1200 Buddhist monks and nuns in COVID-19 quarantine center were given water containing
- 40,000 IU of vitamin D
- 50 mg of zinc
- 2 grams of vitamin C
- 60 billion Probiotics.
only 1 person died (mortality rate = 0.07%)
The overall COVID-19 mortality rate in the country is steady at 2.1%
$56 of Vitamin D + misc. other ingredients conservatively saved the lives of 6 of those 1200 people
about $10 of vitamin D per life saved
The doctors in that country (as well as most other countries) do not believe in such large doses of Vitamin D
The Buddhist monks were not constrained by doctors beliefs
People in Myanmar are placed in quarantine centers if they test positive for COVID-19
The Buddhists have their own quarantine center (s?)
The Vitamin D water was given to every Buddhist in the quarantine center. not just given upon entry to the center
A total of about 300 people were tested for vitamin D levels both before and after.
The initial level varied: mostly around 12-18 ng/mL
However, those monks who had gone out for alms (with head, shoulders, and feet exposed to the sun) had ~40ng/mL.
The vitamin D water given was based on a proposal by Vitamin DWiki
