And Vitamin D.

Trump himself is Vitamin D.

Kidding aside I thought D was mainly for prevention?

Not prevention, maintaining good Vitamin D levels simply makes the virus much less dangerous if you do catch it.

Here's the publication: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0960076020302764?via%3Dihub

Here's an article about the publication: https://covid.us.org/2020/09/03/new-study-vitamin-d-reduces-risk-of-icu-admission-97/

Extremely important: this isn't just Vit. D that's studied, but Calcifediol, a precursor compound to a larger amount of Vit. D compared to other supplements.

The main takeaway is that the Calcifediol treatment reduces ICU admissions. This isn't only COVID-19 prevention, but also easier remission.

But will he disavow the racist vitamin D?

Apparently the virus has mutated, losing the parts that fucks with blood clotting and thus became much less dangerous, according to Prof. Raoult.

Might also explain why the number of deaths remains very low in spite of hundreds of thousands of new infections in France.

Some biologists also say that quick degradation is something that happens with genetically engineered organisms. We don't know how to splice things the way Nature does, so modifications tend to break quickly, unlike naturally evolved organisms, and the virus degrades after a few months.

Just like most stuff from communist China.

No, it was expected that the chinavirus would lose potency over time. Its origin is irrelevant. It's just natural selection that happens with every virus.

A virus strain that is less deadly and more often asymptomatic has much higher changes to spread than a deadly virus strain. Killing the host is not a good thing for the virus.

Yes but it's a matter of speed. The original virus wasn't very deadly to begin with. That means it wasn't seeing much selection pressure from killing its hosts too quickly. On the other hand, it makes sense that an artificially spliced virus is not fully adapted and would rapidly evolve before starting to stabilize.

That sounds like vitalism. I prefer to subscribe to the "made in China" theory.
