Yes
Personally, I think that’s highly likely.
The whole extended family has been on Vitamin D and zinc since March 2020, with many cases of Covid but none serious - save one, who already had severe degenerative lung disease.
Vitamin D deficiency is very bad for overall health. Certainly some lives would have been saved. Half? Who knows.
Uh for starters WHAT is the actual number of “ Covid deaths”?
Getting Covid early on...pushing herd immunity...would have been the best thing...as soon as we knew some stats on kids etc.. We shut people in when we should have gotten them out and about....
I suspect it would have been far more than half.
your body produces all you need if you get a moderate amount of sunlight.
Covid lockdowns would of kept people inside more and created a vitamin D deficit which would of made catching Covid even worse for most people.
The lockdowns were a 100% total cluster
If in the right dosage and plant-based vitamin D? More than half.
The folks with severe digestive issues unable to absorb vitamins would not have been helped (leaky gut, Crohn’s, etc).
Would Vitamin D Have Saved Half of COVID Deaths?

How would it have prevented the motorcycle crashes?
D3. I take it evert day. Not vaxxex, not had the akung Flu and my IGG antibody results were off the charts
D3, zinc and Ivermectin if needed
I’ve been taking D3 for years. And it’s been years since I was sick. 5,000 iu/day was my dosage. Increased to 10,000 iu/day during the CCP virus crisis. Now back to 5,000 iu/day.
Along with zinc, IVM, vit C, etc.
Joseph Mercola has accumulated a net personal wealth of over $100 million by peddling quack remedies and herbal supplements online. Mercola has also donated more than $2.9 million to the National Vaccine Information Center — one of the most prominent US anti-vaccine groups — over the past decade.
Mercola maintains two huge Facebook pages, one in English with almost 1.8 million followers and a Spanish-language version with more than 1 million, which have been used as a minefield of false claims.
The FDA has warned Mercola that it’s against the law to market dietary supplements as a treatment or cure for any disease, let alone COVID-19.
The authors of Mercola’s four meta-analyses were candid about the quality of the observational studies they were analyzing. They variously pointed out that the studies present “a high risk of bias,” their quality was “medium to low,” the results may simply mean that vitamin D is a marker of good health, rather than being a cause of good health, and that the results should be interpreted “cautiously.”
Meanwhile, Researchers in the United Kingdom randomly assigned over 6,000 volunteers to either daily doses of 3,200 IU or 800 IU of vitamin D or no supplementation. After 6 months, vitamin D takers were just as likely to catch COVID-19 as the no-supplementation group, regardless of dose. It supports idea that the results of the meta-analyses studies can be false.
This thread on the topic of Vitamin D caught my attention - not about covid, but an interaction between the vitamin D and carbamazepine - one of the seizure drugs I used to be on for 20 years.
It is suspected that carbamazepine has a potential to have long-term side effects of decreasing the body’s level of vitamin D. Vitamin D deficiency is frequently cited as a possible cause of decrease in bone mineral density. I can’t prove it, but this could explain why I have arthritis today. IMHO, my blood should have been regularly checked for Vit D, and it wasn’t.
I heard studies indicate 20% but whatever the number, it’s significant but there’s no money in it.
