MPs pushing for ivermectin in Parli today:

1) Sg Buloh (off label use for all doctors so they can prescribe w/o threat of misconduct, says no side effects, ppl dying)
2) Shah Alam (no side effects, ppl die while waiting for RCT)
3) Bayan Baru (ask minister to overrule NPRA)

4) Kota Raja (claims India berjaya because of ivermectin, yg lebih murah dr vaksin)

Others who appear to support but didnt have chance to speak:
- Selayang
- Sg Petani
- Wangsa Maju
- Batu

You can view all but Kota Raja here, around 2:46:59 onwards.

Kota Raja can be viewed here 👇at around 2:19:53.

It follows a reply on this by Kuala Selangor at around 2:21:00.

(K Sgor said gold standard to prove efficacy is double blind RCT, but he knows some GPs use it for anti-inflammatory properties)

There is a strong lobby for this drug. Proponents in M'sia are influencers in politics, consumer NGOs, holistic/complementary medicine, corporate, academia etc.

They mostly band under the Malaysian Alliance For Effective Covid Control (which is basically a pro-ivermectin group)

*Kota Raja's question is followed by Kuala Selangor's reply.

(Sentence construction wasn't clear earlier)

There is actually at least one non-PH MP who is fairly pro-ivermectin but he didn't join in just now, so can't be included in the list.

Perhaps next time.
