You might want to sit down before you read this post, as I would hate for you to pass out and hurt yourself. Reuters, yes one in the same, actually published a story yesterday headlined, “Ivermectin shows ‘antiviral effect’ against COVID, Japanese company says.”

Now that you’ve had time to pick up your jaw off the floor, I’ll continue, yes, you DID read that right. Reuters published a pro-Ivermectin story.

According to Reuters, a publicly-traded Japanese pharma company called Kowa reported it has been working with Tokyo’s Kitasato University to test the anti-parasite drug against common Covid variants, and it was seeing positive results in its clinical study.

That’s it. That’s all Reuters has. No other details.

So the question that begs to be asked is, why now? Why publish a nothing-burger story with a big headline suggesting that Ivermectin might actually help? Until ten seconds ago, mentioning anything positive about the drug was expressly forbidden by our media overlords. Given there are loads of ivermectin studies going on all around the planet. Why would they cite this one?

The story still includes the usual downplaying of ivermectin, it mentions their new “whipping boy” Joe Rogan, and that ivermectin hasn’t been approved by any major health agency for Covid treatment. But still. You can’t escape that headline. What’s going on, would love to hear your thoughts, share your comments!
