Does vitamin D status impact mortality from SARS-CoV-2 infection?

Marik et al., Med Drug Discov., doi:10.1016/j.medidd.2020.100041, Apr 2020
Vitamin D for COVID-19
8th treatment shown to reduce risk in October 2020, now with p < 0.00000000001 from 138 studies, recognized in 18 countries.
No treatment is 100% effective. Protocols combine treatments.
6,600+ studies for 220+ treatments. c19early.org
Analysis of case fatality rates showing that the CFR was significantly greater for Northern states (>40° latitude) compared to Southern States (6.0% vs. 3.5%, p < 0.001), although there were some exceptions with individual states.
