Please, just tell me how much D3 take, and how much is too much.

A person would have to try very hard to achieve vitamin D toxicity. Many people take 10,000 IU each day for months without any issues.
Your best bet is to take the amount you are comfortable with and have your vitamin D checked periodically with a blood test. Your target vitamin D level should be what is called "optimal" (i.e. at the high end of the normal range.)
Several years ago I began taking 5000 IU daily, but after my blood test showed that I was barely in the normal range, I upped it to 10,000 IU. That was many months ago.
When the mask nonsense blows over, I will have my blood checked again. I am hoping to find it "optimal".

I like the University of Eastern Virginia Medical School
Critical Care COVID-19 Management Protocol (updated 6-17-2020). But I’m not a doctor.
Your blood D3 level depends on your skin color, latitude, time spent in the sun, use of sunblock, extent of your clothing, elevation, time of year and other factors. You should get your D3 level checked as a starting point.

“Please, just tell me how much D3 take, and how much is too much.”
5000 iu per day worked for me. Everyone is different. So I would start there and then get your blood tested. That dose could be either high or low. You can get quality testing at LEF.org.

Just do an online search for the Vitamin D “Hammer”...
50,000 IUs once or 10,000 IUs twice a day for 2-3 days...I’ve been using this for a couple of years in lieu of a flu shot and have had no flu or colds...YMMV...
Canadian Dr. Schwalfenberg came up with this as a treatment for influenza...Appears it may have efficacy for other viral illnesses(?)...
