Vitamin D supplementation has a protective effect, against the incidence of COVID-19 in RCT studies, OR 0.403, (95% IC 0.218, 0.747) In the RCTs performed on HCWs, the overall reduction in risk in the population supplemented with vitamin D was approximately 80% Against the incidence of COVID-19 in analytical studies OR = 0.592, (95% IC 0.476–0.736) Against the incidence of COVID-19 ICU admission OR 0.317, (95% IC 0.147–0.680). Our meta-analysis suggests a definitive and significant association between the protective role of vitamin D and COVID-19 incidence and ICU admission.
