re: Study: Vitamin D deficiency found in over 80% of COVID-19 patients

I read about vitamin D in early March so I took 2,600 U.I. for a couple of months. The latest endocrinologist advice says to maintain a D3 blood level between 40-60 ng/ml. I got my level tested--it was 38.5 ng/ml. I read that, on average, a 1,000 U.I. increase in D3 intake raises blood level by 10 ng/ml. I bumped my D3 supplement to 4,800 U.I. Now I should be close to 60 ng/ml.
Given my blood type and overall good health I don't fear COVID. I still wear a mask to protect myself and others.

You say that no doctors advise taking D3 but I've found that many doctors advise doing so. The problem is that the message isn't being sent by the authorities or the MSM. YouTube is full of Docs who say up your D.

So many jokes to be made with this
YouTube us definitely where I go for medical advice. And I’ve been prescribing more D for my wife for years, she just refuses.

Well that's why you need to validate your sources.
For example, there is MedCram
It has provided a lot of information and one of the co-founders (and main presenter) is Dr. Roger Seheult. He's an assistant clinical professor at two California universities, a pulmonologist and critical care doctor who takes care of Covid patients.
There is also Dr. John Campbell
He's a retired nurse teacher and A&E nurse. He goes through the state of the current outbreaks and goes fairly in-depth on studies, vaccines, etc.
There are plenty of qualified people on youtube who put their knowledge and effort out there so people can find relevant information.
