This is anecdotal based on one participant, me; I have taken vitamin D for about 2 years and have not been sick with any respiratory illness including covid-19.
Sounds like Big Pharma continues it’s campaign to demonize vitamins and other nutritional supplements. Can’t have folks staying healthy by taking vitamins, instead of turning to expensive and dangerous artificial Big Pharma medications. Take a look at who PAYS FOR those anti-vitamin ‘research studies’.
Regarding the London study – Read the one response at BMJ embedded referenced. This retired physician points out the control group was not controlled, and so the study’s title is somewhat misleading; there’s the assumption the control group (no baseline vit.D test) had the same D baseline as the test to treat groups, and therefore the control (uncontrolled) then took upon themselves to take vit. D since their end of study D level approach the levels of the dosed groups. Trial was underpowered; and study was not designed to find efficacy of vit. D by the author’s own admission. So keeping to the science, any conclusions as stated in this article above are to be taken with a grain of salt.
