+ | |||
+ | Results- | ||
+ | |||
+ | * Of the 7,345 cases of COVID-19, 3,034 occurred in non-users, 1,627 in sporadic users, and 289 in strict users, while the remaining cases occurred in the intermediate levels of ivermectin use. Strict users were older (p < 0.0001) and non-significant higher prevalence of type 2 diabetes and hypertension. | ||
+ | * | ||
+ | * | ||
+ | * | ||
+ | * | ||
+ | * | ||
+ | * After Propensity score matching, hospitalization rate was 35% lower among sporadic users than non-users (RR, 0.65; 95%CI, 0.44 – 0.70; p = 0.03). | ||
+ | * | ||
+ | * In propensity score matched groups, multivariate-adjusted mortality rate was 90% lower in strict users compared to non-users (p = 0.003) and 79% lower than in sporadic users (p = 0.05), while sporadic users had a 37% reduction in mortality rate compared to non-users (p = 0.043). | ||
+ | * | ||
+ | * Risk of dying from COVID-19 was 86% lower among strict users than non-users (p = 0.006) and marginally significant, | ||
+ | Conclusion: Non-use of ivermectin was associated with a 10-times increase in mortality risk and 7-times increased risk of dying from COVID-19, compared to strictly regular use of ivermectin in a prospectively collected, strictly controlled population. | ||
+ | |||
+ | A progressive dose-response pattern was observed between level of ivermectin use and level of protection from COVID-19 related outcomes and consistent across different levels of ivermectin use. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The results of this study clearly demonstrate that prophylactic use of ivermectin must be initiated immediately for people in high risk categories in the United States and worldwide. This includes individuals with one or more co-morbidities and the middle aged/ | ||
+ | |||
+ | The CDC chart below for all deaths since the start of the outbreak clearly shows a jump in deaths after 50 years old. | ||
+ | |||
+ | However, as the data for deaths per million per age group is not disclosed, so the age for start of prophylaxis has yet to be determined. | ||
+ | |||
+ | As Omicron has less pathogenicity and slightly different disease profile this too could influence what age prophylaxis treatment should begin. But the data are in, prophylactic use of ivermectin saves lives. | ||
