Protective Effect of Vitamin D Supplementation on COVID-19-Related Intensive Care Hospitalization and Mortality: Definitive Evidence from Meta-Analysis and Trial Sequential Analysis (Argano)
current evidence supports the benefits of vitamin D interventions in patients hospitalized with COVID-19 due to the protective effect provided by vitamin D against ICU admission and mortality.
Dr. Ramin Oskoui, cardiologist out of Washington DC (FOXHALL), shared this emerging study with me for debate and I decided it is of enough quality to re-share. Another piece to the puzzle or should we say, an already finished puzzle on the positive and protective effect of vitamin D (D3), and so, just adding extra pieces.

‘Five RCTs were found to be suitable for our analysis. We performed meta-analyses and then TSAs. Vitamin D administration results in a decreased risk of death and ICU admission (standardized mean difference (95% CI): 0.49 (0.34–0.72) and 0.28 (0.20–0.39), respectively).’
When I was hospitalized with Covid pneumonia, along with several meds, I was given vitamins C, D and Zinc. I was also given prescriptions for the vitamins when I was discharged. I have no idea how well it all worked, but I’m still here so......
Dear Dr. Alexander and readers -- there is big news out of Japan. A distinguished professor who is also the director of a major medical research center, has just filed a lawsuit against the Japanese Ministry of Health! https://infogame.substack.com/p/japanese-professor-files-lawsuit Professor Fukushima's lawsuit is demanding all the data Pfizer and Moderna had submitted to Japan's regulatory agency, and he is also demanding FULL DISCLOSURE of all the vaccine contracts, in addition to compensation to the covid vaccine injured.
I would really hope that Dr. Alexander, Dr. McCullough, Dr. Risch, and all the other brilliant investigators can get in touch with Professor Fukushima to assist in any information that may help. Unfortunately there is a big language and cultural barrier between Japan and the world, so certain data that has been covered among the English speaking critics may not have been fully disseminated among their Japanese colleagues.
Similar to the Thailand situation, perhaps this can be another huge domino to fall this year, which is why I hope fruitful international collaboration is possible.
This is the professor's research gate website: https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Masanori-Fukushima He is a professor at Kyoto University so perhaps you can reach him through that as well.
