The emergency use authorization for the vaccines was predicated on there being no effective approved alternatives. If there's an effective approved alternative, the vaccines lose their EUA and are back to being clinical trials until full approval.
So anti-vax people want an effective treatment to be found to invalidate the EUA. Pro-vax people don't want an effective treatment to be found because it would invalidate the EUA.
I am not sure there is any actual proof that if ivermectin was shown to be, e.g., as effective as dexamethasone in reducing covid-19 mortality that it would stop the FDA from issuing a EUA for a vaccine. After all there is a big difference between a vaccine and a treatment anyway.
These are the same doctors that recommended the use of corticosteroids when everyone else was recommending against it.
These are the same doctors that recommended anti-coagulation treatment when everyone else was recommending against it.
These are the same doctors that identified airborne transmission of disease, the WHO is only starting to acknowledge it more than a year later.
They were ridiculed and criticised at the time for things that are now standard of care, and proved right time and time again.
They are the same doctors that are now recommending Ivermectin, and are now being censored (e.g. senate hearing removed from YouTube) and labelled as spreading medical misinformation.
Dr. Pierre Kory also testified multiple times to the senate.
He published multiple studies on the matter.
If they get it right again and again it's because they follow the data, and have actual expertise in the matter.
That said, the WHO reputation is becoming more and more tarnished day by day. That's why more and more countries are starting to ignore the WHO, and with great results.

This seems highly unlikely. Do you have a reputable source for this, because thus far I’ve only seen it as a conspiratorial anti-vax talking point.
Politicians talking about "getting everyone medicated (or vaccinated) as soon as possible" with anything that doesn't have long-term studies should be worrying to all. And the fact that some SV companies will not allow this discourse to happen should be even more so.
Wanna know what does have high risk for long term side effects? COVID.
