A reply from a friend on Covid and the vaccine forum, is as follows. Re Ivermectin and COPD and other lung diseases.
"Since it has virtually no side effects what is there to lose trying it?
It has a remarkable and prompt effect in raising the blood oxygen levels when the lungs are congested from a viral infection so it sounds worth trying."
So I reckon that @NoBoDe has nothing to lose and some possibilities to gain, by taking Ivermectin. Good luck my friend, you are a smart man and can investigate this for yourself xx
