Also I might add it's misleading and disingenuous to call ivermectin a horse dewormer when it is used world wide for human applications. Based on how it was labeled you would think it was ONLY used as a veterinary product and most people wanted that narrative to stick. And it is also known for it's anti-inflammatory properties. Here is a paper on 25 years of the use and efficacy of ivermectin.

Many drugs have off-label uses and because ivermectin was found to have anti-inflammatory properties many doctors were hopeful those properties would aid in dealing with the inflammation caused by covid.
It is easy to see billion dollar drug companies would be opposed to this. It's amazing to me how many people suddenly support drug companies who have had some of largest fines levied against them for unethical business practices and out right fraud.
