No, he was not right. The correct interpretation is, "where parasite infections are endemic, treat that and your health will benefit." And, wear your mask.

Nobody "dogmatically hates the drug". It is an excellent treatment for parasites, cheap and well-tolerated as parasite treatments go.

Many have reason to hate people who advocate for dosing with anti-parasite drugs instead of getting vaccinated, because it makes people die. Many people have family who were not protected, and died, unnecessarily. I am not among those. But my brother rejected vaccination, and his wife and kids all got COVID. (He was away.)

Yeah, the vaccine or therapeutics and nothing in between people like you aren’t helping anyone.
