Ivermectin has come more and more into the spotlight as a possible therapeutic for COVID-19 over the past few months. One question that remains though is how exactly Ivermectin may work in COVID-19? We have covered many possible mechanisms of action in the past (videos linked below). A new study though used computational modeling to explore whether Ivermectin may have direct binding to the spike protein of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Check out the video for all the details on this and more!
