Re:Vitamin D insufficiency may account for almost 90% of Covid-19 deaths

There are several studies where vitamin D works (amazingly well), and one study where it does not.
But in the study where it does not work, it's an oral supplement given after hospitalization. Oral vitamin D takes a while to elevate blood levels so the fact that such regimen doesn't work, doesn't prove much.

That's an interesting perspective, but wouldn't your theory imply your kids would also be turned off by sanitized fairy tales? Or do they like those?
I'm comparing with my own experience. I loved (modern) fairy tales as a kid, and the world wasn't that different when I grew up.

Let's suppose we rush through a vaccine that turns out to cause fatal complications in 0.01% of the population, and we give it 90% of the population. Congratulations: you just killed more people to date then coronavirus has.
Might wanna check that math, dude.
Even with your preposterously deadly made-up vaccine, you’re only hitting about one month’s worth of COVID deaths.
