I like Mercola a lot, but that is just hypocritical given his stance against censorship. Mercola continues to promote associations between D and disease as being causal relationships, that these causal relationships go in one particular direction (and not the other), and that even if these two pass the sniff test, it would still not mean intervening with D supplements necessarily works. I&amp;#39;ve lost some respect for Mercola for refusing actually debate the science behind vitamin D.&lt;/p&gt;

So far no jabs, no COVID. I am also experimenting with 3% hydrogen peroxide and a nebulizer, both of which are easily available  locally. Exercise consists of 1/2 hour walks everyday.

Just a politician. My doctors and medical practitioners have told me repeatedly that a majority of people in the northern latitudes are Vitamin D deficient and require supplementation, even if they have a healthy diet. Also, just about every relevant article I have ever read about Covid by experts in the field has mentioned the importance of Vitamin D, that it is actually a hormone, and is critical to hundreds of biological functions including critical pathways in the immune system. As far as I am concerned this lady is just a laughingstock and I&amp;#39;m totally not impressed by the way Canada and the UK have managed the entire Covid process, since their methodology has widely differed from the real experts in the field of virology regarding the origins and best management of the virus. Never been impressed by Trudeau either, he&amp;#39;s also a fool.&lt;/p&gt;

It is a sad time to be Canadian.&lt;/p&gt;

They’re afraid of being “Bill Gates’d” and being fired. Do your own research and make your own educated health decisions, that’s what Dr. Mercola is all about. If you take your medical advice from the Biden administration, mainstream media or social media, my condolences!&lt;/p&gt;

Wilful ignorance has long been the strategy of governments, big Pharma and the official narrative that only drugs and vaccines can save us. The solar system in which human and animal life evolved did not include masks, vaccines, mRNA ‘therapy’ and isolation. On the contrary,  it was social interaction, exposure to sunlight and animal sources of fatty acids which led to an increase in brain size and the development of the innate and adaptive immune system. ﻿&lt;/p&gt;

Conclusion: adequate supplementation in high-risk areas and/or soon after the time of suspected infection with SARS-CoV-2. Subjects in high-risk groups should have high priority as regards this nutritive adjuvant therapy.&lt;/p&gt;
