All care homes in England will receive enough supplements for their residents, the government says.
will get a letter inviting them to opt in for a supply of Vitamin D tablets to be delivered to their homes."Vitamin D is important for our bone and muscle health," says Dr Alison Tedstone, chief nutritionist at Public Health England. "We advise that everyone, particularly the elderly, those who don't get outside and those with dark skin, take a Vitamin D supplement containing 10 micrograms every day.
"This year, the advice is more important than ever with more people spending more time inside, which is why the government will be helping the clinically extremely vulnerable to get Vitamin D." People who are able to buy a Vitamin D supplement and start taking them now, ahead of a free delivery, are advised to do so.Iran's foreign minister has condemned the killing of Mohsen Fakhrizadeh "as an act of state terror".
There is a lot of evidence the strongly suggests it protects against getting moderate or severe Covid. Taking it is harmless & is simply insuring good nutrition. For public health authorities not to shout this loudly is pure malpractice and has cost lives.
The recommended dosage is way too low! And PHE know it. Much much higher doses would be needed to replete serum levels and attain a protective threshold. Those who have invested in Pharma can't let Vit. D shine in its true light, because they would go bankrupt. A pity
So the British government is going to give their people free vitamin D pills in exchange for continuing to imprison them through the winter, preventing them from sunlight, fresh air, and exercise? Fucked up beyond belief. RESIST.
Exercise and take vitamins....Not fucking rocket science.
Very cheap vitamin. Sheep secrete it into their wool then it’s scraped off the zippers of Welshmen.

The likes of Andrew Saul, Dr Mercola, etc have advocated this from day one... social media called them quacks...... BBC wouldn’t even acknowledge them.......who quacking now!!!!
When I launched my own range of vitamin and minerals the government banned me from saying the same things they are now claiming themselves. I bet if this was investigated you'd discover the difference is minsters own shares in large vitamin companies now.

Vitamin D has been getting a lot of attention lately. Rightfully so!
Bullshit
BLM..come on BBC call a spade a spade.
Amazing how my GP stopped mine over a year ago despite the fact I am bedbound and do not have direct sunlight . The Government decided we should pay for our own vitamins even if desperately needed in this case ...appalling !

Imagine telling people that they both need vitamin D (main source is sunlight) AND to lock themselves into their homes...
Desperation with unproven snakeoil fads.

They were told this 9 months ago. What is wrong with these people? This could’ve saved lives. Pennies per day.
Only taken 8 months for the government to cotton on to this, many have been aware much earlier than this.

anti-Marxismlist! On my opinion, the human society is running on these: 1 technology define theoretical economic aggregate 2 labour define gross economy 3 finance system define distribution of wealth from gross economy
Finally some sensible solutions. Much more proportionate than the nationwide house arrest we've had so far
