Vitamin D During Pandemic An Amazing Life Saver

The tireless Dr John Campbell as he talks about one of the first clinical trials evaluating Vitamin D’s efficacy as a covid-19 therapy.

The original video from Dr. Campbell:

Vitamin D has been linked in numerous studies to incredible protection from the worst effects of Covid-19

Once socio economics and pre existing health conditions are controlled for, it is evident that people with darker skin(including Indians in the UK, who make on average 12% more per year than the average Caucasian) suffer significantly more from covid-19 than caucasians.* Darker skin has less ability to process Vitamin D than light skin.

Homeless people are suffering to a far lesser degree than was expected. *it is hypothesized that the homeless are less likely to be vitamin D deficient due to their increased exposure to sunshine.

“Children are more vulnerable to other infections; thus, the important question arises—why are children less susceptible to COVID-19 disease compared with adults?” ~thelancet.com
