Because of the way it is metabolised it really needs to be taken daily.
During winter only, we take a daily 1000somethings of Vit D. I don't believe that overdoses of anything are effective, not even chocolate.
On a different note, here is a reference to some (small) studies that postulate a link between long Covid and gut biome.

But as with so many gut interrelations, it may be hard to distinguish between cause and effect.
I shall continue to put my faith in regular doses of peanut butter and marmalade sandwich.

And cheese.
But marmalade is not. And nor is honey, nor cheese.
So peanut butter might be regarded as a versatile intermediary. The Henry Kissinger of foods.

From the article:XFool wrote:Covid: Large trial of new treatment begins in UK
BBC News
A large-scale trial of a new treatment it is hoped will help stop Covid-19 patients from developing severe illness has begun in the UK.
Early findings suggested the treatment cut the odds of a Covid-19 patient in hospital developing severe disease - such as requiring ventilation - by almost 80%.
So it's a bit like Vitamin D then.
Why is the govt, NICE etc so opposed to accepting the effctiveness of Vitamin D? The evidence continues to pile up.

This, of course, should not be news in 2021. In many ways this is the expected result and was clearly the case as soon as it was possible to be reinfected (which was probably March 2020 or earlier). It was always going to be a small minority of people that get reinfected.With an estimated one in five having been infected, the findings, based on a study of 21,000 UK healthcare workers, suggested that herd immunity could already be slowing the course of the pandemic. However, scientists warned that they still did not know how long immunity lasted.
“What that’s saying to us is that prior infection looks as good as the vaccine, at least at this time interval, which is very good news for the population,” said Susan Hopkins, deputy director of the national infections service at Public Health England (PHE). “It will help alongside the vaccine to give a level of immunity and protection that will start to reduce transmission.”

there's no discussion anywhere about the food for patients in hospital. The lack of interest about food is a fail of hospitals.
