Florida study Ivermectin misinformation from Kory, Campbell, and Peterson.
A recently published conference abstract of a retrospective observational study (Efimenko et al) has been distorted by Ivermectin advocates into false claims that it provides evidence for efficacy of Ivermectin in Covid-19. The misleading claims have included posts on Twitter by Pierre Kory and Jordan Peterson, and a video from Dr. John Campbell.
The claims by Campbell, Kory, and Peterson have been refuted by the authors of the study themselves, based in Miami. In this video, I'm delighted to have a conversation with Iakov Efimenko, the first author of the study, to discuss how this happened.
Ivermectin has NOT been shown to be beneficial for treatment or prevention of Covid-19
