A large study examining ivermectin against COVID-19 included more participants than was reported in 2023, researchers acknowledged in a new correction.

A U.S. government-funded trial arm examining ivermectin was said to have included 1,206 participants, including 602 who received ivermectin. The actual number of participants was 1,432, with 708 receiving ivermectin, Dr. Suanna Naggie, the study’s lead author, said in a May 16 letter to the editor announcing the correction.
