The coronavirus has not bogged down our health care system like they said it would.Why are we still reacting with a response to the initial assumption of risk.

We have two flavours of vitamin D: chocolate and orange.

I've never seen flavors. Are they for chewing?



I'm used to a light brown clear liquid in a transparent capsule - to be swallowed with water like most pills .. 1000 iu / capsule



I always have taken 1000 but upped it to 3000 lately .. just talked to our pharmacist as to would more be netter especially if one caught the virus .. he said that is sufficient

If Trump hadn't promoted it, more people would have been treated with hydroxy and antibiotics.

Halifax lab team to conduct first Canadian trials for possible coronavirus vaccine



The first Canadian clinical trials for a possible COVID-19 vaccine will be conducted by a Halifax research team that also was involved in trials that eventually led to a vaccine for the Ebola virus.



Health Canada has approved trials that will be conducted at the Canadian Centre for Vaccinology at Dalhousie University.



The centre's director, Dr. Scott Halperin, says the lab was one of several in Canada and the U.S. whose work starting in 2014 eventually saw an "emergency release" of an Ebola vaccine that was used in West Africa before a third phase of clinical trials had been completed.



"The Phase 1 studies were done and within six months the data were available and the phase three studies were started in West Africa which then helped to actually stop the epidemic," he said in an interview.



Halperin said it's possible the same emergency release could happen in Canada with a potential COVID-19 vaccine if it shows potential and is deemed safe, expediting a process that usually takes a number of years to complete — anywhere from five to seven years under normal circumstances.
