Yes
> How exactly is vitamin D deficiency measured and diagnosed?
Usually with a blood test. It's diagnosed because the blood test comes back out of range which is usually below 30 ng/ml for insufficiency, and below 20 for a deficiency.
> How much variance / tolerance is there between people?
The std. deviation is 16.6 ng/ml
> Most importantly does COVID impact Vitamin D levels?
I don't think we know, it's hard to track this. You'd need to follow a huge cohort of people who you test for vitamin d often enough so that while they're getting the infection we see their vitamin d in real time.
