Retrospective 2,148 COVID-19 recovered patients in Jordan, showing lower risk of severity and hospitalization with vitamin D prophylaxis.
This is the 72nd of 111 COVID-19 controlled studies for vitamin D, which collectively show efficacy with p<0.0000000001 (1 in 49 sextillion). 27 studies are RCTs, which show efficacy with p=0.00002.
This study includes vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin D, aspirin, zinc, and vitamin B9.
risk of hospitalization, 33.3% lower, RR 0.67, p = 0.001, treatment 66 of 796 (8.3%), control 153 of 1,352 (11.3%), NNT 33, adjusted per study, odds ratio converted to relative risk, multivariable.
risk of severe case, 29.0% lower, RR 0.71, p = 0.01, treatment 81 of 796 (10.2%), control 179 of 1,352 (13.2%), NNT 33, adjusted per study, odds ratio converted to relative risk, multivariable.
Effect extraction follows pre-specified rules prioritizing more serious outcomes. Submit updates

The BJBMS publishes an "Advanced online" manuscript format as a free service to authors in order to expedite the dissemination of scientific findings to the research community as soon as possible after acceptance following peer review and corresponding modification (where appropriate). An "Advanced online" manuscript is published online prior to copyediting, formatting for publication and author proofing, but is nonetheless fully citable through its Digital Object Identifier (doi®). Nevertheless, this "Advanced online" version is NOT the final version of the manuscript. When the final version of this paper is published within a definitive issue of the journal with copyediting, full pagination, etc. the new final version will be accessible through the same doi and this "Advanced online" version of the paper will disappear.
