"Vitamin D deficiency (≤12ng/mL or <30nmol/L), is independently associated with COVID-19 mortality after adjustment for visceral fat (epicardial fat thickness) [Epicardial fat covers 80% of the heart surface]. Low 25-OHD may contribute to a pro-inflammatory and pro-thrombotic state, increasing risk"

Pro lockdown folk appear to have a semi religious belief that lockdowns MUST work, because this is a human contact transmitted infection & lockdown reduces average number of contacts.
I’ve been astonished by the number of people who uncritically accept this.
Of course, what matters is not the number of contacts, but the number of contacts which lead to INFECTION.
Now, this pivots on density of infectious individuals. I don’t accept that transmission of infective levels of virus occurs from people without symptoms, not at any frequency with which we need to be concerned.
Transmission is also far lower outside with massive air dilution than inside in still rebreathed air.
Consider the phenotype of a person infected with virus, but who has no symptoms. Because symptoms are a consequence of either substantial virus pathology in lungs & elsewhere, or of the body’s response to invasion, its logical to expect INFECTIOUS people have much virus in their airways also have SYMPTOMS. Not saying 100% match, but in the vast majority of infectious individuals, they will feel unwell. They’re much less likely to be walking around & able to bump into susceptible people.
In contrast, consider institutions. Hospitals & care homes are in contrast, with large numbers of people & patients especially & from time to time, residents, are there because they’re not only symptomatic, but ill, often seriously ill.
In short, I believe the virus was never anywhere near as prevalent in the community as in institutions. And that’s why lockdown did little except to damage society & the economy. lockdown did little to reduce INFECTIOUS contacts. Reduction in contacts which were most unlikely to lead to infection was an illogical step to have taken.
In parallel to this logical argument we have the empirical evidence that the bulk of infections were acquired in institutions & not random contacts in the community.
This isn’t a new concept, either: both SARS & MERS are considered largely as infectious diseases of INSTITUTIONS. Not the community.
I hope I’ve acknowledged the logical approach outlined by those favouring lockdown & believing it MUST work, while providing a coherent & internally consistent explanation why it is in fact not true. My explanation tallies with the great bulk of international literature in this point, that indiscriminate lockdowns are not associated with lower mortality, either of deaths attributed to Covid19 or all causes mortality.
We must not make this mistake again.
Best wishes,
Mike

VITAMIN D3 "Vitamin D3 is a secosteroid hormone produced in the skin in amounts estimated up to 25,000 international units (IUs) a day by the action of UVB radiation on 7-dehydrocholesterol. Vitamin D deficiency is common due to both lack of adequate sun exposure to the skin, and because vitamin D is present in very few food sources. Deficiency is strongly linked to increased risk for a multitude of diseases, several of which have historically been shown to improve dramatically with either adequate UVB exposure to the skin, or to oral or topical supplementation with vitamin D. These diseases include asthma, psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, rickets and tuberculosis. All patients in our hospital have been routinely screened on admission for vitamin D deficiency since July 2011, and offered supplementation to either correct or prevent deficiency. During this time, we have admitted over 4700 patients, the vast majority of whom agreed to supplementation with either 5000 or 10,000 IUs/day. Due to disease concerns, a few agreed to larger amounts, ranging from 20,000 to 50,000 IUs/day. There have been no cases of vitamin D3 induced hypercalcemia or any adverse events attributable to vitamin D3 supplementation in any patient...In summary, long-term supplementation with vitamin D3 in doses ranging from 5000 to 50,000 IUs/day appears to be safe."

I think SARSCoV2 persists in the body, Nicola Bidoli calls it parasitic. I can think of two ways in which it can persist:
1 It continues replicating in the human bacterial microbiome, but when immune defenses are working well other bacteria in the microbiome keep it in check.
2 It is a retrovirus, or parts of it are. It persists in human cells but significant replication only occurs when immune defenses are down.
I think that both options are possible, as well as the possibility that both are true.
What do you think? How do you tell a retrovirus from a non retrovirus in terms of its microbiological properties and composition?
We already know there is research proving that SARSCoV2 replicates in the bacterial microbiome (Brogna et al, 2020). Of course what defends in you in both cases are:
1 Vitamin D 2,000 IUs per day minimum, 4,000 IUs for adults of normal size
2 Macrolides, bacteriostatics, antibiotics at the signs of high fever (over 38.8,°C approx)
