[English Abstract]
After 12 months of viral circulation, the SARS-CoV-2 has infected millions of people around the world, leaving hundreds of thousands dead. With the lack of effective therapy and vaccination against COVID-19, focusing on the immediate repurposing of existing drugs gives hope of curbing the pandemic. Vitamin D is a possible candidate discussed in a high amount of publications. Randomized clinical trials show that vitamin D supplementation significantly reduces the risk of respiratory infections. There are also many evidences that hypovitaminosis D is an independent (and easily modifiable) risk factor for severe forms of COVID-19 and death. Vitamin D supplementation is a simple, safe and inexpensive measure, which is effective in correcting hypovitaminosis D found in 40-50% of the French population and in more than 80% of adults with COVID-19. In this position paper, we propose simple regimens (adapted to the pharmaceutical forms currently available in France) for vitamin D supplementation in adults with or without COVID-19.

Some recent Annweiler items in Vitamin D Life
Residents of a Nursing Home who choose monthly Vitamin D had 4X fewer COVID-19 deaths – Nov 2, 2020
Hill's Criteria indicates that COVID-19 will be treated by Vitamin D - Annweiler June 8 2020
Is a senior Vitamin D insufficient - a 2 minute questionnaire is 85 percent accurate – Nov 2019
He is running Trial #5
Note: >70% of the RCT using Vitamin D to fight COVID-19 are using
at least 100,000 IU during the first week
Christmas cards sent by the founder of Vitamin D Life had 200,000 IU of Vitamin D
I wanted more of my friends to have quick access to enough vitamin D in case they got COVID-19 symptoms.
Bought on Amazon US: 24 capsules for $15
Amazon US has 10+ suppliers of 50,000 IU bottles
Typically 20 cent per pill
BioTech 50K capsules are preferred by Vitamin D Life
Nanoemulsion forms of Vitamin D appear to be 4X faster if swished in mouth
at getting Vitamin D into the body, so I have used that form when local friends/family appeared to have been getting a COVID-19 infection. 4 times out of 4 the symptoms started to go away in 2 hours after swishing it in the mouth, and were totally gone in 24 hours. I have tried 6 different nanoemulsions (for inhaling), and slightly prefer Nutrasal
Nutrasal - Amazon US
The $24 cost and 4 ounce bottle size made it too expensive to include in my Chrismas cards
I still have 8 bottles of nanoemulsion to give out to friends who appear to be getting COVID-19.
