No one is paying for studies where there is no money to be made later. It's a chicken and egg problem in a way. Ivermectin is cheap and off patent.
A number of public and philanthropic groups write grants. I’ve written grants. And just because a commercial interest funds a study doesn’t mean it’s B.S.
I'm saying that commercial interest is commercial interest so why would it fund a study that isn't commercially viable?
Ivermectin isn't a money maker. It's a life saver. Vaccines and other new solutions are money makers and life savers (they hope)
