Sadly PubMed is no longer a reliable source of information
Sadly PubMed is no longer a reliable source of information unless rigorously checked first by the readers.In response to: The inclusion of predatory journals in databases is problematic because it means that they can inflate author metrics, say physiologists Andrea Manca and Franca Deriu at the University of Sassari in Italy, who worked on the study identifying predatory journals in PubMed. This can make a difference in countries where career advancement strictly depends on these metrics.
In 2017, in an effort to address the problem of predatory journals, PubMed issued guidelines on the titles authors should publish in. But keeping track of these titles is difficult, say Manca and Deriu. “Predatory journals are continuously changing names and publishers, and keep growing in number as we speak.”

Predatory articles regarding the covid vaccine and Ivermectin are rife in Pubmed publications.
The ONLY way to find out if Ivermectin is a safe and useful medicine for COVID is to ask a medical expert.

On a great Many subjects - There's too Much reliance on "ask an expert".
The publisher Elsevier is just a huge money making machine that many researchers hate with a vengeance. There's no doubt in my mind that them blocking Journals from SCOPUS is simply an act of blocking competing scientific journals.
Extreme politics is something I try hard to steer far away from due to the lack of real credibility.
As long as the US and EU top medical institutions say ivermectin is not recommended as a valid cure for covid I will continue to debunk any and all posts that try to spread fake news.
Asking an expert in a particular field has always been the correct way to find out truthful information.
The problem is that many "Experts" are not actually the expert you think they are, people lie!
They are everywhere, but those with half a brain can distinguish between the inflated ego BSers and those with actual knowledge.
so is the Guardian to be held to the same account as you hold other papers or because of your communist anti Trump leanings you accept it . You wear a mask to cover your two faces
2% of the total reports show death after having the vaccine, but there will always be deaths, to suggest the vaccine caused the death is manipulating the information to follow an agenda.
So far there has been NO CORRELATION between deaths and the vaccine.
Even if the 2% was shown to be definitely caused by the vaccine, that percentage shows the risk of dying is still far greater if you get covid 10, the benefits the vaccine gives far outways the harm Covid causes.
Getting vaccinated also greatly reduces infecting others, especially those with a low immunity.
It's all LIES!
Had these vermin been forced t get vaccinated at the beginning of this year the world would have had the virus under control by now and we could ALL go back to a normal life.
The vermin are to blame for the increase in infections and the deaths relate to those infected.
