It may be a bit of a storm in teacup. Clinical studies in humans have shown that MBL deficiency may to cause a predisposion to respiratory tract infections, however, it is a fairly common condition, affecting approximately 5–30 people in every 100.
In most cases no regular treatment of any kind is needed. If infections are mild and infrequent, and the person's quality of life is not significantly affected, then treatment can be limited to the early use of antibiotics when an infection occurs.

If you want to treat any respiratory bugs, try ivermectin - it has changed the quality of life for my fam.
Along with ivermectin, NAC (N-Acetylcysteine) has been amazing at clearing out my son’s lungs.
