Health Nerd added,
The study is here: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0960076020302764?via%3Dihub#tbl0015 … Already up to an Altmetric of 2,543, the highest ever for the journal it's inpic.twitter.com/9GGjp7q8Gg
The authors randomly assigned people to either get treatment as usual or calcifediol, which is a product of vitamin D metabolism, and then checked how many went into ICU or died in the two groups
The findings were, to put it bluntly, astonishing Of the intervention group, only 1/50 patients went to ICU Of the control, 13/50 went to ICU, 2 of whom died So calcifediol reduced ICU admission by ~90%!pic.twitter.com/h9hSt4cL11
