    New from me - the evidence for vitamin D supplementation for #COVID19 is, in a word, terrible So why are so many people promoting it? Ping @welovegv @statsepi @sol_orwell @TheSciBabehttps://medium.com/the-method/should-you-take-a-vitamin-d-supplement-for-covid-19-63d922f24953 …

        It’s not a bad thing, in general, just not a solution or replacement for distance and hygiene.

        Good article. You may be interested in this RCT published last year which is the largest and best quality to date. https://academic.oup.com/cid/advance-article-abstract/doi/10.1093/cid/ciz801/5550911?redirectedFrom=fulltext … There are at least 7 ongoing trials of Vit D and Covid-19, one of which will report in July.

        https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.04.29.20084277v1 … That study doesn't say anything about vitamin D deficiency not being the cause of severe covid. And 2000 IU #VitaminD/day makes the flu extremely unlikely. Just a double blind big study, that you have missed apparently.pic.twitter.com/39eklIJYrn
