The research team of Monash University in Melbourne, Australia found that an anti-parasitic drug, Ivermectin, can effectively inhibit the new COVID-19 virus in the laboratory culture and completely eliminate it within 2 days. virus.

This research by the Monash University Biomedical Exploration Institute (BDI) and the Peter Doherty Institute for Infection and Immunity found that antiparasitic drugs commonly used to treat head lice "Vermectin" (avermectin, Ivermectin) can inhibit the growth of new coronavirus in cell culture. Relevant conclusions have been published in "Antiviral Research" (Antiviral Research) magazine, which has aroused concern and heated discussion from all walks of life.

Dr. Kylie Wagstaff, who led the research, pointed out that scientists found that only one dose of the drug can clear the ribonucleic acid (RNA) of the new coronary pneumonia virus within 48 hours, even within 24 hours. The amount of viral RNA will also be significantly reduced.

Dr. Vaegstaff emphasized that this is a very early test result, and that the research was done in the laboratory, whether the drug has the same effect in the human body has yet to be confirmed. Therefore, the next stage of the study will determine the appropriate dose for human use to ensure that the dose outside the laboratory is safe for humans. It will enter the human experiment within 1 month at the earliest, but it may take some time before it is widely used.

"Ivermectin" is an antiparasitic drug approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and can effectively resist viruses including HIV, dengue fever, influenza and Zika in vitro.
