I am wondering about using ivermectin as a preventative measure for covid if i am feeling early signs of illness ive listened to quite a few doctors who have said they have had great results with their patience in covid recovery?

The FDA has not approved ivermectin, which is used to treat certain worm infections,for the treatment of covid infections. It is not an antiviral medication. Using an unapproved medication for a certain disease can be dangerous. For these reasons most physicians will not prescribe ivermectin for covid infections

Why did you not get vaccinated? Trying quack remedies like antiworm drug for a viral infection is not good medicine. Even if you have Covid, get the Covid vaccine once the acute illness is over. If you have not, get HPV vaccine.

Good evening doctors. My friend had a very serious bout of covid early on, which lasted about 3 weeks. As a result, he is very afraid of getting the vaccine. Would you be able to offer any safe medical suggestions/advice to convince him to get jabbed?
