I just want to comment that in addition to the possible inhibition SARS-Cov-2 binding to the ACE2 receptor on the cell, Ivermectin may also function to block several inflammatory pathways in the cell once it has been infected. I'll post the link the article on this at the end of my comment.

Molnupiravir looks to be a protease inhibitor, blocking the cleaving of translated viral polypeptides into functional proteins required for SARS-CoV-2 to replicate successfully. I can see using them in conjunction to good effect for those infected. Prophylactic means to prevent infection are also out there, you just have to look for the articles, some of which data to 2010 and were looking as earlier Coronavirus.
