The University of the Free State says it is in the process of preparing a clinical trial protocol to determine the efficacy of Ivermectin in the fight against Covid-19.

This is being handled by FARMOVS, a wholly-owned clinical research company of the university, together with several medical and scientific experts at the university.

“By participating in the preparation of the clinical trial protocol, FARMOVS and the UFS remain supportive of and committed to contributing to the development of treatments and treatment strategies to battle the Covid-19 pandemic,” the university said in a statement. The university statement comes as AfriForum said it had brought an urgent court application against the SA Health Products Regulatory Authority and Dr Zweli Mkhize, minister of health, to ensure that Ivermectin developed for human consumption is available to doctors who want to prescribe it to treat Covid-19.

Are they starting in 2021? Preparing for a clinical trial just sounds so un-urgent.
