Highlights • Vitamin D deficiency is very common.• Randomised controlled trials showed that vitamin D decreases acute respiratory infections (ARIs).• Vitamin D deficiency is an easily modifiable factor of ARIs.• Daily vitamin D supplementation with moderate doses is safe and cheap.• Even a small decrease in COVID-19 infections would easily justify this intervention.
