It's a great old-school anti-parasitic, and can be given for a wide range of off-shelf illnesses. Some studies show efficacy with COVID, though the data isn't super strong. I see it as "might help, can't hurt."

There are a lot of great recommendations for trauma kits. I carry one in my car, but I will also echo the importance of basic first aid supplies “boo-boo kit”. You are far more likely to experience a minor wound that does not need a TQ. So having a basic first aid kit for you and your family is a great starting point.
Things like:
- various sizes of band aids
- non adherent pads (different sizes)
- antibiotic ointment
- steri strips
- ace wraps
- basic OTC’s
I know there is a lot more items to consider. But starting with the basics and building from there is a great way to go.
