Many of the early studies weren’t high quality studies. And as I recall a couple were outright fabricated. It takes time to run randomized prospective studies and those are coming out now.
If we have lots of low quality studies that show Ivermectin works well in populations which probably have high parasite incidence, and not much obvious effect of anything in populations where there aren't many parasites (insert puns here about lawyers and politicians)...
What is the high quality study here to prove?
I don't see why the problem is evidence. AFAIK there seems to just be a shortage of people repeating "the helpful effect is geographically correlated" over and over again. Unless there is evidence of a positive effect that I'm not aware of?
