I have included more references to the thread that many people provided. Thank you. Fixed a few links and tried to clarify a few points people were confused over.

Someone forwarded me a lazy take down on Ivermectin (Not from a PCR expert).
S/He clearly read the Abstract of this small 24 person study which does mislead the average reader into thinking you can't obtain viral inhibition with human doses of IVM.
And while the study didn't find significant differences in the patients that were called positive (they nearly all were), it did see a shift in Viral loads on IVM (orange). Thats a log scale on Y.
So, why does the article tone this observation down? The abstract and conclusion bury this? Read it and decide for yourself but be certain to read the COI section.
Let's look at another slightly larger study in the same Journal.
In this case the authors have internal controls in their PCR.
And they understand p450 genetics enough to know that you shouldn't just measure the oral dose given, but instead measure the plasma level of the drug as some patients clear the drug quickly.
When these variables are controlled for you can see a reduction in viral load. This is a very important metric for the pandemic. If you want to dial down the scariant parade, you need to slow the polymerase or increase its fildelity. Vax programs that don't change viral load...
Invite more viral evolution.
But there is more. If you are a PCR geek that has any experience making reversible terminators you know that PCR signal is going to over estimate infectious viral load particularly when Ivermectin has many modes of action. So, one should confirm.
What is the impact of Ivermectin not just on qPCR signals of the viral RNA but on viability or culturability of the virus? Recall, Not all RNA is full length and when you stall polymerases, your qPCR signal and culture signal can diverge.
I can imagine if you start this study with late treatment, it will be too late to see the difference as once the virus has gone exponential, the drug may not be able to stop it. Apply it early and you are far more likely to see the the polymerae stall.
This review from Trevor Bedford confirms this.
Spike evolution is off the charts.
He is obfuscating the truth by calling it “partial immunity”.
Just say it!
Spike only Vax w/ same CT is Dumb.
Good to see him visualize a world without lockdown.
This charts lay out the Ks/Ka evaluation mentioned above.

🔥Scientific Misconduct and Plagiarism from Dr. Richard Fleming🔥.
The Journal has been made aware of Richard Fleming plagiarizing our primer sequences and not citing them.
I normally wouldn't care. They are open source but the same primer table in @DJSpeicher et al contained the SV40 primer sequences he NEVER used while still claiming SV40 was not detected. He claimed this 3 times but never actually tested for SV40.
Irony.. Fleming was bragging about his work was peer reviewed.
Or Peer stolen, twisted and obfuscated... but to what ends? Who does Fleming work for and did he copy these sequences and refuse to cite the work while spreading non sense about the SV40 sequences?
What are the odds they picked the same primers by chance?
