This is only one of dozens of articles linking Vitamin D deficiency with influenza.

Thought strictly anecdotal, I started taking a vitamin D3 about a 18 months ago, I have not been sick even once, not even a sniffle.

I was and had been taking Vitamin D3 when I came down with this superbug.

Same here. I started Vitamin D last week. Nary a sniffle yet.

We have been taking Vitamin D3 religiously for well over a year as well. Went all winter without getting sick. I’m always saying, “did you take your D3 today?” But it didn’t stop this...we all got sick, my daughter very sick, and it lingers. I still definitely believe in the Vitamin D3, but it’s disconcerting when something like this comes along.

You will not get the flu if you get tested for vitamin d, and thereafter get your D3 levels up to over 60. It takes a different amount of supplementation for each of us to get our levels of d3 up to a therapeutic level. You need to keep getting tested until you find what you need to take. But you will not get sick even after exposed. Period.

Though strickly anecdotal, I am at 16 months and counting.
