I'm not aware from the article of how the illness "schizophrenia" foreshadows all of mental health. My illness being Gender Dysphoria.

Vitamin D deficiency from what I've read is common everywhere. It does make sense that longer winters would impact a person such as staying inside more. Yet I doubt any evidence can confirm lack of Vitamin D is associated with the illness schizophrenia.

Ah, yeah, that's a good point. Schizophrenia is probably a poor proxy for all mental illness.

And there's probably at least quite a few things that aren't mental illness that benefit from mental healthcare.
