Although it was sensible to shelter in place at the beginning of the pandemic when we were just beginning to learn about the risks of coronavirus and how it spreads, evidence is now mounting that continuing this practice may no longer be beneficial. In fact it may be quite harmful.

Vitamin D

I have often discussed the importance of vitamin D in helping protect you from COVID-19. In fact, numerous studies have shown that people with low vitamin D levels are much more likely to die if they catch COVID-19. The research is so convincing that even Dr. Fauci says that he takes vitamin D supplements for this very reason. And he rarely recommends any natural treatments for health issues!

A study done at Washington University, my old alma mater, and published in the Journal of the AMA (JAMA), showed dramatic protective effects of a common medication called Luvox in people infected by the pandemic. This medication is used as a unique antidepressant in people with obsessive-compulsive disorder.
