“Just one month ago, the idea that most people aren’t susceptible to Covid-19 — perhaps the overwhelming majority — was considered dangerous denialism.”

A rational research community would have questioned the dogma of 100% susceptibility from the start.

Theories abound as to which factors best explain the huge disparities between countries in the portion of the population that seems resistant or immune — everything from levels of vitamin D...

Ding, ding!

Of course the DNC/MSM/ Big Pharma complex wouldn’t like the corona crisis to be largely fixed by something as simple as a vitamin-D3 supplement which costs pennies each.

It’s a way to sound all sciencey while basically saying “here there be dragons” like the edge of the world on an antique map.

I live in New Jersey, one of the big hot zones. Everyone went to grocery stores, everyone got food delivered, etc. I don't know of any clerks at Wawa, grocery stores, liquor stores, door dash that even got Covid, much less died from it. You may say' oh pepsi, you fool! that's just anecdotal!' Okay, I do know from NJ Stare released stats that over 70% of the people in my town that died of Covid (several hundred people in just my town) were all in nursing homes.

This is precisely the flu, bro.

A lot of evidence that vitamin D is involved based on other studies of CAP (community acquired pneumonia) has come out. It’s cheap and easy to get at least 1000 mg daily just to be safe.

Many older people have gotten blood transfusions in say the past two years from say people under 40.

They may wish to check to see if this gave the older persons immunity.

This retrospective study could be done quickly.

Perhaps the vitamin partially blocks immune system suppressing steroids.

Vitamin Ds have a steroid similar chemical structure.

Some people think dark skinned people are more susceptible, perhaps because their skin partially blocks vitamin D production.

Black folks might want to soak up the rays bigtime.

The Trump April reduction theory corresponds to increased sun exposure and Vitamin D production.

Over half of our local cases are illegals. The benefits of cheap labor just keep on piling up, don’t they?

Not sure about half, but in New York the illegal infected are huge numbers.

The largest co-ordinated government action in history, forcibly closing down most of the world’s societies with consequences that may last for generations, would have been absolutely WAS based on faulty science.
