I would like to start developing a zinc awareness and fortification program with the CDC, FDA, etc, like we did with Folic Acid.
The goal of this program would be to increase baseline Zinc levels in all people to improve immune system function to better combat communal pathogens as well as disease processes, including carcinogenesis.
Kindly check https://www.who.int/docs/default-source/micronutrients/gff-part-4-en.pdf?sfvrsn=cdd21d48_2

I'm hoping for positive results from studies on zinc and covid that are forthcoming. I would like to gather all the studies and write a petition letter and send it to the CDC. I'm not sure who specifically would be the best to send the letter to but was thinking maybe Dr Godfrey Oakley, Jr and Dr Berry who worked to get folic acid fortification going.
Any suggestions or important articles on zinc, feel free to post them.
