The Deputy Health Minister I said the ministry's clinical trials concluded that other than giving patients an upset stomach, there were no significant differences between those given Ivermectin and those treated using Covid-19 standard care treatment.
Dr Noor Azmi informed the House that Malaysia's findings on the effectiveness of Ivermectin in preventing serious Covid-19 cases following recent clinical trials would be published in medical peer-reviewed journals. "We will be carrying out a second clinical trial on Ivermectin involving close contacts next month once approval is given,” said Dr Noor Azmi.
Meanwhile, Dr Noor Azmi informed the House that the Health Ministry has agreed to purchase the world's first Covid-19 antiviral pill for use in Malaysia.
This may be true but nowadays, and sadly so, our Ministers have very little credibility and trust
