My dad was admitted about a week ago. His white blood cell count was 16,800, but it's normal now. However, the Widal test came back positive at 1:160. He's on treatment with Pipzo 4.5g injections, Pantop, Ns 500ml, Nurostar injections, and taking Calpol 650 and Cefuroxime 500 twice a day. Is this the right approach? I'm a bit worried and could use some guidance.

I'm curious if it's safe to take 60,000 IU of vitamin D every week. With the lockdown and winter coming, I'm not getting much sun exposure. Can you advise?
Yes, taking 60,000 IU of vitamin D per week is generally safe for most people, especially if you're deficient, but it's important to follow your doctor's recommendation and monitor your levels. Since you're not getting enough sun exposure, this supplementation can help maintain optimal levels, but always keep track of any symptoms and consult your doctor regularly.
