“…Furthermore, vitamin D is able to suppress among the immunomodulatory effects of vitamin D its ability to increase Treg cells and suppress Th17; the latter produce Il-17 and have been implicated in the pathogenesis of various autoimmune diseases ( 57 - 59 ). Several studies indicate an important role of vitamin D as an immunomodulator and in increasing the response capacity of the innate immune system against pathogens ( 60 - 62 ).…”

“…The COVID‐19 vaccination program must be supported worldwide, especially in countries with low vaccination rate, which will be an effective strategy for preventing the virus circulation as well as the emergence of its novel VOCs (Islam et al, 2022 ; Mattiuzzi & Lippi, 2022 ). The COVID‐19 case fatality rate is not fixed but it changes with population, time, and other socioeconomic factors along with the mitigatory efforts of the countries (Ghayda et al, 2022 ). In some regions, vaccine hesitancy is observed which may be another possible reason for this never ending pandemic.…”
