Also what sort of timing on the test is it? If you get the test before arriving at the airport what’s to say you didn’t catch it en route? RIP Hawaii.

ummm....The overall prevalence rate of vitamin D deficiency was 41.6% Prevalence and Correlates of Vitamin D Deficiency in US Adults https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/21310306/ I mean it's a serious problem in the PNW.

If you get the test before arriving at the airport what’s to say you didn’t catch it en route? I'm not up to speed on how all the different tests available do their thing. I think our lawmakers are still hashing out the laws that are gonna need to be passed, but a confirmed negative test before departure (within how many hours/days, I don't know, and that seems like a huge blind spot to me), and then I read something about requiring a negative test locally here in the island 7 days after arrival. Follow the rules and you won't be subjected to our already incredibly shittily enforced 14 day quarantine. https://www.hawaiinewsnow.com/2020/05/21/some-lawmakers-want-require-negative-covid-test-before-passengers-arrive-hawaii/ There's so many loopholes though that I see this only as window dressing to appease the public here. Without any kind of instant test, it's not gonna loving work unless you agree as a passenger to a pre-departure quarantine AND negative test, followed by a second test at the airport which if it comes back negative throws you immediately into a forced quarantine facility. My guess is that we'll eventually go the way of the mainland. It'll all be so poorly enforced and there won't be enough political will or public willingness to go back to the posture that allowed us to get to where we are right now.

I have a fairly mild cold and the advice for that is to get tested just in case. It was all fairly straightforward, just rock up at the drive through testing place near me, get nose raped, get handed a bunch of info and go home. Of course you aren't supposed to leave the house until the test results come back and I forgot to do any grocery shopping before I went and get tested which was a bad move in hindsight.

rockear posted:This is not true. Melanin inhibits absorption of vitamin D from sunlight. People with darker skin living in climates with less sun are at higher risk for vitamin D deficiency. See: The Somali diaspora in Sweden. Well I don't know anything about that, but I do know that most african americans outside of one or two cities live in the south east, which is nothing but sunlight. African Americans living in Atlanta aren't getting covid because of low vitamin d levels due to climate. And then weirdly african americans have lower rates of osteoporotic fractures but that could also just be due to not getting adequate healthcare. im currently working in meth world USA and i very rarely see anyone under 40 with low vitamin d levels, and these people only go outside to sell the copper wiring they've stolen from abandoned houses. but who the gently caress knows at this point. worst hting that happens from taking a supplement is you get expensive pee.

Rauros posted:ummm....The overall prevalence rate of vitamin D deficiency was 41.6% Right, and the prevalence of Vitamin D deficiency in children is negligible, which might explain why COVID only rarely affects kids: https://tinyurl.com/yb6eanck quote:An analysis of data on 2877 US children and adolescents (age, 6-18 y) from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2003-2006 indicated that, based on current Institute of Medicine Committee guidelines, about 10.3% of this population (an estimated 5.5 million) had inadequate vitamin D (25(OH)D) levels (< 16 ng/mL), and 4.6% (an estimated 2.5 million) had levels placing them at risk of frank deficiency (< 12 ng/mL). Adolescents (age, 14-18 y) and obese children had the highest risk of 25(OH)D deficiency and inadequacy, and these risks were also higher among girls than boys (of any age and body mass index) and among nonwhite children.

MorrisBae posted:I switched doctors like 5 years ago, and the doctor took one look at my skin and said "you look like you don't get out much" and had me get bloodwork - turns out I had a Vitamin D deficiency from lack of sunlight yep, i work with clinical data and providers every day and one of them tests pretty much every patient for vitamin D levels. it was probably a majority of tests that came back deficient. in addition to the possible covid benefits, there is also likely a link between vit d deficiency and MS. so, take a vit d supplement. D3 is better than D2 but either is fine

After enjoying a wonderful day in the swamps of delaware with 85 degree 100% humidity, masks are going to be going away real loving fast. Just walking to the car was miserable, trying to breath with a mask. And I'm used to it as I wear a mask for 10 hours a day in the hospital.

I just don't think it's a terrible idea for someone who's not spending much time outside right now to be supplementing vitamin D within FDA guidelines right now as a precautionary measure.

As a pale rear end goon who never goes outside, I am definitely vitamin D deficient without taking supplements for it. That said, 15-20 minutes a day in the sun is usually enough to not be deficient. I'd probably need to start my running routine again to get that going.
