If the death rate was reduced due to sun exposure leading to more vitamin D in people's systems, then wouldn't the southern hemisphere show an opposite cycle to the northern hemisphere? I'm not seeing that in the current data.
- pelasaco 6y agoif was just Vitamin D, Brazil wouldn't be among the top 3 countries. Specially the Northeast from Brazil - where you have 365 days/year of Sun - has one of the highest numbers of COVID-19 infections. Unfortunately isn't so easy like that.

Eat Chicken|Beef|Fish daily and run almost 5 days a week in the middle of the day to get maximum sunlight in Southern California. I had a blood test a few weeks ago thinking I was over-doing it on vit. D and guess what, my levels were slightly lower than average(though not deficient). People are not getting enough in general, I would strongly suggest to request a blood test from your Dr. and up your levels via supplements or proper foods/sunlight exposure. I think in general humans are meant to be outside alot and being forced indoors has not been a good thing for us as a species.
