Evidence points to the fact that higher serum 25(OH)D levels can reduce the risk or severity of acute respiratory tract infections, possibly including COVID-19 – with Vitamin D’s positive impact on innate and acquired immunity.
The researchers cite evidence, which says the, “incidence and mortality of COVID have been far higher in African Americans than in European Americans; after adjustment for age, African Americans are 4.5 times more likely to die from COVID-19 than European Americans.
As for Vitamin D’s effect on reducing Covid-19 patients from advancing into intensive care units, “in a non-randomized intervention study conducted in Spain among hospitalized patients hospitalized for COVID-19, high doses of vitamin D (as 25(OH) D3) were administered in combination with standard care; only 1/50 required admission to the intensive care unit compared to 13/26 comparable control patients.”

SALIDA Ericka, a Salida area mother of three, needs to find a stem cell match.
In October 2020, Ericka was diagnosed with Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS), a group of diverse bone marrow disorders. Ericka is Dutch Indonesian, Filipino, and Portuguese. So, her matching donor will most likely be someone of a similar ethnic background.
A drive-thru stem cell registration event takes place on Sunday, March 14, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Hughes Business Park, 5492 Pirrone Road, in Salida to help Ericka and other patients of color searching for a stem cell match.
