Foamy viruses are a subgenus of retroviruses. The Melbourne ivermectin study used African Green Monkey/humanSLAM cells. McKernan being censored (post #194) because he was getting too close when mentioning ancient retroviruses links to Worobey's two publications on ancient coelacanth viruses and a third by Indian authors:

An endogenous foamy-like viral element in the coelacanth genome - PubMed
Little is known about the origin and long-term evolutionary mode of retroviruses. Retroviruses can integrate into their hosts' genomes, providing a molecular fossil record for studying their deep history. Here we report the discovery of an endogenous foamy virus-like element, which we designate...

Foamy-like endogenous retroviruses are extensive and abundant in teleosts - PubMed
Recent discoveries indicate that the foamy virus (FV) (<i>Spumavirus</i>) ancestor may have been among the first retroviruses to appear during the evolution of vertebrates, demonstrated by foamy endogenous retroviruses present within deeply divergent hosts including mammals, coelacanth, and...

Coelacanth SERINC2 Inhibits HIV-1 Infectivity and Is Counteracted by Envelope Glycoprotein from Foamy Virus - PubMed
<span><i>SERINC5</i> restricts nef-defective HIV-1 by affecting early steps of the virus life cycle. Distantly related retroviruses with a wide host range encode virulent factors in response to challenge by <i>SERINC5</i>. However, the evolutionary origins of this antiretroviral activity, its...
