Is Vitamin D more powerful than vaccines?

Robert Malone recently claimed that Dr. Tony Fauci stopped research on vitamin D because it was not about vaccines. He claimed this happened, even though Army researchers believed that vitamin D helped protect soldiers from respiratory illnesses.

There is no proof that Dr. Anthony Fauci stopped any research on vitamin D in the military. The idea that he did it because “we treat infectious diseases with vaccines, not with nutritional supplements,” Dr. Fauci is a doctor who studies the immune system, and he knows two important things:

1. “Infectious diseases” means any disease caused by germs, not just ones for which vaccines exist.
2. Vaccines don’t “treat” diseases like medicine does. Vaccines help prevent people from catching certain diseases. They do not cure someone after they are sick.

Many adults in the United States don’t have enough vitamin D: around 35% have low levels. Vitamin D is needed for bones, muscles, nerves, and the immune system to work well. But if someone already has enough vitamin D, taking extra won’t make them healthier.
