Well, there are two Spanish studies in which they gave one group of patients calcifediol, which is 25(OH)D3 - a form into which Vitamin D is normally transformed in the liver, and the other group placebo. They compared the two groups and found out that far fewer patients from the calcifediol group had to go to the ICU.

There is also a French study. In a retirement home they gave their clints a big dose of Vitamin D once every few months. Those clients who were given Vitamin D shortly before being infected with Covid had far lower mortality than those who weren’t.

Vitamin D is known to be an immunomodulator. On the one hand, it keeps the immune system prepared (makes it easier for the immune system to produce anti-microbial peptides - cathelicidin and defensins), on the other hand, it prevents the immune system from overreacting - the so-called cytokine storm.

There are also other ways in which Vitamin D may help: it stabilizes the endothelium and downregulates the renin - angiotensin system, which is important because people with cardiovascular diseases are vulnerable to Covid.

"Hmmm, sudden alarming rises in Covid case and hospitalizations in certain states.

Sudden rise in illegal immigrant migrations into the US.

Which states are taking the most illegals?

Which states are experiencing heightened Covid cases?

Enquiring minds want to know. Or is that racist and do I need to report to my re-education camp?


Transporting infected border trespassers to Michigan to build her power base definitely seems like something the gretch would like fund with tax-payer money.

“ with no deaths credited to the vaccines”

Here’s a current thread on the matter...

Saying that it isn’t a vaccine is only playing word games. The CDC defines a vaccine as: “A product that stimulates a person’s immune system to produce immunity to a specific disease, protecting the person from that disease.” The COVID vaccines certainly do that.

If it doesn’t prevent you from catching the “disease”, and it doesn’t prevent you from spreading the “disease”, and if you have about a 99.9% chance of surviving the “disease”, what exactly is the point of the vaccine, and more importantly, why is everyone being coerced into getting it?

The COVID vaccines certainly do that. And, the emerging data demonstrates these vaccines do stop and transmission.

By all accounts surviving a covid infection is a most unpleasant experience. My arm wasn’t even sore following my vaccinations.

If you’re being coerced into taking the vaccine, then you should be able to share with us the date and time you’ve been told to take the vaccine.

We actually know a man in Michigan who has it for the 2nd time. He’s having a much rougher go of it this time.

Precisely!

And, not to mention the UNKNOWN, long-term side effects of these UNPROVEN, EXPERIMENTAL agents.

No thanks.

Seeing the push for these, on this forum, is nothing short of startling.

Not after the past year of people on this forum supporting every ridiculous, tyrannical, idiotic lockdown, mask mandate, and business closure. The push by many here for everyone to rush to get this “vaccine” doesn’t surprise me at all.

The sheer stupidity of people over COVID is amazing. For example: every time I go anywhere - the grocery store, Home Depot, restaurant, wherever - I see people who won’t get out of their car without putting on their stupid mask. And they won’t take it off until they get back into their car (and of course, the real morons wear the mask from the moment they leave their house, until the moment they return, even wearing the mask while driving alone in their car). And yet, these same brain-dead imbeciles will go to a restaurant, wearing their stupid mask from the moment they get out of their car, until they sit down at the table. At that point, they remove their masks, and spend an hour and a half inside, with dozens of <gasp!> maskless strangers. Yet somehow, to these morons, this is logically consistent. Saddest of all, these idiots are the ones driving and supporting all of the COVID nonsense.
