So am very cautious with my expectations.

Key point - a NEW drug vs an in use druf for 4 plus decades. May not work great but does no harm (relative to other options).

And second point on adverse rate - mRNA studies of 40k participants. Ivermectin FDA studies then used in the wild with billions of doses administered so I feel plenty of data there to evaluate.
