The UK governemnt concluded a vitamin D study over 6 months ago and they still haven't released the results. If this was a study on one of the vaccines it would have been published and all over the news in seconds.

But then your argument is one of "I don't trust the government" not "There's no data yet".
Sure, it feels it's less urgent. No doubt. But vaccination stopped smallpox and polio not vitamins.
I looked into vitamin D before. There is some proof giving it to people in ICU works.
As preventive for any disease / cancer it's hit and miss. Some people say government blood levels are too low, we should always take it.
But there's no hard proof at all. Unless your blood levels are really too low.
Mate of ours felt rubbish, his blood levels were low, doc put him on vitamin D he's ok now.I take cod liver oil but I found omega 3 helps my brain / reduces discomfort in my gammy hip. My husband takes it, his levels were lowish.
But I don't expect on routine vitamin D to be a miracle.
Now in the USA but D fortification is standard, perhaps someone drew conclusions from a study there?

There isn't very good evidence vitamin D helps =if your levels are already good= there is research I think in Finland but it has not yet concluded.
It's sad to see so many young healthy people lining up for these jabs with little to no understanding of them: Well, it is a bit more nuanced one you are younger yes. The risk of death is surely lower, and as a young man there is a risk of myocarditis.
But there is also the long covid risk. ONS estimates aren't so great, 1% at least, of course usually it fades after a while, but some people still cannot work after a year. Now it is a low risk, but I don't fancy that myself...
To me it was simple: AZ has a risk of blood clotting, we know a rough figure. Covid has a risk of long covid =untreatable= and death (for me probably roughly the same as the jab) so adding it up, I rather had a jab I know where I am rather than a guesstimate on Covid.
