Public warned against using anti-viral drug

PETALING JAYA: Medical practitioners and members of the public have been warned against using Ivermectin to treat Covid-19 following a clinical study that confirmed its ineffectiveness against the illness.

Malaysian Medical Association (MMA) president Dr Koh Kar Chai said that any attempt to buy Ivermectin over the counter for use in treating Covid-19 would be contravening the law.
