I read nonsense on using #ivermectin against #covid (of course) #hantavirus (recently) but not against #ebola. I’m wondering why?
Is “it lturns you body into a bag of gunk” too unappealing for marketing snake oil?
Or did I just miss those posts/publications?
Hantaviruses, which belong to the Bunyavirales order, replicate and transcribe their genome in the cytoplasm of infected cells. So Hantavirus already won’t enter the nucleus, and Ivermectin, an anti-parasite substance, won’t do much of anything to a virus.
“…orthomyxoviruses replicate and transcribe their genome within the cell nucleus, whereas bunyavirus genome replication and transcription occur in the cytoplasm.”
