It seems a given that Covid is here to stay, combined with potential super spreaders in the community such as the Free Market at the A&P show grounds , people need to take it seriously.
it appears that scientific research has shown that vitamin deficiency has a strong link between death or serious illness among patients.
"Israel scientists say they have gathered the most convincing evidence to date that increased vitamin D levels can help COVID-19 patients reduce the risk of serious illness or death."
while in the Middle east 4 out of 5 are deficient , " About 5% of adults in New Zealand are deficient in vitamin D. A further 27% are below the recommended blood level of vitamin D. People with darker skin, who spend less time outside or who have health conditions that make it hard to absorb nutrients are more at risk of vitamin D deficiency."
