Respectfully Dr Dre, there’s an awful lot of ad hominem, appeals to authority and straw man in your argument.
You may well end up being correct that Ivermectin in conjunction with zinc and an antibiotic, as stated by Dr Borody, proves to not be effective. Time will tell. I personally think that any potential treatment should be vigorously pursued until it proves to be ineffective. After all, I am continually told this is about “saving lives”.

I pose these questions for the casual reader in response to Dr Dre’s post above:

Is Dr Borody only able to discover treatment protocols in gastroenterology? Are treatment protocols in Respiratory diseases rendered useless if found or administered by doctors from another specialty?
Don’t all treatment protocols begin life by demonstrating efficacy in a petrie dish?
Is the efficacy of a drug determined by which news or opinion outlet gives it airtime? Would the drug work if The Project or CNN interviewed Dr Borody?
