I believe it is not ethical to ignore Ivermectin if a study is going to be done. Any such study should achieve the greatest benefit with the lease risk... AKA achieving Grace. Grace being the ability or quality of doing the greatest good with the least effort or while doing the least harm? example of Grace VS pragmatism...: Sisters Hire a Lawyer to SaveTheir Mother from COVID-19 - YouTube — &lt;a rel="nofollow" target="_new" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8MLoyPVWEwA"&gt;www.youtube.com/watch&lt;/a&gt; &amp;nbsp; ...

Both these drugs possess multidisciplinary actions.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Ivermectin showed high binding affinity to the viral S protein as well as the human cell surface receptors ACE-2 and TMPRSS2. In agreement to our findings, ivermectin was found to be docked between the viral spike and the ACE2 receptor (Lehrer and Rheinstein, 2020). The activation of the S protein by TMPRSS2 can make cathepsin L activity and low pH unnecessary for the viral envelope to fuse with the endosomal membrane (Glowacka et al., 2011). The molecular docking of ivermectin with TMPRSS2 suggested an important role of ivermectin in inhibiting the entry of the virus into the host cell, probably by increasing the endosomal pH. Moreover, it efficiently binds to both Mpro and ...&amp;quot;&amp;quot;This or any study putting Humans at risk should involve Ivermectin, in my opinion. ...`1751 chars so, closing The study is unethical in my opinion thanks for asking and blessings chuck&lt;/p&gt;

You could take a couple of weeks&amp;#39; holiday out on Salisbury Plain, have everything looked after, and the chances of actually getting flu were quite low. Many people were in control groups, and it became quite an established way of getting a completely inexpensive holiday, to be paid to be infected with these viruses. So, when that closed in the 1980s, a number of universities started doing their own versions of this, and again, that tradition has continued. We&amp;#39;ve been infecting people with common cold viruses, the rhinoviruses, more recently influenza virus, and a virus that I&amp;#39;ve worked on for about 30 years called respiratory syncytial virus.&amp;quot; &lt;a rel="nofollow" target="_new" href="https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/947441?src=wnl_edit_tpal&amp;amp;uac=116656PT&amp;amp;impID=3252474&amp;amp;faf=1"&gt;www.medscape.com/.../947441&lt;/a&gt; &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This would seem to somewhat disprove the germ theory of disease. At least it is assuming that a person is judged to be infected based on symptoms, and the the above quote is true. It seems to me that the next step would be to created a virus with a radioactive isotope and use that to infect people. I have read that ethics standards prevent deliberately infecting someone with a germ, but I don&amp;#39;t see how this is justified. If a person is willing to be a &amp;quot;guinea pig&amp;quot; to advance human knowledge, then that is their choice.&lt;/p&gt;

But i see in the uk now they are going to have boaster shots ready for september for new strains of this virus no trails needed just get your jab and move on and of course &amp;nbsp;your covid pass will be updated that&amp;#39;s if you are still alive. I&amp;#39;M afraid we could lose this battle unless people wake up and just say enough is enough of this world wide scam which has been blown up to a scale like never before. The powers the governments have at this time they can do what they want as we are now seeing in the uk and in Israeli which is what every country will be like if the people don&amp;#39;t but a stop to this madness i hope we can but it is going to take a very big effort on all fronts and by a lot of people.&lt;/p&gt;
