"Scientists have speculated that the disproportionately high toll from the virus suffered by people from black, Asian and minority ethnic communities may be partly down to endemic low levels of vitamin D."

I have no doubt vitamin D is beneficial, but the sentence above couldn't be more weak related to Covid19.

"One of the studies understood to be under consideration by health officials is an analysis by Ben Gurion University, involving around 1.3 million participants, which suggested that vitamin D supplementation can cut the risk of death from Covid-19 in some groups by as much as half."

This is much more credible.

"The Israeli team also came across findings appearing to suggest that vitamin D taken in liquid form, rather than tablets, produced the protective effect."

Liquid form? Does that include gel caps, which is how I see most vitamin D supplements? I'm going to believe that it does. I'm not aware of a highly effective liquid form, but I'm sure it's out there. Cod liver oil?
