Sorry to hear that. I hope it’s (-). We’ve had two we know who passed last month from COVID. They were over the COVID, but they never recovered from the damage to their lungs.

Yup, vitamin D rec. is low, I believe to discourage people from overdosing and getting calcium metabolism dysfunction. Agree, I actually take 5000 IU/day

No symptoms, don’t feel a damn thing.

My cousin and her husband both caught it recently. In his 80s, her husband was taking 50,000 IU once a week in a single dosage for some other ailment he had. He didn’t get that sick. The wife, about five years younger, died about three weeks after catching it.

Are you experiencing a loss of smell or taste? That’s pretty much a sure sign.

Nope, tasting and smelling just fine. 40% of + healthcare workers are asymptomatic.

You should research getting some copper in there.

About 1 mg copper for every 8 mg of zinc.

That's great! My wife and I have either had it and didn't know it or have both been able to avoid it. We see the grandkids regularly; some have returned to school. We avoid visiting for about a week if someone is down with something.

Our youngest grandchild was recently down with a fever and throwing up after her family visited Dallas, but has tested negative for everything, probably just a stomach bug.

And the only way to know is a blood test.

When I was a kid, my grandparents kept a galvanized (zinc) bucket of drawn well water on the back porch with a "dipper" inside for anyone who thirsted to use.

It was some of the best tasting water ever to a kid who played none stop under a hot summer sun. I didn't know it back then, but now that I think about it,

I'm certain zinc leaching into the water aided by a galvanic process with the aluminum dipper in slightly mineralized water improved the taste. It must have also added to my body's immunity because I rarely got sick.

How does this [zinc VS Covid] comport with “must-have HCQ” storyline...?

I take 5,000 D3 twice a day (so, 10,000 daily). I have for years.

HCQ is (among other things) a zinc ionophor. It moves zinc into the cells.

Most of us take zinc with quercitin, which is also a zinc ionophor.

Sorry, meant that zink + HCQ is the much touted anticovid fixall. So zinc alone may be the best preventative.... Since HCQ is playing no part in this study !

Yes.

Perhaps some people naturally absorb more zinc into cells than others.
Perhaps adding a zinc ionophore may have improved things further...

Guess we will never know.

Good info about zinc in Campbell’s video linked above, if you haven’t watched it.

Vitamin K2 is the vitamin associated with getting the calcium into the right places. It is a fat-soluble vitamin. Found in butter from grass fed cows, eggs, hard cheeses some fermented foods.

Vitamin K1 is the one most associated with blood clotting, and is found in vegetables like spinach.

Source: Vitamin k2 and the Calcium Paradox-How a little known vitamin could save your life (an interesting book that I read):

From the Amazon description:

“The secret to avoiding calcium-related osteoporosis and atherosclerosis While millions of people take calcium and Vitamin D supplements thinking they’re helping their bones, the truth is, without the addition of Vitamin K2, such a health regimen could prove dangerous.

Without Vitamin K2, the body cannot direct calcium to the bones where it’s needed; instead, the calcium resides in soft tissue (like the arteries)—leading to a combination of osteoporosis and atherosclerosis, or the dreaded “calcium paradox.”
