It looks like in London, the sun doesn't go above 50deg except between late April and late Aug, and on the solstice it's only above 50deg between 10:30 and 15:30. Which means for the most part, it that condition only occurs while people are inside the office, and only for half of the year.
- ljosifov 6y agoExactly that. Hence a permanent recommendation by PHE and NICE, that for public health reason, most of UK residents need a supplement. Alas - it is all but forgotten. Mostly acted on for newborns, where the GP surgery, probably reminds the parents or even distribute small bottles of Vitamin D drops. (administered orally) For everyone else, the widespread Vitamin D deficiency, goes virtually unnoticed. It is the default, with no-one pushing for a change. It is a low hanging fruit, wrt Covid-19 and also seasonal flus.
