impendingchange··on Covid-19 Mortality Risk Correlates Inversely with Vitamin D3 Status
From the Abstract:

"Results: One population study and seven clinical studies were identified, which reported D3 blood levels preinfection or on the day of hospital admission. The two independent datasets showed a negative Pearson correlation of D3 levels and mortality risk (r(17) = −0.4154, p = 0.0770/r(13) = −0.4886, p = 0.0646). For the combined data, median (IQR) D3 levels were 23.2 ng/mL (17.4–26.8), and a significant Pearson correlation was observed (r(32) = −0.3989, p = 0.0194). Regression suggested a theoretical point of zero mortality at approximately 50 ng/mL D3. Conclusions: The datasets provide strong evidence that low D3 is a predictor rather than just a side effect of the infection."

A review of studies on subjects.

It is interesting to see how total cases plateaus and then climbs in that country. Not even linear one bit:

From the abstract:

"We conclude that the mRNA vacs dramatically increase inflammation on the endothelium and T cell infiltration of cardiac muscle and may account for the observations of increased thrombosis, cardiomyopathy, and other vascular events following vaccination."

I am guessing that there will be a racket for imports that are purchased outside the country. How else will the politicians be able to get around this law?
impendingchange··on Octopuses, crabs and lobsters to be recognised as sentient beings under UK law
Seems to me that it is just relabeling something that is commonplace (eating crustaceans), and that most will not allow their moral prohibition for something so repugnant (human cannibalism) to erode.
