What's interesting with COVID is that it hasn't necessarily shone a light onto the capture of regulatory bodies; I believe many people are aware that there's a lot of backdoor engagements going on that uphold many benefits for the pharmaceutical companies.
What COVID has shown is that, when provided the right manipulative narrative, large swarms of people would be made to defend the malfeasance of pharmaceutical industries. If we were in any other non-COVID year I think many people would have been aghast at hearing about a rushed vaccine or pushing through a drug with hardly any evidence of both safety and efficacy. Now these people, through 2 years of training and learned helplessness, now bend to the will of the pharmaceutical manufacturers as their only ticket out of the Pandemic. No exercise, no vitamins, no examination of repurposed drugs, just this parochial viewpoint that this is the only thing that will save us all.
And thanks for including my post! As an aside, because of how Omicron is playing out part of me believes that within a month or 2 of distributing Molnupiravir the EUA will be revoked for lack of effectiveness. It's strange that, with Omicron being so different compared to prior variants that treatment has not been updated to reflect that!

I have posted here before. Check out Amazon to see how exceedingly inexpensive D3 can be when you buy it in the powder form >>> https://www.amazon.com/BulkSupplements-Vitamin-Cholecalciferol-Powder-Grams/dp/B00EV16SAU | One pound for $32. If I bought this I would need a fine scale to measure out my daily dose of 10000 iu D3. Since I would pay $32, this means the CDC could buy it by the ton and delivered for $15/lb.
The CDC could have the tonnage delivered to its Atlanta HQ, to finally get some useful labor out of its personnel, as they packed it into plastic bottles. As they sent every US household an ounce or two along with 5 tiny measuring spoons. 5 since they will lose some. This D3 will cost the CDC $30000 per ton. To send this out to 150 million US households... You do the math. My lightning guess is 5-10-20 million dollars.
Instead we went the Fauci-Phama$$-lockdowns-masks-vaxxx route that has killed our small business economy. Of course the Amazons, Walmarts, Home Depots did more business and higher profits.
Sending out free D3 to all US households and nursing homes, commencing in March 2000 would have saved more lives. Look at the endless spike protein vaxxxxx and boosters propaganda we have endured. This should have been D3 propaganda.
This last paragraph is for general consumption. That I might toss up on the UK Daily Mail. Of course Robin knows what ng/ml means>>>
If you wanna be free. Get your D3 up to 93. Get your D3 levels checked and get them up to 93 ng/ml. If you do not know what ng/ml means, then you are really in the dark. 10000 d3 daily should get the average 150lb person up to 75 ng/ml in 2-3 months.
Hi Sloop John B, I agree with all you wrote. However, what is portrayed as the "US health system" is, in large part, a system for extracting profits and wielding power, rather than keeping people healthy.
Very few people would have died, and the pandemic transmission would have been largely suppressed, if the most vulnerable people had been properly vitamin D3 supplemented first, reaching out to the whole population as Skunkworks, Manhattan Project, scale efforts were made by governments all over the world to build more vitamin D3 factories with war-like urgency. I have been advocating this for nearly two years.
I am 69kg and take 50,000 IU a week 7,143 IU a day. I guess my 25(OH)D level is 70 to 90 ng/mL, but it could be 50 to 120 ng/mL at the outside. I am happy with this and feel no need to have it tested.
This is 25 grams of D3 = $3.72 / gram. 1,000,000,000 IU IU for $93, or $1 for 10,752,688 IU = 0.269 grams.
5000 IU a day is a gram every 22 years. With this powder, the cost would be USD$0.17 per year, plus the cost or making it into weekly tablets, capsules or whatever.
I was talking to a long-time vitamin D researcher recently and we agreed that if everyone had 50 ng/mL or more 25-hydroxyvitamin D, that overall ill-health - and so the requirement for healthcare services - would drop to half or less of its current level.
Globally, for all humans, we need about a tonne of vitamin D3 a day. Pharma grade D3 costs about USD$2,500 a kilogram ex factory. So this is a billion dollars a year, plus the cost of weekly capsules.
Only a few factories make cholecalciferol - none are owned by the major pharmaceutical companies. It involves specialised equipment to transform cholesterol from woolfat into 7-dehydrocholesterol, irradiate it with ~295ngm UV-B light from massive, specialsed, mercury vapor lamps, and then to refine the resulting D3. All this is done in benzene or some other flammable hydrocarbon. See: https://aminotheory.com/cv19/#Maharashtra-police and Arnold L. Hirsch 2010: https://sci-hub.se/10.1016/B978-0-12-381978-9.10006-X .
Very approximately 80 tonnes of not so refined vitamin D3 is made each year for agricultural purposes, at a much lower price. Very approximately, 20 tonnes a year is made for humans.
Thanks for doing the math. What I find amusing is that one can live in a very sunny nation. This might be Australia, Thailand, Suriname, the Southern USA. You can still be D3 deficient due to staying indoors for your employment and to beat the heat. As in air conditioning. Our Southern states have had a tremendous increase in population in the last 50 years. This never would have taken place without air conditioning.
So I don't care if you are an Eskimo or a Mexican. Get your D3 levels checked out and act accordingly. Robin is exempt. You have an idea where your are at on D3. My med insurance is limited but if I wanted to I could get my D3 checked twice a month as part of a general blood test. My recent D3 tests have come in at 74 and 75. I often get lots of sunlight when out walking. I take my T-shirt off. No one cares about this where I live.
Still I take my D3 gelcaps. 10000 iu per day. When I am too busy and forget. Then usually, 20000 with some K2. A quickie best/maximum D3 absorb is to take your D3 and K2, both are fat soluble. Chase them down with a teaspoon or tablespoon of cod liver oil. Done on an empty stomach. Delicious.

Purebulk sells powder which is 5000 IU = 0.125mg D3 in 50mg of powder. So this is 1/400 = 0.25% = 25 grams of D3 per kg, for $93 / kg (ex shipping): https://purebulk.com/products/cholecalciferol-vitamin-d3?variant=14294909419569 .
This is 25 grams of D3 = $3.72 / gram. 1,000,000,000 IU IU for $93, or $1 for 10,752,688 IU = 0.269 grams.
