After all, the flu kills thousands of people in our country every year. -Dr. Don Colbert [Amazing Health Advances] If you've viewed the television or a newspaper in the last two weeks, you've surely heard of the fast-spreading coronavirus.

What Is Coronovirus?Interestingly, coronaviruses are actually a large family of viruses that are common in many different species of animals. In fact, human coronaviruses are often responsible for the common cold. However, the current strain is believed to be an "animal coronavirus," although experts are unsure from which animal it was contracted. It was first identified in Wuhan, Hubei province, China. Its symptoms may appear within 2 days of exposure, and up to 14 days. Alarmingly, there is some indication that it may be spread before symptoms appear, making it difficult to contain. It is a respiratory infection, and most symptoms are similar to other respiratory infections, including: • Fever Rare symptoms: • Pneumonia It's important to note that the vast majority of cases are still in China, and that countries such as the US are taking strong measures to identify any risk of infection in those traveling between our countries. 12 Natural Ways to Reduce Your Risk of the Coronovirus1.

Yet another study found that 2000 IU of vitamin D resulted in a significantly reduced risk of viral respiratory infections in school-aged children (1). Other studies point to the same, so try 2000 IU vitamin D per day throughout the winter-virus season and this outbreak. 6.
