mjg59_schestowitz-TR: Which journal?Nov 18 11:36
schestowitzhttps://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-022-24053-4Nov 18 11:37
-TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell-www.nature.com | Association between vitamin D supplementation and COVID-19 infection and mortality | Scientific ReportsNov 18 11:37
schestowitzyou're welcomeNov 18 11:37
mjg59_Huh it's not great that the abstract has grammatical errorsNov 18 11:47
mjg59_Oh, it's a VA study. There's a bunch of confounding factors there.Nov 18 11:48
mjg59_(Not saying it's wrong, just that VA studies are not necessarily representative of the population as a whole, for obvious reasons)Nov 18 11:49
mjg59_There's zero harm in taking vitamin D supplements in any caseNov 18 11:51
schestowitz-TR:-)Nov 18 11:54
mjg59_The limitations section does discuss a bunch of potential confounding factors, but a single study basically can't disentangle thatNov 18 11:56
mjg59_It's a meaningful result and I'll probably pay more attention to my vitamin D levels, but it wouldn't surprise me if the effectiveness they suggest isn't replicated in other studiesNov 18 11:57
mjg59_But it could be!Nov 18 11:57
