Ivermectin for Covid-19

Discussion of scholar papers published until 10 July, 2020, on Ivermectin, and of some news that we can find about its use for Covid-19. A list of clinical trials is also given. For what concerns scholar papers, we report among them a preprint posted on 10 June in MedRχiv, which concludes that Ivermectin was associated with lower mortality during treatment of Covid-19. We report also the preprint, posted on 8 July in MedRχiv too, showing the result of a clinical trial. The preprint tells, in its conclusions that add-on use of Ivermectin is giving better results when compared to controls, in particular a significant shorter hospital stay. From news, we consider in particular the case of Iquitos, capital city of the Loreto Region in Peru, where, by May 25, Covid-19 cases and deaths had dropped notably, as reported on the web. The formulation of ivermectin used in Peru is also discussed, in particular that of the oral solution disclosed by the Peruvian Government.Before reading this work, please consider that I am not a physician. I do not suggest the use of ivermectin. I am not touting this drug. This analysis of publications and news about ivermectin is made in the framework of a wider investigation about information concerning drugs used for Covid-19
