Have you any information regarding those who've had a bad reaction to Ivermectin? I would love to read about it.
I have two friends who've taken it, and both like to describe it as a wonder drug of sorts.
All the literature I've read about the drug says it is well tolerated by humans.

It's not a safety issue for most people it will be perfectly safe taking it if you get covid. The issue is long term use it has never been approved for long-term use. There is a study done with rabbits that indeed showed continual use can cause hepatitis. But no study has been done on humans. Though cases were reported out of Africa Ivermectin
is used for mass treatment against onchocerciasis. However, a case namely 23 cases would probably not have been recognized in an area in Central Africa, where liver function tests are not routinely carried out, especially in the absence of jaundice. Furthermore, in a place where viral hepatitis is common, suspicion of drug-induced hepatitis would be rather low.
Without a study, we have no true numbers for drug-induced hepatitis but we know it occurs with long-term use. It was supposed to be used to kill the parasites then you stop taking it. Using it long-term like they did to stop the spread of mites might have health risks.
But i'd recommend against long-term use since it doesn't appear to be statistically different from people not taking it acquiring the virus. The only benefit in studies is they think it may help reduce the viral load when you are infected with covid on the average recovered 1 to two days quicker. Further studies are still ongoing

Sorry no. I have nothing beyond rather simple internet search. Finding individual 'reports' seems difficult.
Quite a lot of effects, side-effects, toxicity, and such, But, in the end; Ivermectin remains well tolerated by Humans.
I'm not sure I would call it a wonder drug, but it does seem to be a viable alternative to the vaxx, at least over the short term. One of the issues I see is kind of like a problem with the vaxx; no long term use data. there doesn't seem to be any long term use studies on Ivermectin, so taking it as a prophylactic for long periods, may not be so good. For now; "well tolerated" seems way better than "kind of" tolerated.
Since this whole vaccine 'thing' is little more than a "rushed" engineering project, perhaps with Ivermectin we can make it to vaxx/2.0 (you know, the one that will actually be SAFE and effective). Perhaps one that doesn't allow the virus to spread via unconscious vaxxed individuals.

If this stuff did any good the people who make it would be fighting hand over fist to get it used because of the huge amount of money they would make.

If you choose to take risks so be it that's your choice I just find it ironic people are willing to take medication not designed to treat covid.

I don't know about that. As far as I know, Ivermectin is out of patent, meaning that anyone can make it. Big Pharma would have to spend millions on research and production, only to have smaller companies produce generic versions of the drug for a much lower price. Also, they would have to pull the enormous amount of Ivermectin from farm and pet supply chains, because those of us who are smart enough would just buy it from them. They would have no control over the market, and thus it's not worth their time or resources. The "vaccine" is completely under their control - the pricing, what's in it, who can produce it, etc. etc.

Hi, there are many, many repurposed, out-of-patent drugs being used for several ailments. A remedy does not need to be designed specifically for one particular type of viral infection. I think there are people who would like us to believe this, but it goes against how the body, and nature, works.
I've recently learned about a theory that many, many diseases are caused by the body's reaction to parasitic colonies that have been thriving in our toxic junk food and refined sugar-filled bodies. In particular, viral infections and auto-immune diseases. The latter being caused by the incessant over-work of our immune systems trying to manage these parasite colonies over years and years. Super interesting stuff.

Honestly, I wouldn't recommend any medication for long use.

India saw a dramatic fall in cases after the ICMR and AIIMS added Ivermectin to their protocols on April 20, 2021. Daily COVID-19 cases, which peaked at 414,188, are now down to 84,332, representing a drop of 80% overall in the country of India.
How much clearer does it have to get FFS you filthy murdering pricks.
What seemed to be an impending humanitarian crisis at the end of April has now been brought under control, not with mass vaccination, but instead with an inexpensive repurposed drug, Ivermectin.
Those Indian states that adopted more aggressive Ivermectin policies saw their cases fall far more than 80%,
Uttar Pradesh - down 98% (37,944 to 596)
Uttarakhand - down 97% (9642 to 287)
Goa - down 90% (4195 to 423).
Delhi - down 99% drop (28,395 to 238) Deaths down by 92%
Tamil Nadu, which publicly banned Ivermectin, saw their cases rise to the highest in India, and they continued setting state records until May 21, 2021, when they peaked at 36,184.
On June 9, Tamil Nadu, with a population less than 4.9% of India's, accounted for almost 20% of all of India's 2,177 June 9 death toll. By contrast, Uttar Pradesh which is on Ivermectin, with 204 million people, three times that of Tamil Nadu, saw a mere 91 deaths, less than 1/4 of Tamil Nadu.
How much more data do you want?
And then throw in the reality that the scary delta cv19 has the lowest mortality of any other variant. And falls in line with just about every other virus of this kind, more contagious less deadly.
And heres one source for that claim too, I could go on .....

What's unclear to me is whether ivermectin is given prophylactically, iinstead of vaccination - that is, it's most often used for people who've already contracted the infection.
So, logically, it seems its advertised primary effect wouldn't be in reducing case numbers, (except as a 2nd order effect), but instead improves outcomes (the MOA seems to be to reduce viral replication and inflammation - which would reduce the complications of cases, but again, wouldn't affect actual case counts if not given prophylactically)
So, the idea that it's responsible for a miraculous reduction in case counts seems like it may be a fallacy.
Purely anecdotal, but I have colleagues and friends in India and many of them received vaccinations beginning in late-May as arranged by their US employers. Any reduction in case numbers have to consider vaccinations as a contributing factor.
