As the OP of the original 'Covid' thread, I fully understood why it was locked.
With this thread I am not trying to replace the original and I am absolutely sure that, if this one goes the same way as the last, it too, will be closed, and fast.
In saw this on another forum and it got me thinking.
I take Vit D3 suppliment during the Autumn and Winter; 4000iu's a day;
Dr David Grimes is a retired consultant from Blackburn hospitals who in 30 year career treated thousands of cases of severe D3 deficiency. He is outspoken in his condemnation of the lack of action to embrace D3 for covid-19. His latest blog analyses data from Israel that clearly show serum 25(OH))D levels below 50 nmol/L risk severe C-19 and death. Covid-19 and Vitamin D: strong evidence of benefit from Israel Half the UK population are below 50 in winter.
Sad to see D3 continuing to be ignored. But ignorance or ignoring is surely by now close to being a dereliction of duty by SAGE and numerous professors of PH, epidemiology and virologists.
At the grassroots level the D3 mssg appears to be getting out. City Assays who provide a £30 postal service for measuring 25(OH)D at home warn of a two-week delay in delivering results.
