How to use GetKeyDown function?

I'm following a tutorial about health bar and mana being affected by GetKeyDown function. For some reason when I press "I" or "O" nothing occurs. Even my characters movements are immobile.

I've tried backtracking and even changing the health stats. The tutorial is from this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8StwNBJ5fE8

    [SerializeField]
    private Stat health;

    [SerializeField]
    private Stat mana;


    private float initHealth = 100;
    private float initMana = 50; 
    protected override void Start()
    {


        health.Initialize(initHealth, initHealth);
        mana.Initialize(initMana, initMana);

        base.Update();
    }



    private void GetInput()
    {
        direction = Vector2.zero;//reset direction 

        if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.I))
        {
            health.MyCurrentValue -= 10;
            mana.MyCurrentValue -= 10;

        }
        if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.O))
        {
            health.MyCurrentValue += 10;
            mana.MyCurrentValue += 10;
        }

        if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.W))
        {
            direction += Vector2.up;
        }

        if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.A))
        {
            direction += Vector2.left;
        }

        if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.S))
        {
            direction += Vector2.down;
        }

        if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.D))
        {
            direction += Vector2.right;
        }

    }
}

Calling the function in the Update() function should produce the desired results if I am understanding your question correctly.

EDIT: Erased unnecessary response
