Colin Powell, whose immune system was weakened, died of Covid-19 after fighting cancer. New York Times Oct 18, 2021
- In a study published in July, researchers found that just 45 percent of those with active multiple myeloma “developed an adequate response” after receiving either the Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna vaccines. FREE PDF of study

He was 84,
Fully vaccinated against COVID
Diagnosed with early-onset Parkinson's Disease (which is strongly associated with low vitamin D)
VitaminDWiki
While there has been many studies that have found that
Multiple Myeloma patients have low Vitamin D and that supplementation helps,
have been unable to find any indication that Multiple Myeloma patients are routinely treated
Multiple Myeloma (blood cell cancer) treated by vitamin D - many studies
Vitamin D level for Multiple Myeloma is only 5 ng
26 health factors increase the risk of COVID-19 – all are proxies for low vitamin D
risk factors for low vitamin D include Cancer, Dark Skin, Old age, and Obesity
Vitamin D is synergistic with many Cancer therapies (radiation in this case) – Aug 2021
Cancer patients need more vitamin D, even those who are supplementing – observational study June 2021
Chemotherapy drugs often reduce Vitamin D levels, restoring levels helps– Aug 2018
Dark Skin and Virus
- Lower Magnesium, 6 percent more COVID - Feb 2022
- “Black Patients Matter”: US Blacks 2X more likely to die of COVID-19 than whites – Sept 29, 2021
- Virus and Dark Skin in VitaminDWiki
- US coalition of Black and Latino churches hope to reduce the 3X COVID-19 disparity - Aug 2021
- COVID-19 mortality for Blacks is 5X that for whites in 2 LA Hospitals - July 2021
- Low vitamin D associated with increased COVID-19 risk (in this case black women 1.7X) – July 2021
- COVID-19 was the third-leading cause of death in the US, especially in those with dark skins - April 1, 2021
- Prefer 40 – 60 ng of Vitamin D to minimize COVID-19 – March 17, 2021
- 26 health factors increase the risk of COVID-19 – all are proxies for low vitamin D
- Those with recent cancer diagnosis had 7X increased risk of COVID-19 (more if A-A )- Dec 2020
- Healthcare workers at higher risk of COVID-19 if low vitamin D, especially if dark skin – Dec 2020
- Shift workers 2X more likely to get COVID-19 (low Vitamin D) - Dec 2020
- COVID-19 was killing dark-skinned doctors, then they got a Vitamin D recommendation
- COVID-19 antibodies 2.6 X more likely if had symptoms and low vitamin D (UK hospital staff)– Oct 5 2020
- Vitamin D could knock out COVID-19 in 3 months – Dr. Matthews interview Oct 2020
- Rate of COVID-19 test positive is 40 pcnt lower if high vitamin D (192,000 people) - Holick Sept 2020
- COVID-19 increased 3.5 X if Ultra-Orthodox (cloth) Sept, 2020
- COVID-19 is harder for those with dark skins - perhaps due to low vitamin D – April 24, 2020
- COVID-19 more frequent and deadly for those with dark skins (high risk of low vitamin D)
- Indications of increase COVID-19 problems if dark skin in the UK- April 3 2020
Incidence of Multiple Melanoma has doubled in 30 years

from NIH
There are more than 200 different forms of primary immune deficiency diseases (PIDDs). NIAID conducts research across all PIDDs as well as among the individual diseases that make up this broad category. The following are some of the individual PIDDs that NIAID is currently studying.
Autoimmune Lymphoproliferative Syndrome (ALPS)
APS-1 (APECED)
BENTA Disease
Caspase Eight Deficiency State (CEDS)
CARD9 Deficiency and Other Syndromes of Susceptibility to Candidiasis
Chronic Granulomatous Disease (CGD)
Common Variable Immunodeficiency (CVID)
Congenital Neutropenia Syndromes
CTLA4 Deficiency
DOCK8 Deficiency
GATA2 Deficiency
Glycosylation Disorders with Immunodeficiency
Hyper-Immunoglobulin E Syndromes (HIES)
Hyper-Immunoglobulin M Syndromes
Interferon Gamma, Interleukin 12 and Interleukin 23 Deficiencies
Leukocyte Adhesion Deficiency (LAD)
LRBA Deficiency
PI3 Kinase Disease
PLCG2-associated Antibody Deficiency and Immune Dysregulation (PLAID)
Severe Combined Immunodeficiency (SCID)
STAT3 Dominant-Negative Disease
STAT3 Gain-of-Function Disease
Warts, Hypogammaglobulinemia, Infections, and Myelokathexis (WHIM) Syndrome
Wiskott-Aldrich Syndrome (WAS)
X-Linked Agammaglobulinemia (XLA)
X-Linked Lymphoproliferative Disease (XLP)
