All day yesterday, I could feel a cold coming on, just a regular cold with aches and sniffles and a cough. My chest especially on one side felt a bit tight but I was getting plenty of oxygen and felt it was no big deal, just a cold. 50 white male in good health, no issues.
I went to bed early and was breathing good but still felt heaviness in chest and figured if this is a cold, it will probably be ramping up. I took action.
I self-administered 7 of the 3mg IVERMECTIN pills, plus Quercetin, Zinc and Centrum which contains C and D. I then fell into a deep sleep and woke up sweaty a couple hours later with zero breathing issues. I was still achey so I took a ibuprofen and went back to bed.
This morning, I have much better energy than yesterday. My breathing is much better too. I still definitely have a cold but I feel like the medicine I took had a positive impact. I'll take my 2nd round dose tomorrow morning.
That's why I said "when you can".
Here's a small study (doesn't say time of year for some reason). Bradenton, FL compared to Erie, PA.

Conclusion: Latitude was found to be a statistically significant risk factor for vitamin D deficiency. Additionally, the findings suggest that persons with darker skin tone and, to a lesser degree, men and persons who are overweight or obese are also at increased risk for vitamin D deficiency. Physicians should be cognizant of these risk factors when deciding whom to screen.
Pro tip: If you live below 35 degrees latitude you can get D every day of the year. This is because UVB rays penetrate the atmosphere at 35 degrees above the horizon.
