Viral infections such as SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19), influenza, respiratory syncytial virus and many others are usually associated with increased oxidative stress leading to oxidative cellular and tissue damage resulting in multiorgan failure. Vitamin C has demonstrated favourable therapeutic properties and a good safety profile throughout a wide range of clinical applications. Administration of high-dose vitamin C as a therapeutic agent can favourably impact patients with viral pneumonia and ARDS in severe SARS-CoV-2 infection by decreasing inflammation and pathogen infectiveness and virulence, optimising immune defence, reducing tissue and organ injury, and improving the overall outcome of the disease.

Application of a high dose of vitamin C can dramatically reduce the need for treatment with high doses of corticosteroids, antibacterials and antiviral drugs. Vitamin C also can be effective for primary prevention of viral infections by boosting the innate immune response. In infected patients, vitamin C therapy may shorten the disease course and prevent complications of the disease [47], [79]. In addition to vitamin C, other nutraceutical antioxidants widely available as over-the-counter drugs or food supplements can be used to improve the redox balance and reduce tissue damage in patients with viral pneumonia and ARDS. These possible agents include, but are not limited to, tocopherol, lipoic acid, N-acetylcysteine, glutathione, l-carnitine, coenzyme-Q10, zinc and selenium compounds.

Whenever illness finds its way into our house, I always take 5000 milligrams of C, along with Zinc and a massive dose of D3 -- like 40,000 IUs. I wipe down all the door, cupboard and appliance handles and sink faucets with disinfectant to cut the spread, and make a habit of never rubbing my eyes or nose with a finger tip.

I've been doing this since I got contact lenses in college in the 1990s, and ended up sick for two months straight. I realized it was because they bothered my eyes and I was rubbing them all the time and touching all those campus doorknobs. I ditched the contacts and started only ever rubbing my eye with my knuckle. I also noticed that I would get sick after a period of not going outside for a couple of weeks. When I'd walk to class, I never got sick. When I drove and stayed inside too much, I would get sick...so logically, I tried supplementing Vitamin D. Sure enough, it works! Been mostly not getting sick now for almost 30 years.

Three weeks ago, when people in my house started getting sick, I followed my usual routine. Then one of them popped a positive on a Covid PCR test. Never got so much as a sniffle. Nor was I worried about it.

Article from October. I remember reading about this on Voat in Jaurary or Ferbruary 2020.
It is one of those times again that being on voat results of being ahead of the curve by 6 to 12 months.

Lol. I saw a recent article suggesting that obesity **may** increase the dangers of china flu. I remember thinking "Nigger, but when I said it several months ago it was just a dangerous conspiracy Theory ".
