William Campbell, Ivermectin and Merck Wokeness
Nobel Prize winner William Campbell, a co-discoverer of Ivermectin, expressed frustration over Merck's public denigration of the drug for COVID-19 use. While Ivermectin is a generic drug derived from Japanese soil, Merck's corporate website now focuses heavily on ESG goals and social justice rather than pharmaceutical innovation. The company's stance against its own historic product is seen as a move to protect newer, more profitable treatments.
