UK member of Parliament David Davis has called for vitamin D therapy to be rolled out in British hospitals to fight Covid; citing “The clear relationship between Vitamin D deficiency and Covid mortality. The UK government should increase the dose and availability of free vitamin D to all vulnerable groups. “These approaches will save many thousands of lives; they are overdue and should be started immediately.
my response:
Many covid-19 patients who died, were found to be deficient in Vitamin D.
Studies found that when m/m covid-19 patients in the ER were given Vitamin D early, fewer ended up in the ICU vs m/m patients not given Vitamin D. Thus, reducing the number of deaths. Patients with severe or critical covid-19 did not display any benefit from receiving Vitamin D, no reduction in deaths nor relation to recovery.
