Covid-19 and Vitamin D : cases – deaths dissociation in August Dr. David Grimes - blog post
Possible reasons include
- Increased Vitamin D from the sun
- Increased vitamin D sales (25X in Ireland and 30X in UK)
- Virus had mutated
- More people have partial immunity
- Note: A mask appears to allow sampling a small amount of the vurus, and gain some immunity
- Hamsters which wore masks had greatly reduced COVID-19 symptoms when again exposed to COVID-19
- Note: A mask appears to allow sampling a small amount of the vurus, and gain some immunity
- Hospital procedures had greatly improved
Vitamin D Life Items in both categories UV and Virus are listed here:
- COVID and other Virus fought by UV - many studies
- Model discovered: More UV, less COVID (many excellent charts) – Sept 2022
- COVID hospital deaths reduced 2X by 8 days of UVB – pilot RCT May 2022
- UV and COVID: Prevention and perhaps treatment
- 11 percent fewer COVID-19 deaths if lockdowns had allowed sunshine – Nov 2021
- COVID-19 deaths - 30 percent fewer if high UVA (US, etc) – Aug 2021
- 4th highest county in the US has a very low COVID-19 rate (high UV, high vitamin D)
- COVID-19 onset strongly associated with latitude in Europe (Vitamin D)– Jan 21, 2021
- UV provides the best explanation of COVID-19 variation in Italy (74 pcnt) – Nov 2020
- More UVB, less Coronavirus – including SARS-CoV-2 – Aug 2020
- Less COVID-19 at high altitude due to more Vitamin D or other possible reasons – July 2020
- Far fewer COVID-19 deaths in the summer (Europe, Canada)
- High-altitude Cusco, Peru has far lower rate of COVID-19 than others (high UVB and Vitamin D) - June 2020
- Influenza Virus aerosols killed by 10 minutes of sunlight (far faster if use UV-C) – Nov 2019
- Influenza Virus aerosols killed by 10 minutes of sunlight (faster if use UVB, UVCC– Nov 2019
- Ultraviolet light kills cold and flu viruses, and generates Vitamin D in the skin
