The Uttarakhand government has announced that Ivermectin tablets will be
distributed among the citizens of the state to prevent the spread of Covid-19.
The Uttarakhand government will be distributing Ivermectin, an antiparasitic
drug, among the residents of the state as a preventive medicine against the
spread of Covid-19, a senior official said.

issued similar directions.
The decision was taken on the recommendation of the state-level clinical
technical committee, an order issued by Chief Secretary Om Prakash to all
district magistrates said.
