Emerging role of vitamin D in the prevention of COVID-19 by Prof. Sunil Wimalawansa 110 minute
Dr. Wimalawansa has routinely given 200,000 IU Vitamin D loading dose to all of his patients since 2000
All this reported data was based on either hospital or sometimes from quarantine centers. So, lesser is the number of testing carried out lesser is the diagnosis of COVID, therefore the reported death rates are so low. In fact, until end of October, Sri Lanka for example, did not carry out COVID-19 testing in the elderly, most of the elderly dying or people who died in, especially in the peripheral hospital. So none of them were included in those statistic. Fortunately, that has changed that attitude from end of October, and therefore you can see that the rate has gone up quite a bit since then. And the second most important thing for low rates are due to the exposure to sunlight, which is 300 plus days, sunshine is available in tropical countries, and whether people like it or not, they get some exposure to sunlight, thereby developing some vitamin D, which enough to just manage to prevent complication and deaths.
