What Have We Learned About Preventing and Treating COVID-19? Part 1: Physical Strategies, Natural Health Products, and Lifestyle.

Abstract

Many strategies were tried by our public health authorities to contain, mitigate, and treat the COVID-19 pandemic. With now 3 years of experience, research is being published that can help us determine what worked, and what did not. Unfortunately, assessing the research is very challenging. Not only are many of the approaches still not rigorously evaluated, but politics and censorship clearly distorted the research and reporting. In this, the first of 2 editorials, I review the research on Physical Strategies, Natural Health Products, and Healthy Lifestyle. In the next editorial I will take on Drugs and Vaccinations.
