There are substantial clinical and medical studies (hundreds) that statistically prove that those with compromised immune systems or VD deficiency are much more likely to be victims of COVID or other respiratory diseases by a wide margin. We know exactly the demographic groups at risk.
Mitigates in this regard may even be more effective than current mitigate protocols (masks, hand-washing), but regardless, it behooves us to communicate and recommend an inclusive full-court press using all possible mitigates -as innocent lives may be saved and as no doctor or authority can predict what mitigate would work best for any particular person. So why take chances?
Again, I would stress that there are no silver bullets given the virus mutations and moving science, but we need to expand our discourse and actions where scientific evidence is statistically significant and can limit the number of victims of this virus in its current and future forms. This is common sense - but, the problem with common sense; it is just not so common.
