Vitamin D and its association with Covid-19 infection – Dr Mashhood Qazi

Recent data has shown another association between vitamin D levels and Covid-19 infection. A recent study which was done in UAE on more than 500 patients showed that in 59% of patients who had low vitamin D levels, the severity of covid infection was much higher when compared to patients who had normal vitamin D levels.

It is recommended that vitamin D levels must be checked every 6 to 12 months and if found low than vitamin D supplements must be taken.
