Treatment - Vitamin 3 Doesn't Help Morbidity/Mortality IF Being Treated for COVID-19
Among hospitalized patients with severe COVID-19, vitamin D3 supplementation was safe and increased 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels, but did not reduce hospital length of stay or any other relevant outcomes vs placebo. This trial does not support the use of vitamin D3 supplementation as an adjuvant treatment of patients with COVID-19.

Effect of Vitamin D3 Supplementation vs Placebo on Hospital Length of Stay in Patients with Severe COVID-19: A Multicenter, Double-blind, Randomized Controlled Trial

Importance Patients with COVID-19 may exhibit 25-hydroxyvitamin D deficiency, but the beneficial effects of vitamin D3 supplementation in this disease remain to be proven by randomized controlled trials. Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of vitamin D3 supplementation in patients...

How airflow inside your car affects COVID-19 risk

"Driving around with the windows up and the air conditioning or heat on is definitely the worst scenario, according to our computer simulations."

should have done the study with busses instead.
where you are among strangers.
hopefully it will be illegal from now on to build busses with no windows, and with air-condition instead. those are a death trap and just plain awful.
there have to be windows that can be opened

So we have to eat toothpaste and drink mouthwash? Great.......😅

Only problem of course is that viruses also enter though the nose and eyes..... so a layer of toothpaste under the eyes and nose? Will look great
 
Conspiracy Theories - Prevalence
Pretty scary.

This report includes findings from a survey of 2,254 UK residents aged 16- 75 by King’s College London and Ipsos MORI, conducted on 20-22 May. It accompanies a peer-reviewed article published in Psychological Medicine. The report finds that:
  • People who believe conspiracy theories about Covid-19 are more likely to have broken key lockdown rules: for example, 38% of those who think there is no hard evidence that Covid-19 really exists have had family/friends visit them at home, compared with 12% of those who think that’s false.
  • People who believe in conspiracy theories are more likely to be getting their information about Covid-19 from social media: for example, 60% of those who believe the symptoms are linked to 5G radiation say that much of their information on Covid-19 comes from YouTube,compared with 14% of those who think that’s false.
  • People who have broken key lockdown rules are more likely to be getting their information about Covid-19 from social media: for example, 58% of those who have gone outside when they had symptoms that could be Covid-19 say that much of their information on Covid-19 comes from YouTube, compared with 16% of those who haven’t.
And significant proportions of the population believe in conspiracies or are confused about the virus:
• 3 in 10 think coronavirus was probably created in a lab, up from a quarter at the beginning of April.
• 3 in 10 think most people in the UK have already had coronavirus without realising it.
• 3 in 10 believe the Covid-19 death toll is being deliberately reduced or hidden by the authorities.
• 1 in 7 believe the death toll is being deliberately exaggerated by the authorities.
• 1 in 8 believe that the current pandemic is part of a global effort to force everyone to be vaccinated.
• More than 1 in 20 believe that the symptoms that most people blame on Covid-19 appear to be connected to 5G network radiation.
• More than 1 in 20 believe there is no hard evidence that Covid-19 really exists.

Nearly three-in-ten Americans believe COVID-19 was made in a lab

While 43% of Americans say the new coronavirus most likely came about naturally, nearly three-in-ten say it most likely was created in a lab.
