Vitamin D determines severity in Covid-19 so government advice needs to change

• mr_gibbins 6y ago
  Not sure of the value of this study, the authors sketch out observational evidence only with no medical evidence of a link (correlation != causation).

    The article basically states that and addresses the value aspect. "Whereas there are currently no results from randomised controlled trials to conclusively prove that vitamin D beneficially affects COVID-19 outcomes, there is strong circumstantial evidence of associations between vitamin D and the severity of COVID-19 responses, including death." "Research like this is still exploratory and we need further trials to have concrete evidence on the level of vitamin D that is needed for optimal immune function."

  Observation evidence of the link. No link to the study or data. Quality of these "science" publishing websites is going shit.
