Saginaw Bay Area - Michigan | Yup, seems to be a bit of propaganda there.
"The "kit" which was once widely prescribed (and self-dosed) in Cuiaba, Macapá, Natal, and Manaus, is now being thrown out by the government. "
The "now being thrown out" references this article:
https://congressoemfoco.uol.com.br/legislativo/cpi-da-covid/saude-ad...
From the referenced article, the government indicates:
" Ivermectin and the association of casirivimab + imdevimab do not have evidence that justifies its use in hospitalized patients, and should not be used in this population", says the document."
Correct, all of the data shows if these items are applied once hospitalized, they will not do much good; needs to be done beforehand. So their govt is saying, don't use these if hospitalized. Makes sense. Does NOT say "don't use these at all, these are junk" which the original article implies.
Edit to add another section:
"Brazil suffered some of its worst death rates yet in late 2020 and early 2021, even in heavily ivermectin-dosed areas, as the more transmissible P1, or Gamma, variant spread quickly across the country."
"heavily ivermecting-dosed areas" references this link:
https://www.itajai.sc.gov.br/noticia/25643#.YVufEy1h3T-
Which has zero information on ivermectin usage.
