Also see this letter by Dr. Gerry Schwalfenberg. It's just an anecdote but his claim of success in treating influenza patients with a "vitamin D hammer" is interesting and should prompt additional research.

Total anecdote, but I’m prescribed 50k IU of Vitamin D 3x weekly.

However, that’s a bit hard to remember so I always have extra on hand. When I have a cold coming on a take a large(r) dose and it certainly seems to help.
