COVID-19: Ivermectin, virus-suppressing effect: Dr. Kylie Wagstaf, Monash University

COVID-19:

A new coronavirus infection is spreading around the world.

An Australian university on Tuesday announced that Ivermectin was effective in controlling the novel coronavirus.

Antiparasitic drug: “ivermectin”

Originally, it is a remedy for parasite infections such as head lice.

A research team from Monash University in Melbourne, Southeast Australia, has announced this effect.

According to the results of the experiment, the antiparasitic drug “ivermectin” was effective in suppressing the novel coronavirus.

“A single dose of ivermectin was able to stop the replication of the novel coronavirus in less than 48 hours.” (Dr. Kyrie Wagstaf, Monash University)

What is “ivermectin”:

A Nobel Prize in Medicine and Physiology was awarded in 2015 by Satoshi Omura and Special Emeritus Professor at Kitasato University in Japan.

Developed from actinomycetes and used to treat 300 million people annually.

It has been used in Australia for more than 30 years.

Monash University will conduct clinical trials of ivermectin in the future and hope to apply it as a new coronavirus treatment as soon as possible.
