions
Ivermectin 6
Non ivermectin 8
A 20% reduction in ICU admission
Straws?
lol wtf?Well, the article defines what is meant by severe. Try reading it. And none of the differences you posted were statistically significant. So no, the article doesn’t “literally prove” that Ivermectin can prevent death or ventilation.
lol wtf?
It's virtually impossible to hit statistical significance when you're dealing with a sample size so small.
The p-value on the reduction in death from ivermectin was .09. That means that there's a 91% chance that the observed reduction in mortality from taking ivermectic was not due to chance.
No study can "prove" anything. But this study was, by its own admission, designed not to test mortality: "Before the trial started, the case fatality rate in Malaysia from COVID-19 was about 1%,25 a rate too low for mortality to be the primary end point in our study. "
Umm... you should check that citation. That meta analysis has since been retracted by its authors in the last month due to fraudulent data.The authors cite a meta analysis of RCTs showing no overall effect on survival.
Lol UK numbers said to be exploding. That vaccine is amazing! Go get your booster so you can catch it again and again.
But...
Try again mate. There was a complete removal of nearly all restrictions (including masks except in hospitals etc) a week or two before the spike in Australia.
Australia even recognizes natural immunity for a period post infection. I just received a text this morning saying I don't have to isolate for 2 months from my infection because my immunity should be sufficient. It's also only a 7 day quarantine for infection with the view to scrap it completely if asymptomatic. It will be the Flu in Australia in no time, because the hospital and death numbers have remained within reasonable levels regardless of cases.
Average life expectancy in Nigeria is 54 years. https://knoema.com/atlas/Nigeria/topics/Demographics/Age/Life-expectancy-at-birth
You really think they are keeping a good track of their covid deaths?They don't even make it to the high risk death age.
They also regularly wear masks of all things due to the prevalence of other viruses and pollution.

Try actually reading or having some knowledge about the countries before believing these idiots on social media.

edit: This actually makes no sense, because in the corrected story, published a month ago, they say that their original meta analysis found a 56% survivability increase, and that the fraud was only perpretrated by pro-ivermectin studies: https://academic.oup.com/ofid/article/9/2/ofab645/6509922
edit edit: I can't tell now which version of the meta analysis was cited, because the study links to the 2021 retracted version.
Ask Jen, she's on her second infection of omicron. Who the hell gets onicron twice? Not us and we had the wife's parents stay with us for 4 days with it and none of us are vaxxed.Have you signed up for your 4th shot yet? lol...
Have you signed up for your 4th shot yet? lol...
Poor nation that doesn’t have the ability to test to see why people are dying, in a country with an already elevated death rate
Not exactly hard to figure out why their “official” numbers are lower than first world countries
That clown's claim is total bullshit, obviously, and so easily debunked he deserves a paddlin' for posting it IMHO.Poor nation that doesn’t have the ability to test to see why people are dying, in a country with an already elevated death rate

Wouldn’t their hospitals of been overwhelmed? People dead in the streets etcPoor nation that doesn’t have the ability to test to see why people are dying, in a country with an already elevated death rate

If you want to base your covid policy and data off a country that makes it to 12 years below the US retirement age be my guest, but it seems pretty silly to be honest. Doesn't mean other approaches haven't been stupid though.
I'd actually argue that it would be less stupid to base your covid policy off of Nigeria's numbers than what actually happened in most first world countries.
This entire supply chain "crisis" is completely man made world governments. A small percentage of 70+ year olds were dying from or with covid and they shut down or slowed millions of jobs because of that. Jobs that had little to no 70+ year olds working them.
All the inflation and supply and demand problems we see are due to terrible covid policies that encompassed everyone instead of just the vulnerable and now everybody has to pay for it. They could have just worked to protect the vulnerable and the issues we're seeing now would be exponentially lower.
Go back in the news before covid and we still had supply chain issues and inflation.
Now let's look at Nigeria because you have assumed they aren't faced with the same issues...

Now maybe in 2005 and 2008 it was contributed to by world events at that time, but the reality is Nigeria like most countries has it's own issues and has for a long time. Inflation sucks, but we have these massive jumps every 5-10 years, before we settle to a new normal. It's the nature of an entire world wide economy built on taking on debt to grow wealth.
