Ivermectin isn’t a cancer miracle drug, but influencers claim otherwise. Good science takes time.

A recent study on ivermectin, an animal deworming drug, sparked renewed interest on social media despite lacking evidence for its use in cancer treatment. This study was downloaded over 85,000 times before its official release, highlighting the influence of social media in shaping public perception about medical treatments. It's important to remember that good science takes time, and claims of miracle cures often overlook rigorous testing and peer review. This situation underscores the need for critical thinking and reliance on established medical research rather than anecdotal social media trends.
