For now, researchers caution against reading too much into the available studies. J. Wesley Pike, a biochemistry professor at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, said there is not enough proof yet to suggest a meaningful relationship between vitamin D and COVID-19. Researchers will need to conduct further studies to determine if that vitamin is effective in combating the coronavirus. “There’s simply no evidence that taking vitamin D will protect you,” Pike said. “But again, we don’t know. The answer is it’s possible.”
