Additional Evidence Supporting the Call for Further Study Into the Role of Vitamin D in COVID-19 Disease Severity

As the evidence mounts, the question I am asking is when will the NIH, WHO, CDC or any organization perform a randomized trial on Vitamin D? Until that occurs we will continue to watch all the other forms of evidence continue to accumulate.

Take home points: most individuals are deficient in this nutrient, and the intervention is a simple cost-effective one that may be pivotal in stopping this worldwide pandemic.
